Ritz-Carlton Is Out to Make Art Studios the Latest Must-Have Amenity in Luxury Living
Walk into one of Tatiana Blanco’s parties and you’ll find guests gathered around a blank canvas, not a TV or the kitchen table. “I needed an outlet—a place where I could release my emotions more spontaneously. And I saw that my friends did, too,” says the sculptor from her home and studio in Key Biscayne, a small island town across the bridge from Miami. “That’s when we started making group paintings.” For the past two years, Blanco has provided a communal canvas for friends and visitors to her home, where the tabula rasa has doubled as...

Philippe Houdard could be Brickell’s future: He has gone car-less. Houdard, the co-founder of office-space sharing firm Pipeline, sold his Honda Accord when he moved to Brickell from South Beach last year. He walks when he goes to dinner. He takes Uber to meetings. “Brickell has the density to do everything I need within several blocks,” Houdard said. “It’s completely changed.” Just a few years ago, Miami’s financial district emptied into a ghost town when law firms and banks shut their doors at night. You could roll a bowling ball down...

Buying a whole block on Miami Beach’s Lincoln Road simply wasn’t enough for Spanish billionaire Amancio Ortega. The Zara owner has yet again smashed a Miami record with the $500 million purchase of downtown’s Southeast Financial Center, an iconic office building that seller JPMorgan Asset Management began shopping around earlier this year. In a single deal, Ortega has closed on the largest commercial purchase in Miami this year, blowing past the previous high set by Sumitomo Corp. in May when the Japanese conglomerate burst back onto the...

read moreFreddie Mac planning appraisal free mortgages
Giant mortgage investor Freddie Mac plans to dispense with traditional appraisals on some loan applications for home purchases, replacing them with an alternative valuation system that would be free of charge to both lenders and borrowers. Can computers, big data and advanced analytics replace real live humans when it comes to accurately valuing the home you want to buy? One of the two largest financial players in U.S. real estate thinks so and is preparing to introduce changes that could prove momentous — and highly controversial. Click...
read moreMiami a top homebuilding market to watch in 2017
When it comes to homebuilding, Miami is a top 75 market to watch in 2017, according to a joint report from PwC and the Urban Land Institute. The city’s No. 62 ranking comes as little surprise, as Miami, while continuing to see strong residential construction spending, has been losing some of its heat. During the month of September, builders spent more than $267 million on new projects, down 14 percent from the same time last year, while year to date, spending was down 4 percent to $4.9 billion. Those numbers are still higher than several...

We’re 91 percent leased and have active negotiations on what little space we have left so its very exciting,” said said Steve Owens, President of Swire Properties. At Tuesday’s media first look press tour, it was plain to see the center is still very much under...

Last year billionaire hedge fund manager David Tepper held the title of New Jersey’s richest. But he has since moved (along with his $19 billion firm) to Florida, a state with no estate or personal income tax. Advantageous for him, perhaps: he logged about $1.2 billion in earnings in 2015. Not so much for the Garden State, as it might suffer a budget shortfall once Tepper stops contributing to its tax roll. Last year billionaire hedge fund manager David Tepper held the title of New Jersey’s richest. But he has since moved (along with his $19...

Most of the stores in Brickell City Centre’s 500,000-square-foot mall weren’t quite ready to ring up sales when the project opened its doors on Thursday, but anchor Saks Fifth Avenue had its 140 employees prepared to greet customers on day one. Saks Fifth Avenue President Marc Metrick flew down from New York to witness the seventh store opening by his company this year. The luxury retailer, a subsidiary of Hudson’s Bay Co. (Toronto Stock Exchange: HBC), has completed most of the interior buildout of the three-story, 107,500-square-foot store...

WINTER HAVEN — Florida’s unemployment rate and job growth are outpacing their national counterparts, while the U.S. economy continues to recover at a faster clip than the rest of the world.
