Mondrian Gold Coast officially opened on June 10, 2025, introducing the Mondrian brand to Australia for the first time. Situated in Burleigh Heads, the 208-key beachfront hotel sits along one of Queensland’s most iconic stretches of coastline. The property is part of a larger mixed-use development, which also includes 83 private residences housed in a neighboring tower. Mondrian Gold Coast was developed in partnership with Vitale Property Group and is operated by Ennismore , Accor’s largest and fastest-growing lifestyle hospitality company. Rendering of Mondrian Gold Coast, Fraser & Partners The hotel’s architecture was originally conceived by Elenberg Fraser , with the final design and execution completed by Fraser & Partners under the guidance of founding and lead architect Callum Fraser . Interior accommodation spaces were shaped by California-based Studio Carter while the lobby, LiTO restaurant, and poolside venue Haven were completed by Sydney’s Alexander & CO . Accommodations include 132 studios, 63 suites, 10 two- and three-bedroom homes with full kitchens and open-plan living areas, two private beach houses with plunge pools, and the Sky House —a residential-style penthouse occupying the entire 24th floor with a chef’s kitchen, private bar, and five-meter-high windows framing panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean. On the ground floor, LiTO brings a relaxed yet refined coastal Italian dining experience, led by Italian-born Head Chef Andrea Morigi. Open all day, the restaurant serves wood-fired breads, hand-rolled pastas, and tableside tiramisu alongside an elevated drink menu. Upstairs on the third floor, Haven offers a seafood-forward menu curated by Executive Chef Aaron Teece, with a focus on regional sourcing and woodfire cooking. The venue includes indoor dining and poolside service, complete with private cabanas, live music, and an agave-forward cocktail menu. The hotel offers a wellness and lifestyle program designed to meet the expectations of today’s performance-focused traveler. CIEL Spa features a curated mix of treatments, rituals, and bio-wellness therapies, integrating global skincare brands such as Augustinus Bader , Synergie Skin , and Knesko . The spa’s advanced offerings include Hydrafacial, microneedling, infrared sauna, red light and polythermal light beds, zero gravity and cryo-therapy dry float treatments, a Himalayan salt room, and a cosmetic medical suite. An Australian-first scalp and hair therapy powered by Augustinus Bader’s patented TCF8® technology is also available. The Movement Studio, located beside the spa, supports strength and performance training through goal-driven modalities. Additional facilities include a 24-meter resort-style pool, magnesium-infused plunge pools, and 20 flexible event venues across four levels, including the Mondrian Ballroom and sky-high VeeRoom. Cultural programming is a defining feature of the property, with an evolving calendar of music showcases, artist collaborations, and community-rooted experiences planned year-round. With its beachfront setting, design-led approach, and balance of culinary, wellness, and cultural offerings, Mondrian Gold Coast aims to set a new standard for hospitality on Australia’s iconic surf coast.

A massive upgrade to one of the nation's busiest transit corridors is officially underway. The Hudson Tunnel Project—part of the broader Gateway Program—is moving forward with a $16 billion plan to construct a new rail tunnel beneath the Hudson River while rehabilitating the existing 115-year-old structure that links New York and New Jersey. Led by the bi-state Gateway Development Commission, the project is backed by federal, New York, and New Jersey agencies to enhance reliability along the Northeast Corridor. The new two-tube tunnel will stretch from North Bergen through Hoboken and Jersey City, connecting directly to Penn Station in Manhattan via nine miles of new track. In tandem, the current tunnel—damaged by Superstorm Sandy and a persistent source of delays—will be taken offline for full rehabilitation once the new tubes are operational. Construction activity is already underway across both states, with work progressing on the Tonnelle Avenue Bridge and utility relocations in New Jersey, as well as ground stabilization and tunnel box construction at Hudson Yards. Tunnel boring beneath the Palisades is set to begin in 2026. Beyond critical infrastructure upgrades, the Hudson Tunnel Project is expected to drive nearly $20 billion in regional economic impact and support approximately 95,000 jobs, according to the Gateway Development Commission. Carrying more than 200,000 daily passengers, the Northeast Corridor plays an outsized role in the U.S. economy. Once complete, the new tunnel will ease congestion, reduce delays, and secure a resilient link between Manhattan and New Jersey for generations.

In a region defined by unspoiled beauty and luminous turquoise waters, Aman is preparing to unveil its first destination in The Bahamas— Amancaya —set across two of the Exumas’ most secluded private cays. Spread across 400 acres of untouched terrain, this forthcoming retreat marks a significant new chapter for the brand, marrying Aman’s signature sense of stillness with one of the Caribbean’s most pristine archipelagos. Image of Amancaya, Aman Resorts Named after the Taíno phrase for “peaceful island,” Amancaya will introduce a 36-pavilion resort alongside a highly limited collection of Aman Residences—each a modern sanctuary immersed in nature. These residences will be the first of their kind in The Bahamas for the brand, offering discerning buyers the opportunity to own a private villa designed with Aman’s core principles of serenity, space, and discretion. Each home, ranging from three to five bedrooms, will be seamlessly integrated into the landscape, oriented to maximize privacy and uninterrupted ocean views. True to Aman’s design philosophy, the architecture will emphasize harmony between indoor and outdoor living—clean lines, natural materials, and fluid transitions from shaded verandas to sun-drenched terraces. The result is a retreat that doesn’t impose on the landscape, but rather exists in dialogue with it. Beyond the residences, owners will enjoy privileged access to the full spectrum of resort amenities. A world-class Aman Spa will offer holistic wellness programs in a setting framed by sea and sky, while the Beach Club promises barefoot luxury along powder-white shores. A private marina will serve as the gateway to the surrounding cays, and a curated selection of dining venues—spanning both islands—will reflect the brand’s global culinary excellence, reinterpreted with Bahamian flavor and flair. Image of Amancaya, Aman Resorts For divers, boaters, and travelers who prize both escape and elegance, Amancaya is a rare opportunity: a place where time slows, the ocean stretches in every direction, and the Aman experience reaches new horizons. With its remote setting, refined design, and intimate scale, it’s not just a resort—it’s the beginning of a new era of Caribbean luxury. As Aman expands its global footprint, Amancaya joins a growing list of transformative new destinations. In Mexico, Amanvari is set to open soon on the East Cape of the Baja Peninsula, offering a tranquil sanctuary where the desert meets the Sea of Cortés. Further east, Aman Niseko in Japan will bring the brand’s unmistakable aesthetic to the slopes of Mount Moiwa in Hokkaido—pairing minimalist architecture with access to world-class skiing and year-round alpine beauty. These upcoming properties reflect Aman’s continued commitment to creating rare places of profound calm and connection, each rooted in its own unique landscape yet unified by a philosophy of space, privacy, and timeless design.

Nashville’s dining scene reached a new high this week as Jake Howell, chef and co-owner of Peninsula , was named Best Chef: Southeast  at the 2025 James Beard Awards in Chicago. The recognition places Howell among the most elite chefs in the country and marks the first win in nearly a decade for a Nashville-based chef, following Tandy Wilson’s 2016 win for City House. Image of Jake Howell, Peninsula Nashville Tucked into a quiet corner of East Nashville, Peninsula has quietly built a national reputation since opening in 2017. Howell, along with partners Craig Schoen and Yuriko Say—who first worked together in Seattle—has developed a restaurant that defies expectations. The 38-seat spot serves a minimalist, ever-evolving menu rooted in the cuisines of the Iberian Peninsula—Spanish, Portuguese, and Basque—elevated with French techniques and a dose of culinary intuition that feels as much improvisational as it is deliberate. Image of Peninsula Nashville With only a handful of dishes on the menu at any given time and just three dinner services per week, Peninsula has become one of the city’s most sought-after reservations. Ingredients are often listed without much explanation, inviting diners to trust in the kitchen’s creativity—whether it’s a hauntingly good vegan strawberry broth or one of Schoen’s meticulously crafted gin and tonic pairings. Image of Peninsula Nashville Howell’s win was hard-earned, standing out among a strong field of regional finalists including chefs from Asheville, Louisville, West Columbia, and Paducah. For Nashville, the win reaffirms what locals have long known: Peninsula isn’t just one of the city’s best restaurants—it’s one of the South’s most compelling dining experiences, period.

A new 22,000-seat soccer stadium is set to anchor The 78 , a $7–8 billion mixed-use district transforming 62 acres of long-vacant land just south of Roosevelt Road. The privately funded venue—backed by Chicago Fire FC owner and Morningstar founder Joe Mansueto—marks a major milestone not only for the club, but for the city’s future skyline and civic infrastructure. Rendering of Chicago Fire FC, Gensler Designed by Gensler and slated to break ground in 2026, the stadium will debut in time for the 2028 MLS season with striking riverfront views and a modern-industrial design inspired by Chicago’s architectural legacy. Key features include a grass pitch set within a purpose-built bowl, 50 suites, 500+ loge seats, 3,500 club seats, and a 2,000-person supporters’ section—delivering a high-energy, open-air matchday experience. Rendering of Chicago Fire FC, Gensler The project stands out for its private financing, contrasting with previously proposed sports developments—including the White Sox’s scrapped bid for a stadium and casino on this same site. With public opposition and taxpayer concerns off the table, the Fire’s stadium has drawn momentum and widespread support. Rendering of Chicago Fire FC, Gensler It’s also the centerpiece of The 78’s  Phase 1, a master-planned neighborhood by Related Midwest featuring residential towers, retail, office space, cultural venues, and a half-mile riverwalk. A $450 million TIF allocation will support vital infrastructure across the site, including new pedestrian bridges, public plazas, and a two-story parking podium topped with green space. Rendering of Chicago Fire FC, Gensler Beyond soccer, the venue is envisioned as a year-round destination for concerts, festivals, clinics, corporate events, and more—aimed at activating the area well beyond matchdays. MLS Commissioner Don Garber called the project “one of the most ambitious” in league history, positioning it as a pivotal moment for the sport’s future in Chicago. Rendering of Chicago Fire FC, Gensler If completed on schedule, the stadium will open in 2028 as the centerpiece of a dynamic new riverfront district—one that redefines how sports, urban design, and civic identity intersect in America’s third-largest city.

China Merchants Bank is nearing completion of its striking new global headquarters in Shenzhen Bay—a 1,289-foot tower designed by Foster + Partners that will anchor the city’s emerging Super Headquarters Base. Topped out in 2024 and slated to open in 2025, the 77-story skyscraper is accompanied by a second 591-foot hotel and commercial building, forming a seamless corporate campus along the waterfront. Image of China Merchants Bank HQ, Foster+Partners The headquarters will bring 13,000 employees together under one roof, with open floorplates, soaring double-height sky atriums, and a dramatic observatory garden near the crown. Its design draws inspiration from natural rock formations and traditional Chinese paper folding, with facades that shift between clean bay-window geometry and angular glass folds that shimmer with the light. From sunrise to sunset, the building’s sculptural form constantly transforms with its surroundings. Image of China Merchants Bank HQ, Foster+Partners Throughout the interior, flexibility was a guiding principle. By placing offset twin cores on either side of the structure, the architects eliminated the need for interior columns—freeing up the floorplates for a variety of workspace configurations and unbroken views. This structural decision also allowed the tower to be lifted off the ground, making space for shaded, open-air public areas and a landscaped plaza that blurs the line between corporate and civic space. The upper levels are punctuated by double-height sky gardens—lush, light-filled spaces that offer a moment of calm high above the bay. The building’s ability to breathe—quite literally—is one of its most forward-thinking features. A unique structural system, paired with smart column profiling, allows natural cross-ventilation on every floor. When conditions are right, fresh air flows through the workspace without reliance on mechanical systems, improving occupant comfort while reducing energy use. These strategies are paired with real-time building sensors that calibrate lighting and temperature based on occupancy and sunlight—quietly optimizing the indoor environment without anyone noticing. Rendering of China Merchants Bank HQ, Foster+Partners Environmental performance wasn’t an afterthought—it was baked into every design move. The project achieved China’s top green building certification and includes a long list of integrated systems: rainwater capture and filtration, permeable paving to prevent runoff, sponge-city-inspired landscaping, and the use of low-emission materials. Even the facades were computationally modeled to mitigate glare and solar heat gain, shifting form to respond to the building’s orientation and time of day. Rendering of China Merchants Bank HQ, Foster+Partners At street level, the tower connects to a vibrant network of urban plazas, cultural venues, and a luxury hotel, all seamlessly linked to the Shenzhen Metro. A central pedestrian axis ties the campus to a larger waterfront park system, reinforcing the site’s accessibility and civic presence. Its location in the 117-hectare Super Headquarters Base—home to future flagships for Tencent, JD.com, and others—cements its role in the Greater Bay Area’s rise as a world-class innovation corridor. For China Merchants Bank, this project marks a return to its roots. Founded in nearby Shekou in 1987, the bank now makes a bold statement about its future—investing in a workplace that blends cutting-edge design with the energy of a city on the move. In a skyline filled with ambition, the new headquarters stands as both a beacon for business and a reflection of Shenzhen’s momentum as one of Asia’s most dynamic destinations.

After an eight-year closure and a $2 billion restoration, the Waldorf Astoria New York officially reopened on July 15, 2025, reasserting its place as one of Manhattan’s most iconic addresses. The revival marks a historic chapter for the legendary hotel, which first opened in 1931 and has now been reintroduced with a refined vision that respects its Art Deco roots while elevating the guest experience for a new era. Image of Waldorf Astoria New York Once home to 1,400 rooms, the reimagined hotel now features 375 generously sized guest rooms and suites—most exceeding 570 square feet. The upper floors have been converted into 372 private condominiums under the Waldorf Astoria Residences brand. Skidmore, Owings & Merrill led the architectural transformation, with interiors designed by Jean-Louis Deniot and furnishings by B&B Italia. Image of Waldorf Astoria New York Suite Hotel rooms were redesigned by Pierre-Yves Rochon, blending historic mosaic details and Art Deco influences with modern custom furniture and richly veined marble bathrooms. Image of Waldorf Astoria New York The reopening also brings three new dining venues to life, each open to guests, residents, and locals. Lex Yard, a brasserie from Gramercy Tavern’s Michael Anthony, serves a seasonal American menu featuring Waldorf classics and elevated comfort dishes. Peacock Alley returns beneath the hotel’s iconic lobby clock as a cocktail lounge, while Yoshoku introduces a Japanese kaiseki-inspired concept in a serene, gallery-like setting. Later this year, the Waldorf’s Grand Ballroom and meeting spaces will reopen on September 1, restoring the hotel’s legacy as a premier venue for events and social gatherings. A new Guerlain Wellness Spa, expected to span over 20,000 square feet, will debut before year’s end, completing the hotel's transformation into a full-service destination. Image of Waldorf Astoria New York With original architectural details like the Wheel of Life mosaic and bronze elevator surrounds carefully preserved, the Waldorf Astoria reemerges not as a reinvention—but as a timeless return. In every detail, the hotel invites guests to experience the enduring grandeur of a New York landmark, restored with precision and purpose.

Launching in October 2026, Orient Express Corinthian will redefine tropical voyages as the world’s largest sailing yacht brings 54 suites of refined elegance to the Caribbean. Designed for travelers craving an intimate, purposeful alternative to traditional cruises, the vessel fuses classic French styling with contemporary naval engineering and is now open for reservations.

Dynamic positioning preserves coral reefs and seabeds, ensuring every journey leaves only gentle wakes behind.

Miami‑Dade’s booming construction sector is powering its economy, with employment reaching record levels for five months running. In June, the county recorded 63,400 construction jobs, representing an 8.2% increase year-over-year, according to Miami Today —dramatically outpacing both statewide and national growth. Over the past decade, the local construction workforce has grown more than 57%, rising from approximately 40,200 jobs in 2015 to over 63,000 today. As cranes dot the skyline, it’s clear that construction isn’t merely supporting Miami‑Dade’s economy—it’s leading it. Image of Waldorf Astoria Hotel & Residences, Oscar Nunez This surge is fueled by a pipeline of transformative projects—from supertall residential towers to major infrastructure improvements. Leading the way is the Waldorf Astoria Hotel & Residences (300 Biscayne Blvd), Florida’s first supertall building rising to 1,049 ft across 100 stories. Construction has now surpassed one-third of its total height, advancing at a pace of one floor every ten days. The tower includes 387 residences and 205 hotel rooms, with pricing starting at $3.2 million, and an exclusive penthouse listed at $50 million. The project is expected to be completed by 2027–28. Rendering of Okan Tower Okan Tower, a 70‑story, 902‑ft mixed-use skyscraper, is on track for completion by 2027. The tower will incorporate a Hilton-operated hotel, residential units, office space, and luxury amenities. One Bayfront Plaza, approved to begin in 2025, will be a 93‑floor, 1,005 ft supertall with offices, retail, hotel, condominiums, and possibly an observation deck—poised to become the tallest tower in Miami and Florida by about 2030. Rendering of Miami Freedom Park Miami Freedom Park, the $1 billion Inter Miami CF stadium and mixed-use campus, began construction in August 2023. When complete in 2026, the project will include a 25,000-seat MLS stadium, retail, entertainment venues, hotel space, office buildings, public parkland, and youth fields—and is expected to generate over 15,000 direct and indirect jobs. Another massive mixed-use development, Upland Park, a $1 billion transit-oriented development located near Miami‑Dade’s Dolphin Transit Terminal, is already underway. When fully built, it will deliver over 2,000 apartments, 282,000 sq ft of retail, and 414,000 sq ft of commercial space. The first phase—578 apartments—is expected in 2026. Rendering of the new Miami bridge Miami's construction boom extends beyond towers—major infrastructure projects are reshaping the city. One of the most visible is the I‑395 Signature Bridge, also known as "The Fountain." Featuring six sweeping arches spanning 1,025 feet with its tallest arch reaching 325 feet, the bridge is part of the transformative Connecting Miami I‑395/SR 836/I‑95 Design‑Build Project, led by FDOT and the Miami‑Dade Expressway Authority. It aims to improve mobility, enhance safety, and connect neighborhoods like Overtown and Downtown with a new under-deck public space called Heritage Walk. While originally scheduled for completion in late 2027, delays have shifted the projected opening to late 2029, and the budget has increased to approximately $866 million. Rendering of Miami International Airport Regarding Miami International Airport, every terminal at MIA is slated to be expanded or rebuilt within six years, with the comprehensive modernization complete by 2031. The plan includes full reconstruction of the aging Central Terminal (design complete by 2027, construction to wrap by 2031), expansion projects for Concourse K (South Terminal) and Concourse D60 (North Terminal), and a major Flamingo Garage extension expected to finish in December 2025. Adding to the transformation, a 500‑room Westin hotel is scheduled to open on-site in 2027, and both new and existing terminal garages will be wrapped in sculptural stainless-steel artwork to elevate the airport’s aesthetic profile Miami‑Dade’s record-setting construction growth appears built to last—anchored by mega-projects that continue to reshape the region’s urban and economic landscape.

Veuve Clicquot has officially landed in the Hamptons. From July 1 through September 7, the legendary Champagne house has tapped Ketchy Beach — the Southampton outpost of NYC’s beloved Ketchy Shuby, located at The Capri Hotel — to host its first-ever Sun Club  pop-up in the Northeast, and its only U.S. stop outside Las Vegas. The Veuve activation lives entirely outdoors, transforming Ketchy’s poolside deck, cabanas, and lounge area into a Champagne-soaked summer destination complete with DJ sets and breezy, Riviera-inspired style.  Image of Ketchy Beach Veuve Sun Club Pop-Up The activation brings new energy to the 30-room hotel and is part of Veuve’s global Road to the Sun  tour, a series of curated summer stops known for their effortless glamour, bold design, and magnetic social scene. The arrival of the Sun Club  also signals a revival of The Capri Hotel’s legacy as one of Southampton’s iconic social hubs. Once known for attracting everyone from J.Lo to Real Housewives  cast members, the boutique hotel has been gradually reenergized with the help of hospitality tastemaker Jamie Mulholland (Surf Lodge, Cain, GoldBar). In 2023, Mulholland introduced Ketchy Shuby  — his bohemian-chic concept born in Soho — to Southampton as Ketchy Beach , aiming to create a destination rooted in community & culture. Now in its second season, Ketchy Beach  has become a lively summer staple, and the Veuve Clicquot pop-up only deepens its cultural cachet. On weekends through August 7, Sun Club  guests can expect curated day parties, rotating DJ sets from emerging and established talent, and a steady stream of Veuve served poolside in a setting that seamlessly blends Old Hamptons allure with a new-school international vibe. The pop-up reflects a broader shift across the East End, where luxury brands like LVMH are doubling down on immersive hospitality experiences that transcend traditional nightlife. With growing momentum in Southampton, Montauk, and Shelter Island, activations like Sun Club  are helping redefine what it means to summer in the Hamptons, and positioning Ketchy Shuby as a central player in that evolution.

Miami Spice is back for its 24th year—and with more than 300 participating restaurants across 20+ neighborhoods, the city’s premier dining event is bigger than ever. From August 1 through September 30, locals and visitors can enjoy three-course prix-fixe menus at many of Miami’s top restaurants for just $35 at lunch and brunch, and $45 or $60 at dinner. It’s a seasonal tradition that celebrates Miami’s culinary depth while giving diners a rare chance to experience the city’s best at a fraction of the usual price.

This year’s lineup is especially exciting, with a mix of acclaimed favorites, buzzworthy newcomers, and new experiences added into the fold. Think omakase tastings, chef collaborations, and even dinner-and-show pairings at select venues, turning the traditional prix-fixe outing into something far more immersive. Across the map, the 2025 roster includes Michelin-starred dining rooms like COTE Miami, Estiatorio Milos, and Stubborn Seed, alongside first-time participants like CLAUDIE, Palm Tree Club, and Lucky Cat by Gordon Ramsay. Whether you’re booking a rooftop dinner in South Beach, a waterfront lunch in North Bay Village, or a quiet evening in Coral Gables, there’s never been a better time to explore Miami’s food scene. Image of Estiatorio Milos, South Beach In the heart of South of Fifth, Estiatorio Milos  continues to set the standard for Mediterranean fine dining with its signature focus on pristine ingredients and timeless simplicity. The Miami Spice menu reads like a highlight reel: start with Greek ceviche or grilled octopus, then move on to the Dorade Royale or charred lamb chops, finishing with classic Greek yogurt topped with honey and walnuts.

Stubborn Seed, Jeremy Ford’s Michelin-starred South of Fifth gem, rounds out the lineup with inventive, high-wire dishes crafted with chef’s table precision. Rendering of CLAUDIE, Brickell In Brickell, CLAUDIE  channels the warmth and romance of the French Riviera with a Spice menu that’s just as thoughtful as the setting. Dishes like black angus tenderloin and branzino carpaccio lead into a lavender crème brûlée finale—each plate capturing the sun-drenched spirit of Southern France with Miami polish. Other neighborhood standouts include Delilah, a roaring ‘20s-inspired supper club that blends live jazz, glamour, and tableside theatrics; Gekko, a moody Japanese steakhouse co-created by Bad Bunny; and Rosa Negra, where Latin flair, fire shows, and fine dining collide in one of the district’s liveliest rooms. Image of Salty Flame, Brickell Salty Flame , Brickell’s newest steakhouse with Asian influences, balances innovation and comfort with a refined menu that’s already drawing attention.

With boat slips out front and a relaxed indoor-outdoor layout, it’s one of the most unique settings in this year’s lineup. Start with a lobster Cobb or salmon sushi rice, then move on to crispy fish tacos or a double Wagyu smash burger—each course designed to keep things playful, fresh, and just indulgent enough. Whether you’re arriving by car or boat, it’s the kind of place that feels like summer distilled into a meal. Image of MIKA, Coral Gables Coral Gables brings plenty of Spice-worthy options this year, but a few truly stand out. Located at The Plaza, MIKA  blends Italian tradition with Riviera-style elegance, offering fresh pastas, grilled branzino, and what might just be one of Miami’s best beef tartare.  Over on Royal Poinciana Way, Bouchon Bistro delivers French classics from Thomas Keller’s team in a dreamy, mosaic-tiled setting—where croque madames, soupe du jour, and bouchon brownies make for a lunch or dinner that feels timeless. Image of Fairways at The Biltmore Hotel Tucked into the grounds of the iconic Biltmore Hotel, Fairways at The Biltmore  offers one of the more scenic Spice experiences in town. With views of banyan trees and quiet golf greens, the menu leans hearty but elegant—think shrimp and grits, grilled churrasco, and a tropical Key lime pie layered with passionfruit and toasted meringue. If you’re looking for calm, cool, and classic Miami, this is it. Image of COTE Miami In the Design District, COTE Miami  delivers a Korean steakhouse experience like no other, with smokeless grills, dry-aged cuts, and Michelin-level polish at every turn. Their Spice menu offers a taste of the signature “Butcher’s Feast,” along with house-made banchan and that famous soft serve to finish. Elastika, located in the historic Moore Building, is equally striking—its airy, art-driven interior setting the stage for globally inspired dishes that look as good as they taste. In Wynwood, Pastis brings a slice of Paris to Miami, with red leather banquettes, sidewalk tables, and a courtyard perfect for a lingering lunch or dinner. From onion soup to steak frites and chocolate mousse, the menu is a reminder that bistro food, done right, never goes out of style. It’s also one of the few places offering both lunch and dinner options for Spice—making it a flexible go-to no matter the day. From South Beach to Aventura, Downtown to Doral, this year’s Miami Spice celebration is more than just a deal—it’s an invitation to explore, discover, and rediscover what makes this city one of the most dynamic dining destinations in the country. Whether you’re booking a tasting menu at a Michelin-starred icon or walking into a neighborhood gem for the first time, this is your moment to eat like a local, try something bold, and taste what’s next.

Salt & Cider is set to feature an all-day, globally inspired menu in a casual setting. Additional venues include Hi Tide Rooftop Bar with a menu of raw and cured items, Lo Tide Pool Bar & Restaurant serving Mexican-inspired drinks and grilled fare, and the Lobby Bar offering cocktails and light bites. Guests will be within close reach of the island’s major outdoor attractions, including paddleboarding routes, Stingray City , Rum Point , and the Wreck of the Gamma dive site located just offshore. While several public-facing announcements continue to cite a fall 2025 opening, Hyatt’s official booking site is currently accepting reservations beginning April 1, 2026.

A new chapter is unfolding along the shores of Clear Lake in West Palm Beach, where a once-overlooked stretch of waterfront is emerging as one of the city’s most dynamic and connected districts. What was long considered a transitional zone is now the focus of major institutional investment, infrastructure upgrades, and thoughtfully scaled residential development. At the center of this momentum is The Berkeley Palm Beach —a 25-story condominium tower designed by Arquitectonica and developed by Al Adelson, the visionary behind The Bristol. Rather than replicate the boutique scale of its predecessor, The Berkeley takes a more expansive and livable approach, offering 193 for-sale residences with flow-through layouts, refined interiors, and the largest private terraces in the Palm Beaches. Its setting—just west of downtown—positions it squarely within one of West Palm’s fastest-growing and most strategically planned neighborhoods. Rendering of the next-door Cleveland Clinic One of the clearest signals of long-term investment in the district is the Cleveland Clinic’s $500 million expansion, which includes a 150-bed hospital and a new outpatient center just blocks from The Berkeley. It marks the health system’s first inpatient facility in downtown West Palm Beach in over a century and sets a tone for sustained civic and healthcare-driven growth. Vanderbilt University is also setting down roots downtown with a cutting-edge graduate campus planned near South Tamarind Avenue and Fern Street. Local and county officials have donated a total of seven acres for what will be a roughly 300,000-square-foot academic complex led by Elkus Manfredi Architects. The design features a mass-timber Executive Education building, an Academic & Innovation facility, rooftop solar panels, and a tropical arboretum showcasing native South Florida species—emphasizing sustainability, collaboration, and connection to place. Map of Vanderbilt West Palm Beach Campus With programming focused on business, data science, AI, and engineering, and capacity to serve around 1,000 graduate-level students, this will mark Vanderbilt’s first physical presence outside Tennessee. Fundraising is underway with construction expected by 2029, if not sooner. Rendering of Fern Street Extension, City of WPB At the same time, the City is moving forward with the Fern Street extension—a long-awaited east-west connection that will link downtown directly to Australian Avenue, easing congestion and improving daily access to I-95 and Palm Beach International Airport. These kinds of infrastructure improvements aren’t just cosmetic; they’re game-changing for both livability and long-term value. Rendering of The Berkeley's Rooftop Pool The CRA remains committed to supporting the redevelopment of the site known as the “wedge piece,” located just west of the Seaboard Train Station. This parcel, designated by Palm Beach County as the future site of an Intermodal Facility, has been transferred to the South Florida Regional Transit Authority (SFRTA) to guide its redevelopment. The vision for the Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) centers on creating a walkable neighborhood village with a mix of uses, green pathways, and active public plazas—all seamlessly integrated with pedestrian and transit connections. Proposed components include a multimodal transit hub, a range of housing options (including workforce, market-rate, rental, and ownership), educational facilities, government and office space, hotel accommodations, retail, and structured parking. The CRA is actively collaborating with the developer to explore public incentives that will support the project's community-serving elements. Rendering of The Berkeley Fitness Center The Berkeley is uniquely positioned to benefit from this evolution. It offers the only new luxury condominium product directly fronting Clear Lake, delivering a level of design and finish that feels rooted in the legacy of The Bristol, but scaled for today’s needs. Residences feature Italian-crafted Snaidero kitchens, spa-inspired bathrooms, smart-building features, and floorplans that emphasize indoor-outdoor living. The amenity program spans three levels, including a rooftop pool deck, private cabanas, wellness studios, children’s areas, and even a golf simulator—all supported by full-time concierge and valet teams. A fully furnished model is now open on the 9th floor of the on-site Sales Gallery, giving prospective buyers a clear sense of the lifestyle already taking shape. The Clear Lake District offers walkable proximity to the Kravis Center, The Square, Eataly (coming this fall), and the new Vanderbilt University graduate campus. It also sits at the edge of a proposed 36-acre transit-oriented development surrounding the historic Seaboard Train Station—a future hub that could connect Brightline, Tri-Rail, and regional transit in a way that redefines how West Palm Beach moves. Rendering of The Berkeley Interiors As West Palm continues to mature into one of Florida’s most ambitious and well-connected urban centers, the Clear Lake district stands out for its balance of scale, accessibility, and long-term investment. And at the heart of it, The Berkeley offers more than just a new residential option—it offers a chance to be part of a neighborhood on the rise.

Strategic Property Partners , the developer behind the $3 billion Water Street Tampa district, has officially filed plans for a new 124-foot-tall building. The mixed-use project, slated for completion by late 2027, will include 38,000 square feet of ground-floor retail, 675 parking spaces, and a signature rooftop area, all designed by renowned architecture firm Gensler. Rendering of Parking Garage, SPP Located at the northwest corner of Water Street and East Cumberland Avenue, SPP cited an immediate need for structured parking and activated retail, while keeping future office development on the table. Rendering of Broader Water Street Expansion, SPP The building is part of a broader expansion effort announced last year that includes new residential, office, and entertainment components as Water Street enters its next phase.

A refreshed sense of place now defines the 78-acre blufftop resort in Santa Barbara, as The Ritz-Carlton Bacara completes a comprehensive renovation ahead of its 25th anniversary this September. Rendering of The Ritz-Carlton Bacara Pool In collaboration with renowned design firm Meyer Davis , the multi-million dollar project touches nearly every part of the resort—from guest rooms and public spaces to dining venues and the outdoor pool deck—bringing a quieter, more tactile expression of luxury to California’s central coast. Image of The Ritz-Carlton Bacara Lobby What once served as a formal lobby has been reimagined as an open-air welcome experience—one that leans into the architecture of early coastal casitas. Framed by sculptural ironwork, native landscaping, and terracotta tones, the arrival space creates a calm transition from the road to the sea. Atmospheric lighting now guides guests from one space to the next.  The updated interiors of the 358 guest rooms reflect the natural materials and rich history of Santa Barbara. Spanish tile, carved stone, aged leather, and woven textiles are paired with custom details such as Chumash-inspired rugs and upholstered headboards by Erica Shamrock . Larger suites, including the 3,700-square-foot Channel Islands Suite, carry the palette through generous layouts and private terraces. Dining across the property has also evolved. Marisella and Lulio —join a collection that now offers a broader culinary perspective and revamped interiors. Marisella, led by Chef Danny Grant and Maple Hospitality Group , draws on Italian coastal cooking with a California lens, housed in a Spanish Mission–style structure redesigned by Studio K. Lulio, named after the Latin word for July, adds a Mediterranean point of view, with seasonal menus, coastal wines, and an open-air layout that shifts with the sun. Nearby, ‘O’ Bar & Terrace serves as a connecting point between the lobby and the Pacific, with a circular bar clad in Malibu Ceramics tile and a focus on California-inspired small plates and agave-forward cocktails.  Image of The Ritz-Carlton Bacara Pool Area The pool area has been reshaped with three zero-edge pools, expanded terraces, and new cabanas areas. SunBar offers day-to-night lite bites and cocktails along the edge of the bluff, with views that mirror the slow, steady pace of the redesign itself—intentional, enduring, and rooted in place.

A signature addition is coming to the base of downtown St. Petersburg’s tallest tower. Volta Wine + Market , founded by Michelin-starred sommelier Zach Pace and partner Rachelle Tomushev, has officially signed on as the first retail tenant at The Residences at 400 Central . Rendering Representation of Volta Wine + Market, 400 Central Set to open in a 2,000-square-foot space along Central Avenue, Volta will bring an intimate wine bar, curated grocery staples, and a globally focused bottle shop to the vibrant corridor. Designed for everyday convenience and elevated taste, the market will feature a range of offerings—from weeknight essentials to rare vintages—sourced with care from producers known for craft, place, and integrity. The space will also be available for private tastings and events, further embedding itself in the cultural heartbeat of the city. “We searched for over a year for the perfect downtown space,” said Pace and Tomushev. “Partnering with Red Apple made that search worthwhile. Whether you’re stopping in for a $20 bottle or celebrating something special, we’re excited to welcome the community to Volta with warmth and world-class hospitality.” Image Representation of Volta Wine + Market, 400 Central The announcement marks a major milestone for Red Apple Real Estate, the New York-based development firm led by John Catsimatidis Sr., which is bringing the 46-story mixed-use tower to life. “Volta is exactly the kind of elevated, local business we envisioned for 400 Central,” said Catsimatidis. “It’s a perfect fit for our residents, our neighborhood, and the future of downtown St. Petersburg.” Volta’s signing follows the recent lease of 45,000 square feet of Class A office space to Dynasty Financial Partners, one of the largest commercial lease deals in recent city history. Together, the two announcements signal growing momentum as 400 Central prepares to welcome its first residents later this year. Rendering of 400 Central Spanning an entire city block, 400 Central will deliver 301 luxury condominium residences, ground-floor retail and restaurants, and premier office space. The tower’s 46th-floor Sky Observatory will offer panoramic views from the highest vantage point in the city. As retail leasing continues, Volta Wine + Market sets the tone for what’s to come: refined, independent, and deeply connected to the local fabric of St. Pete.

Tucked into the lush, palm-lined boulevards of Coral Gables, The Biltmore is far more than a hotel—it’s a legend nearly 100 years in the making. Rising with unmistakable grandeur, this Mediterranean Revival masterpiece has stood as the city’s crown jewel since the Roaring Twenties, its iconic tower visible for miles. With Coral Gables now celebrating its 100th anniversary throughout 2025, and The Biltmore approaching its centennial in January 2026, there’s never been a more meaningful time to revisit this architectural treasure. Image at The Biltmore, Markets of Tomorrow Originally breaking ground in March 1925, The Biltmore opened its doors in 1926 as a glamorous destination for the Jazz Age elite. Designed by Schultze & Weaver—the minds behind New York’s Waldorf Astoria—the hotel channeled the spirit of European luxury, with grand colonnades, soaring arches, barrel-vaulted ceilings, and hand-painted frescos that still grace the interiors today. Over the decades, it evolved into a beacon of elegance and resilience, serving as a WWII hospital and later as part of the University of Miami’s medical school before being lovingly restored to its original grandeur. Today, it remains one of the most iconic properties in the Southeast, listed as a National Historic Landmark and a symbol of timeless luxury. Image of The Biltmore, Presidentials Room Step onto the property and you’ll quickly understand why this place still turns heads nearly a century later. Wild green parrots soar overhead while sunlight filters through banyan trees and palms. The hotel’s 271 guest rooms and suites are among the largest in Miami-Dade County, each radiating a sense of space, calm, and royalty. Some offer sweeping views of the golf course and city skyline; others look onto the lush grounds and legendary pool. The decor is understated yet refined, with Spanish tile floors, rich wood furnishings, and stately touches that nod to the hotel’s historic past. Image of The Biltmore Pool, Markets of Tomorrow At the heart of the resort is one of its most photographed—and jaw-dropping—features: a 23,000-square-foot swimming pool, still one of the largest in the continental U.S. Framed by towering palms and private cabanas, the pool is a destination in its own right. Lounging here on a breezy afternoon, cocktail in hand, feels like stepping into another era. Image of The Biltmore, Presidentials Room Wellness and leisure are deeply woven into The Biltmore experience. The resort’s state-of-the-art fitness center was recently upgraded with a sleek new design, featuring sauna and steam rooms, a sprawling workout floor, and private training studios. Weekly programming includes everything from sunrise yoga and pilates to water aerobics, Zumba, cycling classes, and golf-specific training sessions—making it easy to stay active while indulging in the pleasures of vacation. Image of The Biltmore Golf Club Golfers will find one of the most storied public-access courses in Florida right outside their door. Originally designed in 1925 by Donald Ross and recently restored, the Biltmore Golf Course is an 18-hole, par-71 championship course that winds through 6,800 yards of perfectly manicured fairways. Flanked by banyan trees, historic bridges, and glimpses of the hotel’s grand tower, it offers a playing experience that’s both technically rewarding, fun, and filled with exotic birds like peacocks and parrots. For moments of pure relaxation, the Biltmore Spa is another reason why the hotel has stood the test of time. Set on the 7th floor, the spa features a curated menu of facials, massages, body treatments, and rituals rooted in European wellness traditions. Spa guests enjoy access to the full fitness suite, steam and sauna rooms, and tranquil lounges with panoramic views. Image at The Biltmore, Markets of Tomorrow Dining at The Biltmore is just as memorable. At Fontana, the hotel’s iconic Italian courtyard restaurant, guests dine beside a central fountain surrounded by vine-draped columns—a picturesque setting for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, and Sunday brunch. Light bites and cocktails can also be enjoyed at the poolside Cascade, the elegant Biltmore Bar, or Brandi's, a dark, moody lounge. Recently, The Bitmore also debuted their newest dining concept, Fairways, located at the golf club – serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner, where you can enjoy drinks, sandwiches, seafood bites, and watch golfers tee off. Image of The Biltmore Lobby, Markets of Tomorrow Beyond the hotel, Coral Gables itself is a destination worth exploring. Known as “The City Beautiful,” it was one of America’s first planned communities—celebrated for its Mediterranean-style architecture, winding streets, and verdant canopy. The centennial celebration will highlight the area’s rich history and cultural legacy, from historic landmarks like the Venetian Pool and Merrick House to the refined shops and cafés lining Miracle Mile. And yet, despite its residential calm, Coral Gables offers proximity to the vibrant energy of Miami just minutes away. Image of The Biltmore Courtyard, Markets of Tomorrow As the city and its landmark hotel prepare to celebrate a century of beauty, innovation, and world-class hospitality, guests are invited to be part of the moment. Whether it’s your first time at The Biltmore or your fifth, this year offers a rare chance to experience the past and present coming together in a place that has always set the standard for luxury in Florida. The energy here isn’t manufactured—it’s storied, enduring, and alive. Book now to experience The Biltmore during this unforgettable centennial season.

Caribe Home , a thoughtful, design-forward approach to outdoor living, recently debuted its storefront in April 2025, in the heart of West Palm Beach’s antiques and art district: The South Dixie Corridor. Born from years of travel across the Bahamas and coastal Central America, the shop reflects an aesthetic that’s relaxed but intentional, layered with texture, and inspired by the rhythm of island life. Image of Caribe Home, West Palm Beach Caribe Home keeps its collections highly curated. The focus is on materials that hold up to South Florida’s climate—UV exposure, salt air, humidity—and on pieces that feel like a natural extension of the indoors. The result is a coastal sensibility that’s neither theme-driven nor overly polished, but grounded in experience and use. Image of Caribe Home, West Palm Beach Andrew and Fabiola Berman, the husband-and-wife team behind Caribe Home , bring a personal, travel-rooted perspective to everything they do. Their design philosophy was shaped by years of exploring the islands of the Atlantic—riding ATVs through backroads in the Bahamas, hopping between islands by panga, and sharing long, laughter-filled meals in laid-back island homes. Image of Caribe Home, West Palm Beach These experiences informed their belief that outdoor spaces should feel soulful, lived-in, and thoughtfully designed. With backgrounds that blend creative direction, interiors, and a shared appreciation for craftsmanship, Andrew and Fabiola bring a warm, collaborative energy to each project—always beginning with a conversation and a deep respect for how people truly live. Image of Caribe Home, West Palm Beach Outdoor spaces deserve the same design intention as interiors,” the founders explain. “We’re recreating a resort feel for the outdoors—and building spaces people want to live in every day.” The team’s design perspective has been shaped by real-world encounters: island lunches in friends’ homes, long days spent exploring markets, and the spontaneous texture of life off the beaten path. That sensibility now informs how they work with clients—starting each project with a conversation, not a catalog. Image of Caribe Home, West Palm Beach One client, after installing a pendant light from the shop, proudly showed it off to friends at a community event. When she introduced the team, her friends had already seen photos. “That kind of moment sticks with you,” they say. Image of Caribe Home, West Palm Beach As more Floridians lean into year-round outdoor living, Caribe Home is helping shape the shift. Their role is less about decorating and more about guiding—helping people rethink the potential of their outdoor spaces with the same care and attention given to a living room or kitchen. Image of Caribe Home, West Palm Beach From bold colors to organic textures, everything at Caribe Home reflects a point of view grounded in personal connection, real use, and a love for the outdoors—not just as a backdrop, but as a space to live.
