Boulder just welcomed its most anticipated arrival: the debut of Limelight Boulder , a first-of-its-kind partnership between Aspen One’s Limelight Hotels and CU Boulder. Opening its doors in the heart of campus, the new property connects students, locals, and travelers with a vibrant hub of design, dining, and discovery. Rendering of Limelight Boulder, Aspen One At 252 rooms, Limelight Boulder makes history as the nation’s largest all-electric hotel, combining sustainability with style. Designed by Meyer Davis and HBA San Francisco, the interiors reflect Boulder’s bold energy with rich blues, pops of yellow, and expansive mountain views. Curated art by Eaton Fine Art and sweeping event space by Bentel & Bentel—including a 15,000-square-foot ballroom—anchor the property as both a cultural and social destination. Guests will find a mix of lively amenities and thoughtful touches: a rooftop pool overlooking the Flatirons, outdoor firepits, a game room, coworking space, and wellness-driven accommodations. Ajax Tavern brings its iconic Aspen après spirit to Boulder with signature classics like Wagyu cheeseburgers and truffle fries alongside new, locally inspired dishes.

Limelight Live brings weekly performances and seasonal concerts, while Adventure Architects design custom itineraries for guests, from trail hikes to kayaking Boulder Creek—complete with luxury Audi transport. The location places visitors steps from Pearl Street Mall, Folsom Field, and more than 300 miles of surrounding trails, making it the ultimate launchpad for both football weekends and outdoor escapes. "The opening of Limelight Boulder represents an exciting and meaningful milestone in the continued expansion and evolution of the Limelight brand, joining our growing portfolio of premium destinations," said Jeff Toscano, Aspen Hospitality CEO.

Palm Beach continues to draw attention as New York faces growing political and economic uncertainty. In a recent Bloomberg interview, Premier Estate Properties’ Margit Brandt , a leading voice in luxury real estate, described what she calls the “Fourth Migration” of New Yorkers heading to Palm Beach Island. “I’m a New Yorker. I grew up here, and I think what’s happening now feels very different,” Brandt explained. The momentum, she noted, is being driven by more than just taxes. The potential election of Mayoral candidate Mamdani has created a new wave of buyers for South Florida, according to Brandt. From Wall Street executives to families seeking stability, the migration has become a defining trend. Image of Margit Brandt, Premier Estate Properties Prices on Palm Beach Island have not only remained strong, but continued appreciating, with decades of historical progression showing a steady incline. For those considering a move, Brandt emphasized, “Now is the time.” She pointed to billions of dollars being invested locally by Stephen Ross, the Related Ross founder whom she dubbed the previous “King of New York.” His vision for West Palm Beach includes schools, offices, condominiums, entertainment, and cultural infrastructure—laying the foundation for a city that Brandt says is transforming into “what Tribeca felt like ten years ago.” For those worried about leaving behind the comforts of Manhattan, Brandt was quick to add reassurance: “All of your favorite New York staples have already opened shop in the Palm Beach area.” From restaurants like Milos, Le Bilbloquet, La Goulou, to venues like Eataly, boutiques and exercise brands like Equinox, the connections between the two markets grow stronger by the year. Looking ahead, Brandt forecasted that up to 30% of Wall Street is at least open-minded to moving to South Florida—particularly if political shifts in New York accelerate under leadership such as that of Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani. “Palm Beach is no longer just a second home escape,” she noted. “It’s becoming a permanent base for some of the most influential players in finance and culture.” Rendering of 10 & 15 CityPlace, West Palm Beach As the Fourth Migration potentially gains momentum, Brandt’s message is clear: Palm Beach is not just keeping pace with New York—it’s rising as its counterpart in the South, offering stability, opportunity, and an unmatched lifestyle. And whether you are viewing South Florida as just a hedge against New York so that you have both options or a life boat if you may fully relocate, she tells Bloomberg that many buyers are getting ahead of the NYC Mayoral Election and putting the wheels in motion for their South Florida moves as early as this past Summer and into this Fall.

PopUp Bagels , the award-winning “Not Famous But Known®” brand, has officially opened its first Florida location at 4528 W. Kennedy Blvd. in Tampa’s Westshore neighborhood. Known for bagels with crispy crusts, chewy centers, and its signature “Grip, Rip and Dip®” approach, the new shop brings the brand’s cult-favorite style south for the first time. Image of PopUp Bagels Tampa Open daily from 6:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., the Tampa store serves hot, whole, unsliced bagels straight from the oven, accompanied by rotating schmears ranging from bold flavors like pesto butter to inventive twists on classics such as scallion cream cheese. The Tampa debut marks a milestone moment for PopUp Bagels as it begins its Florida expansion, with roughly 30 additional locations planned across the state over the next year in cities like Orlando, West Palm Beach's CityPlace, Delray Beach, and Miami. The shop joins a national network that started as a backyard pickup in Connecticut in 2020, quickly earning attention through two Brooklyn BagelFest wins and growing into permanent stores across New York, Connecticut, and Massachusetts. Franchise partner Kal Gullapalli, who is leading Florida’s rollout, emphasized that the Sunshine State deserves great bagels, noting Tampa as just the beginning of a statewide wave. This local launch comes on the heels of a much larger national strategy: PopUp Bagels recently announced agreements for 300 new franchise locations across 10 states, aiming to reach 100 open shops by the end of 2027. With regional production hubs and a pre-order model designed to guarantee peak freshness, the company is scaling fast while keeping its focus on quality. For Florida residents, it means a new bagel ritual has arrived—hot, unsliced, and ready to grip, rip, and dip—cementing Tampa as the first of many hubs for PopUp’s growing fan base.

Sarasota is quickly becoming one of Florida’s most desirable destinations. Known for its cultural depth, award-winning beaches like Siesta Key, and a culinary-focused downtown, the city offers an elevated quality of life without the congestion of Miami or Tampa. With unmatched value, walkable neighborhoods, and a growing list of lifestyle amenities, Sarasota is firmly on the rise—and at the center of its momentum stands Bath & Racquet Residences & Club , a development that is redefining resort-style living on the Gulf Coast. Rendering of Bath & Racquet Club, Sarasota Rising on the storied site of the original 1969 Bath & Racquet Club , this ambitious new community honors its legacy as a historic tennis destination while embracing modern resilience and design. The project broke ground in April 2025 after securing a $79 million construction loan, and will transform the 13-acre property into a lifestyle hub. Plans call for 256 luxury condominiums across four buildings—The Courtyard, The Courtside, The Parkside, and The Poolside—with more than 20 distinct floor plans, including seven three-story penthouses. Rendering of Bath & Racquet Club, Sarasota Prices start at $499,000 , and sales momentum has been strong, with all one-bedroom units already pre-sold. Residences feature concrete construction, hurricane-rated laminated-glass windows, and a site elevated 25 feet above sea level, offering peace of mind in a storm-prone state. The vision extends beyond the residences themselves. Bath & Racquet is designed as a self-contained lifestyle community anchored by a private, members-only club with world-class amenities. Rendering of Bath & Racquet Club, Sarasota Residents and members will enjoy a multitude of outdoor tennis and pickleball courts—including indoor, air-conditioned courts as well—plus a resort-style pool, spa, gym, and private residential pool. A full-service restaurant and bar reserved exclusively for residents and members will add to the resort atmosphere, while family-friendly amenities like a playground, dog park, and walking trails make it a community that caters to all ages. Convenience has also been built into the master plan, with secure parking, bike storage, and dedicated unit storage across the property. Rendering of Bath & Racquet Club, Sarasota Adding credibility and energy to the project is tennis legend and former world No. 2 Tommy Haas , who serves as Global Ambassador and Club Curator. Having moved to Sarasota at the age of 11 to pursue his career, Haas now returns to shape the future of the community that shares so much of his own history. His role extends beyond a ceremonial title—he is directly curating the coaching experience, overseeing day-to-day tennis operations, and inviting elite trainers and players to elevate the club into a world-class destination for sport and wellness. Rendering of Bath & Racquet Club, Sarasota The project’s location is another strength. Just minutes from downtown Sarasota and a short drive to Siesta Key, residents will have effortless access to cultural venues, shops, restaurants, and some of the best beaches in the country. The site itself is tucked away enough to feel private yet strategically positioned near daily conveniences like Trader Joe’s. This combination of access, privacy, and thoughtful community design sets Bath & Racquet apart in Florida’s Gulf Coast market. Rendering of Bath & Racquet Club, Sarasota With move-ins anticipated in December 2026, Bath & Racquet Residences & Club is poised to become a defining landmark for Sarasota’s next era of growth. Local officials have already called the groundbreaking “a monumental, historic day,” underscoring its impact on the city’s future. Rendering of Bath & Racquet Club, Sarasota By blending a storied legacy with contemporary design, resilience, and a holistic lifestyle experience, Bath & Racquet is leading the charge on the Gulf Coast—setting a new benchmark for what residential living can be in one of Florida’s most exciting cities.

Rendering of Wingrove Academy, Elkus Manfredi Architects The name “Wingrove” captures the school’s guiding philosophy—“Wing” representing ambition, resilience, and critical exploration, while “Grove” reflects community, sustainability, and rooted values. Together, these principles define a vision of purposeful learning that prepares students to become leaders and changemakers. Rendering of Wingrove Academy, Elkus Manfredi Architects Wingrove Academy will open with grades PreK–8 in 2028, followed by its first high school class in 2029. ElevateED founder Karen Yung and President Marianne Rehn are leading the school’s development, bringing global expertise in innovative academics, arts, and athletics. “Wingrove Academy is designed to nurture not only academic excellence but also resilience, adaptability, and global perspective,” Yung said. “Wellington is the perfect setting for this vision.” Supporting the effort is Related Ross, led by Stephen Ross, whose developments have redefined Palm Beach County’s economic and cultural landscape. “World-class education is essential to sustaining the region’s growth,” Ross noted. “Wingrove Academy will ensure Palm Beach County continues to attract talent, businesses, and culture at the highest level.” Rendering of Wingrove Academy, Elkus Manfredi Architects The 45-acre campus, designed by David Manfredi of Elkus Manfredi Architects , will integrate cutting-edge facilities with open green spaces to support a dynamic indoor–outdoor learning experience. Programs will emphasize STEAM, athletics, and the arts while ensuring individualized support for every student. A search led by executive firm RG175 is now underway to identify the school’s founding Head of School. Wingrove Academy represents more than a school—it’s a statement of Palm Beach County’s future, uniting education, community, and innovation in one of Florida’s fastest-growing regions.

One of Palm Beach’s most storied landmarks is set for a grand revival. In partnership with the Reuben Brothers, Oetker Hotels—formerly known as Oetker Collection—will debut its first U.S. property when The Vineta Hotel opens in Fall 2025, restoring a nearly century-old icon to its original name and stature. Rendering of The Vineta Pool, Oetker Hotels The rebrand to Oetker Hotels, announced in July 2025, underscores the group’s strategy to strengthen global recognition as it expands beyond its European and Caribbean strongholds. “As our portfolio steadily expands, we are committed to strengthening our brand awareness and recognition,” said CEO Timo Gruenert. Rendering of The Vineta Social Space, Oetker Hotels “This move signifies our ambition to be known globally for doing just one thing and one thing exceptionally well—and that is creating masterpiece hotels.” The group will retain its “Masterpiece Collection” signature in branding while sharpening awareness of Oetker Hotels as a premier name in luxury hospitality. Rendering of The Vineta Suite, Oetker Hotels Originally opened in 1926 as the Lido-Venice and rebranded The Vineta two years later, the hotel spent five decades under that name before a series of transformations—including a brief stint as condos in the 1980s and its most recent life as The Chesterfield. Now, after a meticulous restoration, the property is returning to its roots. Rendering of The Vineta, Oetker Hotels Just two blocks from Worth Avenue and steps from the beach, The Vineta will feature 41 guestrooms and suites—down from the previous 53 to create more generous layouts—crafted by Paris-based designer Tino Zervudachi. The building’s pale-pink Mediterranean Revival façade, a Palm Beach classic, remains intact while interiors embrace a modern, relaxed elegance. Rendering of The Vineta Social Space, Oetker Hotels The hotel will center around four signature social spaces: Coco’s restaurant, led by Executive Chef Sébastian Broda and Pastry Chef Tarek of Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc; a lively statement bar; a reimagined lounge; and a lush courtyard designed for alfresco gatherings. A poolside restaurant with indoor-outdoor Mediterranean flair further positions The Vineta as a destination in itself. Rendering of The Vineta, Oetker Hotels For Palm Beach, the revival is more than nostalgia. The arrival of Oetker Hotels—known for Le Bristol Paris, The Lanesborough London, Eden Rock St Barths, and Hotel La Palma in Capri—introduces a new standard of international luxury to the market. Alongside nearby icons like The Colony and The Breakers, The Vineta signals Palm Beach’s next era of hospitality at the highest level. Rendering of The Vineta Social Space, Oetker Hotels With its storied past, prime location, and infusion of modern design and culinary talent, The Vineta Hotel is poised to reestablish itself as one of Palm Beach’s most prestigious addresses and the crown jewel of Oetker Hotels’ North American debut.

Inspired by the warm glow of traditional Thai lanterns, Hatai will house both the Narai Hotel and Six Senses Bangkok, alongside 56,000 square feet of public space including a green canopied plaza, restored canal, elevated walkways, and gathering spaces such as a shrine, open-air market, and event venues. Designed to achieve LEED and WELL Gold certification, the project blends heritage and contemporary design with a strong sustainability focus. “This marks an exciting chapter in our brand growth in the country and the Asia Pacific region. It underscores our commitment to delivering unique luxury experiences that today's travelers increasingly seek.” - said David Udell, group president, Asia Pacific, Hyatt. Image of Hatai, Heatherwick Studio The 250-room Narai Hotel will offer an all-day dining restaurant, rooftop dining, a lounge, pool, fitness center, and versatile event spaces. Located near Chong Nonsi BTS station and the Chao Phraya River, it will provide seamless access to Bangkok’s business, diplomatic, and cultural districts—anchoring a design-forward hospitality destination in the heart of Silom.

Nashville International Airport (BNA) has officially entered a bold new chapter in its 12-year overhaul, launching the New Horizon program following the completion of the Concourse D extension—marking a watershed moment in the airport’s ongoing evolution. BNA’s growth has been remarkable, with passenger volumes setting records for four consecutive years and reaching 24.8 million travelers in the 2024–25 fiscal year—far surpassing pre-pandemic levels. Rendering of Concourse A, Hensel Phelps Building on the success of BNA Vision, which wrapped in February 2024, New Horizon represents the airport’s ambitious next phase, with an estimated $3 billion price tag and a projected full completion by 2029. Combined, BNA Vision and New Horizon bring the total investment in the airport’s transformation to an extraordinary $4.5 billion since 2017. Rendering of Concourse A, Hensel Phelps The first major milestone under New Horizon came on July 8, 2025, when BNA unveiled its newly expanded Concourse D. This project added five gates, increasing the concourse total from six to eleven, and introduced more than 161,000 square feet of new space. Passengers are now welcomed by a moving walkway—the first in the airport’s history—a vibrant “record node” rotunda with panoramic windows, and an outdoor terrace with sweeping views of the ramp and downtown Nashville. The expansion also includes eight new shops, restaurants, and cafés, as well as three original art installations. Rendering of Concourse A, Hensel Phelps The most significant project now underway is the complete reconstruction of Concourse A, scheduled to open on July 11, 2028. The $855 million effort will demolish the existing concourse and replace it with a facility nearly three times its current size, featuring 16 gates and adding 374,000 square feet of terminal space. Rendering of Concourse A, Hensel Phelps Plans call for two baggage claim devices, two 120-foot moving walkways, 24 ticket counters, 28,000 square feet of concessions, expanded restrooms, a mother’s room, a service animal relief area, a departures-level terrace, and 20,000 square feet of mezzanine airline lounges with both indoor balcony and outdoor terrace seating. The project also includes expanded ticketing and baggage claim areas on the north side of the terminal, ultimately increasing BNA’s gate total from 54 to 70, and enabling the airport to accommodate up to 40 million passengers per year. Rendering of Concourse A, Hensel Phelps Other New Horizon projects already in progress include the Central Ramp Expansion, slated for completion by September 30, 2027. The airport is also upgrading its baggage handling system, with completion planned for 2028, introducing automated flight-level sorting, faster security checks, and enhanced luggage handling designed to meet the demands of BNA’s projected growth. Terminal Access Roadway Improvements (TARI) are scheduled through 2029, expanding roadway lanes to two for arrivals and two for departures, improving parking and rental car facilities, and creating a consolidated employee and valet staging lot. Rendering of Concourse A, Hensel Phelps BNA is also installing electrochromic glass that automatically adjusts its tint to reduce heat gain in summer and maximize sunlight in winter, reusing rock excavated from roadway construction to minimize transportation emissions, and implementing a geothermal lake plate cooling system in a converted quarry that cuts energy usage by 50% while providing irrigation water. The Parking & Transportation Center features a Park Assist® guidance system, electric vehicle charging stations, and LED lighting to further improve efficiency. The New Horizon program is designed to keep pace with this momentum, future-proofing the airport for decades to come.

Orient Express is set to expand its hospitality portfolio in Italy with the upcoming opening of Palazzo Donà Giovannelli , a landmark property originally constructed in 1436 and attributed to master architect Filippo Calendario, the visionary behind the Doge’s Palace . Situated where two canals meet in the Cannaregio district, the 15th-century palace is scheduled to welcome guests in April 2026 and is now accepting reservations. Once the private residence of the Donà and Giovannelli families, it was later gifted to the Duke of Urbino. Orient Express Palazzo Donà Giovannelli, Aline Asmar d’Amman The restoration has been led by architect and interior designer Aline Asmar d’Amman and her studio, Culture in Architecture , who have approached the project as both a preservation of heritage and a reimagining for contemporary hospitality. Original frescoes, mosaic floors, and carved stone details have been carefully revived, while new interventions bring light and spatial clarity to the interiors. The property’s octagonal staircase, designed in the 19th century by Giovanni Battista Meduna, remains a focal point, crowned by a vaulted ceiling of stone and glass. Library of Cultures, Orient Express Palazzo Donà Giovannelli The Piano Nobile, or main floor, will host the Vittoria Ballroom, first created for the 1548 wedding of Princess Vittoria Farnese; the Library of Cultures, decorated with lapis lazuli pigments and gilded woodwork; and the Music Room, recalling the gatherings of Venice’s golden age. Palazzo Donà Giovannelli will offer 47 accommodations, including 29 rooms, 16 suites, and two of the first-ever Orient Express Apartments situated in an adjacent building — all positioned to overlook either the Rio di Noale canal or the property’s private gardens.  Orient Express Palazzo Donà Giovannelli Lobby Culinary offerings will include an intimate fine‑dining restaurant with private boat access, an all‑day dining space overlooking the internal courtyard and gardens, and the Wagon Bar— a venue inspired by the brand’s rail legacy. If it follows tradition, it will echo the sociable spirit of the Venice Simplon‑Orient‑Express bar car: a place to meet fellow travelers over expertly crafted cocktails and live piano music. Guests arriving on the La Dolce Vita Orient Express train can arrive at Santa Lucia Station and reach the hotel on foot or by boat. Palazzo Donà Giovannelli’s arrival in Venice follows the recent opening of Orient Express La Minerva in Rome and forms part of the brand’s broader development strategy under the Accor Group in partnership with LVMH . Together with its luxury train experiences and future ventures, including the sailing yacht Orient Express Corinthian , the property represents a continuation of the brand’s heritage as an artisan of travel — combining architectural preservation, cultural narrative, and distinctive hospitality in one of the city’s most storied locations.

Playboy has just announced that it will be moving their global headquarters to the penthouse at Rivani Miami Beach , where a $100 million transformation has birthed South Beach's first "Class X" office. Rendering of Rivani Miami Beach, Speakeasy The lifestyle brand has signed a penthouse lease at 1691 Michigan Avenue, where developer Robert Rivani has transformed a traditional office building into what he calls a "Class X" asset—complete with Omakase restaurant, speakeasy, world-class spa, and full-service concierge. Rendering of Rivani, Entrance The project sits adjacent to Lincoln Road and represents Rivani's latest disruption of conventional real estate categories. Rockwell Group designed the interiors to blur hospitality and office space, incorporating meditation rooms, living room-style meeting areas, and private event venues alongside a comprehensive wellness center. The building's amenities mirror those of a luxury hotel, from valet service to curated wellness programming. Rendering of Rivani, Lobby This headquarters relocation coincides with Rivani's corporate rebrand from Black Lion to RIVANI, a shift that reflects his expanding portfolio across South Florida. The developer controls nearly $200 million in prime assets, including Amara at Paraiso, the forthcoming GAIA, and Wynwood Jungle. Rendering of Rivani, Speakeasy Corridor His recent transactions have reset market benchmarks—the $28.2 million sale of Catch Miami Beach established a Florida record for a freestanding restaurant, while his $38.25 million all-cash deal for restaurant spaces at SLS Lux Brickell and Dua Miami Hotel ranks among 2025's largest hospitality transactions. Rendering of Rivani, Cafe Rivani Miami Beach positions itself as a new paradigm for commercial office buildings, blending five-star hospitality services and elevated design. Playboy's new lease signals strong market confidence in this hybrid model, with additional high-profile tenants expected to follow.
