If the citizens and business community could have had this choice, which would they have taken. I guess people would have favored the streetscape on Miracle Mile that would have generated real business and signal a big change in a tired look of the city and not the Museum that will surely generate more and more city spending.

The visitors are not coming because of the absence of the new street-scape. It is the absence of relevant businesses, lack of a friendly environment and a missing leadership in shaping the kinds of business that are needed, and, please, not more tall buildings.
Friends, you will get more taxes from Mr. Rosenblatt.
But the biggest challenge of the BID still remains: getting the Streetscape Project off the paper before it is too late and visitors of downtown Coral Gables move to other sites. “We have to make sure we get this project done before downtown starts to underperform, Rosenblatt said. “We will have to partner up with city and residents so this is a priority that happens for everybody.

I would say that that record belongs to UM–looks like a bunch of trick-or-treaters. To get respect with those uniforms they will have to play much, much better.

This letter summarizes why change in needed on the city commission and in the mayor’s office.
While this seems all too obvious to repeat, our government has a management crisis, a financial crisis and a confidence crisis, and the city has a business crisis. The policy of “wait and see” is the current government strategy and is at risk of creating even greater unfunded financial liabilities for the taxpayers.
In short, the city of Coral Gables is in decline.
It’s time for changes in City Hall
