relatively newer outdoor mall, several levels, nice ambiance.  if you're comparing the store directory with Bal Harbour, Bal Harbour still wins hands down for upscale.  however there are some stores here that are not at Bal Harbour, i.e. Coach, Burberry, Carolina Herrera, Faconnable, Furla, La Perla

A great collection of upscale stores in Coral Gables.

While some might think of this outdoor mall as Bal Harbour South it is actually a different animal. Merrick Park has a residential side, yes some people really do call the mall home.

Merrick Park has an Equinox gym and a Borders bookstore so there is something for everyone. And the gym boasts healthy snacking options.

This is a great, alternative option for happy hour gatherings with large groups. The Nordstrom bistro is perfect for lunch with friends who work in the area.

There is limited street parking but if you're on a schedule then head to the garage.

Classy and upscale shops. This is definitely a well needed mall in this community. It caters to the professional and wealthy communities around it. The shops are top notch and the restaurants are the best in the area. Definitely worth a visit, enjoy outdoor dining by or drink a bottle of wine in a breezy Miami afternoon, or enjoy lunch at the Nordstroms restaurant. A visit to Merrick Park will energize you and lift your spirits. Come see for yourself.

This is a beautiful place to walk around in, and I'm sure it's an amazing mall for some people, but I wouldn't dare open my wallet here. It is very upscale and only has shops intended for the extremely wealthy like Gucci and Neiman Marcus.  I did buy my mother a gift here once, but I've never shopped for myself here.  I love the way it looks though and I like just sitting on the benches and taking in the scene.

Burberry. Gucci. Neiman Marcus. Tiffany's. Diane Von Furstenberg.  I prefer Merrick Park over Bal Harbour because the sales folks I've encountered were actually nice and hardly snobbish unlike BH. The Nordstrom's at this location has very good sales, more so then the Nordstrom at Dadeland, fyi.  The place is laid out like a park so lotsa green space and open benches to just enjoy a beautiful day.  And if you're only here for a quick perusal, try the metered parking thats on Ponce De Leon, on Sundays the meters are free.

Spanky new and upscale enclosed outdoor shopping mall that rivals the famed Bal Harbour Shops.

People come here to do their expensive shopping and to dine in its numerous restaurants and cafes.

Photogenic place, visit it at least once even though there may not be much to do. Just stop by to eat at least to take in the beauty! I'm sure it will become lively as soon as the condos and lofts are filled up in this area.

Parking: $5; Metrorail station nearby with Coral Gables trolley that is able to drop you off here and take you back.
