Via Roma
Via Roma is known locally for its stunning skylight and enclosed galleria. Retail wise, it’s in a state of flux. Stuart Doppelt, owner of H.T. Stuart and Co., has purchased three shops inside the via and plans to fill it with commerce as vibrant as the environment.

Via Demario
This via is shaded in palms, speckled with fountains, and covered in romantic overhead walkways. Our favorite way to spend an afternoon in Via Demario? Grabbing a casual lunch at Café Delamar before trying on pair after pair of handmade sandals at Via Capri, 34.
