Located
in the heart of trendy Coconut
Grove, this open-air
multi-level "shoppertainment" complex is a
sophisticated and festive melting pot of
international music, eateries, and stores.
A
pioneer in perfecting the urban entertainment
concept, CocoWalk is an international prototype for
the shopping center of the future. Extensive
resources were put into this location in the center
of the village to make it comfortable for local
residents. Tourists naturally followed. Open seven
days a week, visitors will find nearly 40 brand-name
and independent shops, including Victoria’s
Secret, Blockbuster Music, Banana Republic, and The
Cheesecake Factory. If you like white clothes, stop
at the White House; if you dress in black, drop by
the Black Market. Ground-level kiosks bulge with
beads, incense, herbs, and cigars. Upstairs are the
restaurants and nightspots, which stay hopping until
2am. The spacious and welcoming brick-paved
courtyard plays host to live music every night and
on weekends. There is always something to keep your
attention. Bands and musicians perform inside the
nightclubs and in the courtyard. Artists, musicians,
sports stars, and visiting celebrities stroll
through the beautiful terraces, which are
highlighted with Victorian-style lamps.
Outdoor
cafes grace every level, inviting guests to enjoy
the tropical sea breezes. Second-floor Tu Tu Tango,
an indoor/outdoor restaurant and bar, resembles a
starving artist’s studio in Spain. Blank canvases
hang from the ceiling and original paintings dot the
walls. Local artists paint at their easels in the
middle of the mayhem.
CocoWalk
works closely with the community, including a nearby
elementary school. School kids are hosted at various
events throughout the year and were invited to paint
a barrier wall that was built during contraction of
a new parking garage.
The
elegant pink and beige mall off Grand Avenue houses
an AMC cinemaplex, an Automated Teller Machine, and
features covered parking.
