Coconut Grove
Coconut Grove was founded in 1873 by an eclectic mix of pioneers, artists, intellectuals and adventurers. Located in the heart of Miami, the tropical oasis offers a warm, laid-back atmosphere and features charming boutiques, galleries, gourmet restaurants, sidewalk cafes and sailboats, anchored at the bay.
Hugging the shoreline of Biscayne Bay, Coconut Grove is an upscale, leafy neighborhood with relaxed sidewalk cafes and chic shops in and around the CocoWalk mall. The area's several green spaces include bay-front Barnacle Historic State Park and Vizcaya Museum and Gardens, while sailing clubs and marinas dot the waterfront.
A Ventrue, Tremere, and Toreador hotspot, the upscale, wealthy humans and amenities are welcomed by the creatures who prey on those of bluer blood.
For the changelings, sidhe and trolls find the area appealing for two wholly separate reasons: for the sidhe, it is as affluent and luxurious as their little hearts could ever dream of. For the trolls, made of wholly more stalwart stuff, they find the numerous guard, security, and police jobs available comforting - though the Banality does wear thin on them eventually.
