WHAT'S IN THE NEWS ABOUT THE GABLES
Political Showdown

Celebrity Neighbor
Elle Macpherson's Home
Supermodel Elle Macpherson bought a 7 bed, 6.5 bath, 9,000 square foot home in Coral Gables last month for $8.1 million. It’s the second celebrity home purchase here in recent months, following the July purchase of a $19 million mansion by singer Marc Anthony. No media, including Architectural Digest, revealed the location. But we found it on Journey’s End Road, off the gated community along Old Cutler. Howdy, neighbor.
