Showcasing the awe-inspiring lobby entrance, reception area, and lobby bar, the sophisticated design created by interior designer Adil Tunca, is highlighted with sweeping, breathtaking views of vibrant Downtown Miami and Biscayne Bay.

Situated on the 13th – 30th floors of the soaring 70-story tower, the 316-key Hilton Miami Bayfront Hotel will offer endless amenity and entertainment areas exclusive to hotel guests spread across three dedicated amenity levels including a pool, fitness center, spa, and versatile meeting rooms with spacious ballroom space.

Gucci Opens Newly Expanded Two-Story Lavish Boutique At Bal Harbour Shops

Gucci has officially opened its newly expanded Bal Harbour Shops boutique, now situated across two sprawling floors and featuring a custom staircase connecting the levels. With the expansion the boutique has doubled in size and includes a dedicated menswear second floor takeover highlighting the men’s offering including ready-to-wear, shoes, and luggage. The updated first floor now features an expanded offering across women’s ready-to-wear, accessories, jewelry & watches, eyewear, décor and Gucci Beauty, as well as an inviting private VIP shopping area.

With the expanded space in the boutique, customers can explore a range of categories and products, including the new Cosmogonie collection with a focus on men’s tailoring and iconic handbags, such as the Dionysus. The store will also offer a selection of precious leather handbags and shoes for both men and women.

With a look that invites customers to feel welcome and relaxed, the interior design is discreet. Contemporary luxury is suggested not only by the employment of beautiful and idiosyncratic materials, but also through a determinedly spare use of space. Custom geometric painted wood floors and marble polychrome inlays produce decorative three- dimensional effects on the floors, while being harmoniously integrated with the herringbone wood flooring. Juxtaposition of this sort, where opposites forge a new connection, is repeated throughout: display units inspired by vintage brass racks contrast with the softness of the rich fabrics that adorn the rooms; round tables offset rectangular ones; varnished, silver, gold and black iron finishes complement the pink velvets, used for upholstery. Throughout the store one finds sumptuous chairs, while vintage oriental rugs are layered over the floors for a textured effect. The result is a space that entices, surprises and feels personal to Gucci.

As part of Gucci’s commitment to implement and enhance eco-friendly initiatives and energy-efficient technologies in the House’s stores worldwide, the new store has LED lighting; and a Building Management System (BMS) to monitor and promote energy efficiency.

Founded in Florence, Italy, in 1921, Gucci is one of the world’s leading luxury brands. Following the House’s centenary, Gucci forges ahead continuing to redefine luxury while celebrating creativity, Italian craftsmanship, and innovation.

Situated at 9700 Collins Avenue on 17.42 acres in an exclusive oceanfront community located between the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway, Bal Harbour Shops was completed in 1965 as the first all-luxury fashion shopping center and has been meticulously maintained throughout the years. Bal Harbour Shops has operated at 100% occupancy for several decades with a waiting list. In addition to the anchor tenants, the Shops is home to more than 100 of the most sought-after global, high-fashion boutiques and brands, including Chanel, Gucci, Richard Mille, Van Cleef & Arpels, Tiffany & Co., Salvatore Ferragamo and Valentino. The destination also boasts the highest concentration of restaurants in Bal Harbour including Makoto, Le Zoo and Hillstone at Bal Harbour.

CYMBAL DLT Companies Locks Down $95 Million Loan For Newly Built Oasis Pointe Residences In Dania Beach

Miami-based real estate development and construction firm Cymbal DLT Companies has secured a $95 million loan from Kookmin Bank and Related Fund Management for Oasis Pointe Residences, a multifamily complex in Dania Beach that they recently developed and will now continue to be part of the Cymbal DLT Collection of communities in South Florida.

Within 29 months of groundbreaking, Cymbal DLT paid off its $60.3 million construction loan to 3650 REIT and distributed to their equity investors over a 130% return, a return that will continue to grow with ongoing cash flow. The loan will allow Cymbal DLT and their investors to keep the newly built 301-unit community as part of their growing multifamily portfolio. Cymbal DLT has a development and construction pipeline of over $2 billion in South Florida.

“We are grateful to our investors and lenders for the confidence that they have placed in us,” said Asi Cymbal, Chairman of Cymbal DLT. “We are proud of the fact that we have rewarded our investors with unmatched returns and have always paid our lenders in full.”

“Cymbal DLT’s focus on best in class has allowed us to mitigate risk and thrive during these turbulent times,” added Hector Torres, CEO of Cymbal DLT.

Patrick Martin from Related, Will (Woosuk) Cha from Kookmin Bank, and Asi Cymbal, Hector Torres, Jacob Nunez, and Jake Fleischer from Cymbal DLT worked to close this deal. Cymbal DLT’s private financier Christian Uriarte and Gautham Atreya of Cymbal DLT brokered the loan. John Hotte of Krinzman Huss Lubetsky Feldman & Hotte was legal counsel for Cymbal DLT.

The 2.4-acre waterfront complex opened 8 months ago and is 97% leased. It serves as the area’s first waterfront apartment building with 301 units, thoughtfully designed details, and exceptional indoor and outdoor amenities to create fresh-air havens of relaxation and retreat. The living spaces of the building feature a mix of studios, one, two, and three-bedroom luxury apartments with open floor plans and modern features.

The residential design of the luxury indoor and outdoor living spaces respond to the timely demands for better natural ventilation, lighting, and fresh air quality while the amenities seek to enhance the mental and physical well-being of residents.

Inspired by the surrounding water and nature, key amenities and features of the eight-story building include: a meditation garden; a waterfront boardwalk with a 19-slip marina; a Zoom lounge with private office suites and workstations; an outdoor lap pool; a fire pit with outdoor BBQ and picnic areas; state-of-the-art, open-air fitness facility and yoga studio; an indoor lounge and game room; and a dog park.

Swire Properties and Related Companies Commence Demolition On Future Site of One Brickell City Centre Supertall Office Tower

Swire Properties Inc., the U.S. subsidiary of global developer Swire Properties Limited, and Related Companies, one of the most prominent privately-owned real estate firm in the United States, have officially commenced demolition on the site of the future One Brickell City Centre, an approximately 1,000-foot supertall tower that will be the tallest commercial building in Florida. Miami Mayor Francis X. Suarez, Henry Bott, the President of Swire Properties and Stephen M. Ross, the Chairman and Founder of Related Companies, were in attendance at the event today to celebrate moving forward with this premier office development that validates the tremendous strength of the Miami office market. As part of the program, one of the buildings currently on the site was partially demolished through a stunning display where multiple floors of glass and concrete were carved out of the structure.

One Brickell City Centre will feature 1.4 million total square feet of office space and the largest floorplates ever approved for a commercial office building by the City of Miami. Located in the heart of Miami’s financial district, at the corner of Brickell Avenue and SE 8th Street, it will overlook the Miami skyline offering 360-degree views of Biscayne Bay, Miami River, and Downtown Miami. One Brickell City Centre is the second phase of Brickell City Centre, a $1.05-billion, 4.9-million-square-foot, mixed‐use development that opened in 2016 and was developed by Swire Properties.

“This will be an iconic building that will reshape the Miami skyline, the third-largest skyline in America. It will attract the world’s best talent to Miami. Thank you to Related and Swire, who have doubled down with confidence in the future of our city,” said Miami Mayor Francis X. Suarez.

“One Brickell City Centre is a transformative development that sets the standard for the future of office buildings and showcases to the world’s leading companies that Miami is the new destination to call home. Swire Properties and Related Companies take great pride in collaborating on a truly innovative office development that features thoughtful design, cutting-edge technology and amenities and features that aren't available elsewhere in Miami’s office market,” said Henry Bott, President of Swire Properties Inc.

“Today marks an inflection point in the Miami office market as the workplace of yesterday is torn down to make way for future,” said Stephen M. Ross, Chairman and Founder of Related Companies. “One Brickell City Center combines the best-practices of luxury hospitality and wellness projects with the latest workplace insights to create the flexible, amenity-driven, lifestyle workspace that leading companies, many of them already Related tenants in other markets, are increasingly looking for to fuel collaboration, engagement and retention of top talent.”

Internationally renowned architecture firm Arquitectonica designed the building with the office of the future in mind, with features and amenities ideal for tenants in Miami’s fastest growing sectors including financial services and technology. One Brickell City Centre features thoughtfully envisioned and spacious floor plans, outdoor terraces on nearly every floor, column free interiors, numerous indoor/outdoor spaces for meetings and gatherings, and state-of-the-art technology features to meet the needs of the most discerning office tenants.

One Brickell City Centre marks the first time Swire Properties has collaborated with Related Companies. Both companies share a vision for creating vibrant neighborhoods that change the urban landscape with innovative developments that positively impact communities for generations to come.

Related Companies has extensive experience in Florida and has redeveloped Downtown West Palm into one of the nation’s fastest growing commercial, retail, culinary, art and tourism destinations. Related Southeast leads the market in Class AA office with 360 Rosemary, CityPlace Tower, Esperanté, Phillips Point and the forthcoming 1 Flagler, as well as the celebrated destinations of Rosemary Square, Hilton West Palm Beach, and RH West Palm. Swire Properties has spearheaded the transformation of Miami as well as Brickell’s history and skyline by instilling its core values of quality, integrity, originality and long-term focus to each of its developments, which include Brickell City Centre, the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, EAST Miami hotel and restaurants, as well as the entire island community of Brickell Key.

One Brickell City Centre is situated at the entrance to Brickell City Centre, which is LEED Gold Certified and includes: 500,000 square feet of shopping, culinary and entertainment offerings; the 352 key EAST Miami hotel; the condominium towers Reach & Rise; two additional office towers providing 260,000 square feet of space; the $30 million Climate Ribbon, which promotes sustainability through water conservation and energy efficiency; and a 2,600-space underground parking garage. It can be accessed directly from the I-95 at SW 8th and is in close proximity to many city transit options.

Other supertalls coming to Miami include Waldorf Astoria Hotel & Residences Miami which was recently issued the first vertical construction permit for a supertall in Florida. The tower is nearly sold-out and is being developed by PMG and Grey brook Realty Partners, Mohari Hospitality, S2 Development and global hospitality company Hilton (NYSE: HLT). Another is 888 Brickell, a luxury condo tower at 888 Brickell Avenue being developed by JDS Development which was previously branded as MAJOR in partnership with Major Food Group. Most recently billionaire hedge fund magnate Ken Griffin and his firm Citadel are planning a supertall bayfront mixed use office tower at 1201 Brickell Bay.

Michelin Starred Chef Shingo Akikuni to Open His First Restaurant, Shingo

Critically-acclaimed Chef Shingo Akikuni will open his very first restaurant, SHINGO, on Thursday, May 11, 2023 inside the historic La Palma building in Coral Gables. SHINGO is an intimate, 14-seat, omakase restaurant that will offer an 18-course dining experience featuring traditional Japanese nigiri, seasonal sashimi and Yakimono dishes with premium sake pairings. Chef Akikuni brings his years of experience and accolades to SHINGO. Most recently, he served as executive chef at Miami’s Japanese fine-dining restaurant Hiden. Under his helm as executive chef, Hiden was one of the first restaurants in Miami to be awarded one star from the MICHELIN Guide in 2022.

The 850-square-foot space has been entirely designed and constructed by expert woodworkers in Kyoto, Japan before being de-constructed, transported and reassembled in Miami. Upon entering SHINGO, guests will feel as though they have been transported to Japan’s classic omakase dens. The restaurant features traditional Japanese design elements and vintage materials, including the use of Hinoki and Sugi woods on the counter, ceiling and grand entrance, which doubles as an art gallery. The dining room features an intimate “L-shaped” 14-seat counter made of a rare 10 meter slab of Hinoki wood. Special touches and details are found in every moment at SHINGO, from the unique silver chopstick holders, crafted to resemble food shapes, to an array of custom-made ceramic plateware created by Kyoto-based ceramics maker Shin Murata.

Passionate about sharing Japanese culture through food in America, Chef/Owner Akikuni is excited to add to the thriving dining scene in Miami and seeks to provide diners with an individualized experience based on their personalities and preferences.

“I first moved to Miami five years ago, and I feel that the restaurant scene has been booming year by year, featuring so many passionate and talented chefs whom I call my colleagues and friends,” says Chef Shingo Akikuni. I'm overjoyed to be able to open my first restaurant in Coral Gables using the experience and skills I've learned working in restaurants in Tokyo, New York and Miami. I’m looking forward to serving our guests dishes that change with the seasons and to continue to add value to the culinary landscape in Miami.”

The 18-course menu at SHINGO will change seasonally, with a rotating selection of fresh sushi variations and Yakimono dishes which are prepared through traditional grilling practices. Guests can expect dishes such as Japanese Binchotan Charcoal Grilled Eel topped with caviar and fresh wasabi served with premium sake. Personally sourced and selected by Akikuni himself, SHINGO'S fresh ingredients are imported from Japan and found locally in Florida.

Shingo Akikuni is a third-generation sushi chef originally from Osaka, Japan, and is recognized as one of the best sushi chefs in Florida. Growing up making sushi at his family-owned restaurant in Osaka, Chef Akikuni was taught and trained by both his father and grandfather before coming to America in 2017. Previously, Akikuni served as Sushi Chef at an award-winning sushi restaurant in Tokyo, before moving to Miami and taking on positions as Sous Chef at Sushi Azabu, and, finally, as Executive Chef at Hiden, where the restaurant was awarded a Michelin Star.

SHINGO is located at the La Palma building at 112 Alhambra Circle, Coral Gables, FL 33134. SHINGO will be open for dinner five days a week (Tuesday – Saturday) with two seating options at 6:00 PM and 9:00 PM. The 18-course omakase experience is $180 per person, excluding tax and gratuity. An optional wine and sake pairing is available for $95 per person.

Tibor Hollo and Family Celebrate Grand Opening Of 'Tibor and Sheila Hollo Park" in Brickell

Tibor and Sheila Hollo have celebrated the opening of the coveted 35,500 square foot park that so many urban Miamians have grown to love and enjoy with their families. Located at 1814 Brickell Avenue, the heavily landscaped park includes enhanced playground equipment, shade structures, beautiful views, decorative fencing, modern lighting, meditation benches, and a dog park. The park also features a memorial created from one of the last remaining steel beams unearthed from the ruins of the World Trade Center.

A ceremony took place on Monday, May 1st at 11 a.m., including the Hollo family, friends, and team members. Dignitaries from the City of Miami and Miami-Dade County officially honored Tibor and Sheila Hollo as another example of the vast amount of time and resources that they have invested in the redevelopment of the Brickell corridor. Representative Carlos Gimenez recognized Mr. and Mrs. Hollo with a key to the city and a proclamation, stating that May 1st is now “Tibor and Sheila Hollo Day” in Brickell.

“We love the vibrant Brickell area and the hustle-bustle of its live-work-play environment, but there is always room for a restful, quiet greenspace for the public to enjoy,” said Sheila Hollo, philanthropist, community leader, mother, and grandmother.

In 2014, the Tibor and Sheila Hollo Charitable Foundation donated the funds necessary to acquire the land and pay for park improvements. Former City of Miami Commissioner Marc Sarnoff pushed to get the park redesigned and constructed for the Brickell community at the time.

The Hollo family, founders of Florida East Coast Realty (FECR), were early visionaries of the redevelopment of Brickell, Downtown Miami, and the Omni District. Founded over 60 years ago by Tibor Hollo, Florida East Coast Realty (FECR) has built more than 60 million square feet of construction, consisting of landmark residential and commercial high-rises, single-family homes, government buildings, marinas, high-end retail centers, warehouse complexes, and telecommunications centers. The company has developed, owned, and managed a wide array of properties, with sustained growth in multiple real estate sectors. With new ideas and ambitious projects on the drawing board, the Hollo family and the entire FECR team are eager and ready to continue innovating, pushing boundaries, and reshaping the Miami skyline for many years to come.
