Marked by an intimate groundbreaking ceremony at 8800 Collins Avenue, the milestone welcomed Surfside city officials, project partners, and community members.

Strong Buyer Demand and Architectural Distinction

Sculptural Design Inspired by Surfside’s Coastal Character

h.wood Group to Debut Hidden Cocktail Bar at RIVANI Miami Beach

A New Tokyo-Inspired Speakeasy Joins South Beach’s Luxe Hospitality Scene

A new layer of intrigue and luxury is coming to Miami Beach. The h.wood Group—the celebrity-favorite hospitality brand behind culturally influential dining and nightlife concepts across Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and global markets—has announced plans to open a hidden cocktail lounge inside RIVANI Miami Beach. The Tokyo-inspired speakeasy will launch as part of Robert Rivani’s $100 million flagship office redevelopment, further elevating the building’s already world-class amenity collection.

A Secret, Design-Forward Escape in the Heart of RIVANI

Situated on the third-floor amenity level, the intimate lounge will be tucked behind a concealed access door, creating an immersive, transportive experience for guests. The design draws inspiration from the under-the-radar cocktail lounges of mid-century Japan, complete with warm ambient lighting, vintage textures, and curated vinyl that evokes the charm of the Shōwa era.

The h.wood Group Co-Founders Brian Toll and John Terzian describe the venue as intentionally intimate and atmospheric: “Hidden within RIVANI Miami Beach, the concept is crafted to feel like a discovery—intimate, effortless, and made for long nights that turn into mornings. For us, great spaces are driven by atmosphere and connection, and this one captures both through a distinctly Miami lens.”

Elevated Hospitality for RIVANI Tenants

Expected to open in Summer 2026, the speakeasy will serve handcrafted cocktails and elevated small plates in a design-forward space available exclusively to tenants of RIVANI Miami Beach. The lounge will offer private access for tenant events and gatherings, as well as dedicated keyed lockers for storing personal spirits collections—introducing a new level of hospitality, privacy, and convenience to the modern workplace.

Robert Rivani’s Vision for Transforming Office Culture

The hidden cocktail bar reflects Robert Rivani’s continued push to redefine how people work, socialize, and entertain within office environments. As Rivani explains, “We are giving our tenants the ability to entertain like they’re at a private members club in Tokyo, right here in Miami Beach. The h.wood Group has mastered the art of creating spaces that people remember, and bringing their energy and hospitality experience to RIVANI Miami Beach perfectly complements our vision to create environments that redefine how people work, play, and live.”

This collaboration marks the latest milestone for RIVANI Miami Beach, building on recent headlines such as Playboy Enterprises signing on as anchor tenant for its new global headquarters. Designed by the award-winning Rockwell Group, the redevelopment introduces a new Class X standard to South Beach, with amenities including a full-service concierge, valet, Monarch Athletic Club fitness and wellness center, private event venues, and now the h.wood-operated speakeasy.

A New Benchmark in Miami Beach Office Hospitality

With its blend of high design, curated experiences, and members-only exclusivity, the hidden cocktail lounge adds yet another world-class feature to one of Miami Beach’s most ambitious commercial transformations. As RIVANI Miami Beach continues to reshape expectations for luxury workspace environments, the h.wood Group’s upcoming speakeasy brings a sophisticated, culturally rich layer to the building’s evolving identity.

Ken Griffin to Develop a Private Superyacht Marina on Miami Beach’s Terminal Island

A Major New Waterfront Project by One of America’s Wealthiest Investors

Billionaire hedge-fund founder Ken Griffin has received approval to develop a private superyacht marina on Miami Beach’s Terminal Island, adding yet another landmark project to his expanding South Florida footprint. The marina—intended exclusively for Griffin, his vessels, and his guests—marks one of the most unique and high-end waterfront developments undertaken in Miami Beach in recent years.

What the Marina Will Include

According to city planning documents, the approximately 3.7-acre site will be transformed into a highly specialized, ultra-private maritime facility. Plans call for roughly six deep-water slips capable of accommodating large superyachts, including vessels exceeding 300 feet. The design includes multiple purpose-built structures: a gatehouse with security offices, a crew pavilion with gym, sauna, and rooftop pool, an operations building with repair shop and staff offices, and a luxury owner’s pavilion featuring its own pool, lounge, and entertainment spaces. The total built program is expected to exceed 30,000 square feet.

City Approval and Conditions

The Miami Beach Planning Board granted the necessary conditional use permit, though with several required stipulations. Any special events held on-site will require coordination with the U.S. Coast Guard due to the marina’s proximity to major maritime operations. All parking must remain self-contained on Terminal Island, ensuring no spillover into surrounding neighborhoods. And should the marina ever change ownership, the new owner must return to the board for review. Approval represents a significant milestone for Griffin, whose development plans continue to reshape parts of Miami and Miami Beach.

Why Terminal Island Is a Strategic Choice

Terminal Island sits between South Beach and PortMiami, offering rare deep-water access and maritime infrastructure capable of supporting the world’s largest private yachts. Few waterfront parcels in Miami Beach can accommodate this scale of vessel operations. The site’s location near the cruise port, MacArthur Causeway, and major shipping channels further elevates its appeal. As marine experts noted in early reporting, the site benefits from exceptional depth and maneuverability—qualities that are increasingly scarce in Miami’s built-out waterfront.

Impact on Miami’s Luxury Landscape

Griffin’s move signals a continued deepening of investment in Miami following the relocation of Citadel and Citadel Securities to the city. Beyond his corporate presence, Griffin has been actively acquiring prime land in both Miami Beach and Brickell, including the site of what is slated to become one of Miami’s tallest office towers. This private marina further underscores Miami’s growing traction as a global hub for ultra-luxury yachting, complementing the region’s expanding ecosystem of high-net-worth residents, large-scale events, and bespoke services.

A New Chapter for Terminal Island

Historically an industrial and logistics zone, Terminal Island is now seeing renewed interest from private and institutional investors. Griffin’s marina is poised to set a new benchmark for exclusivity and design, transforming a utilitarian waterfront into a prestigious amenity for one of the world’s wealthiest individuals. As construction progresses, the project is expected to bring heightened attention to Miami Beach’s limited deep-water inventory and its future potential.

Four Seasons Private Residences Coconut Grove Breaks Ground in Miami

Developers Ugo Colombo’s CMC Group and Nadim Ashi’s Fort Partners have recently broken ground on Four Seasons Private Residences Coconut Grove, marking a major milestone for Miami’s luxury condo landscape. The project represents Florida’s first-ever standalone Four Seasons-branded residential tower, offering a purely residential experience without an attached hotel — a rarity in the global Four Seasons portfolio.

Located on a prime 1.16-acre waterfront parcel at 2699 S. Bayshore Drive, the 20-story development is already over 50% pre-sold, with prices starting just under $6 million. Early buyers include a significant number of local residents downsizing from single-family homes or upgrading from other condominiums in search of elevated Four Seasons service.

A Landmark Moment for Coconut Grove

With the groundbreaking taking place in early November, Four Seasons Private Residences Coconut Grove is set to become one of the most prestigious addresses in Miami. Coconut Grove’s lush waterfront setting, walkable village center, and refined lifestyle continue to attract buyers from across South Florida and beyond.

For the Four Seasons brand, this project signals growing demand for hotel-level services delivered in a private residential-only environment — a model that appeals to affluent buyers seeking exclusivity, security, and high-touch service without the constant activity of a hospitality component.

Design, Development & Team

The project brings together two of the most respected teams in luxury real estate:

• Developer: CMC Group (Ugo Colombo)
• Co-Developer: Fort Partners (Nadim Ashi)
• Architecture: Revuelta Architecture International
• Interiors: Michele Bönan of Florence
• Landscape: Lush, Grove-inspired tropical design

Together, they are creating a sculptural, curved tower designed to maximize Biscayne Bay views while blending naturally into Coconut Grove’s signature canopy of banyan and gumbo limbo trees.

Residences & Private Home Features

Four Seasons Private Residences Coconut Grove will feature:

• 70 ultra-luxury residences across 20 stories
• Private elevator foyers for every home
• 11-foot ceilings with floor-to-ceiling glass
• Custom-designed Molteni kitchens
• Premium Sub-Zero and Wolf appliance packages
• Italian marble baths
• Deep terraces framing unobstructed bayfront views

A limited collection of penthouse and upper-level residences will offer expansive layouts approaching 10,000 square feet.

World-Class Amenities & Four Seasons Services

As the first standalone Four Seasons residential tower in Florida, the property will deliver an elevated lifestyle built around privacy, personalization, and wellness. Planned amenities include:

• Resort-style bayfront pool deck and cabanas
• Resident-only restaurant and lounge
• Wellness spa with sauna, cold plunge, and therapy offerings
• State-of-the-art fitness center with private training spaces
• Library, children’s room, and multipurpose event areas
• Full suite of Four Seasons services, including valet, concierge, housekeeping options, and personalized in-residence services

The building will be staffed and operated to Four Seasons’ global hospitality standards, bringing five-star luxury to everyday living.

Unbeatable Coconut Grove Location

Positioned along 2699 S Bayshore Drive in Coconut Grove, the luxury tower sits directly across from Biscayne Bay and the waterfront parks. Residents will enjoy immediate access to:

• CocoWalk and the Grove’s dining and retail
• Marinas, yacht clubs, and bayfront green spaces
• Top-tier private schools including Ransom Everglades
• Coral Gables, Brickell, downtown Miami, and MIA

It’s an exceptional location offering walkability, serenity, and prestige — all within one of Miami’s most historic neighborhoods.

A Strong Year for CMC Group in the Grove

This recent groundbreaking comes as CMC Group approaches the delivery of Vita at Grove Isle, another highly anticipated luxury project expected to welcome residents by year’s end. Combined, these developments reinforce Coconut Grove’s position as one of Miami’s most sought-after enclaves for high-end waterfront living.

Le Specialità Opens in the Miami Design District, Bringing Milan’s Most Beloved Trattoria to the U.S.

Credit: Jason Varney

After nearly five decades defining the Milanese dining experience, Le Specialità has officially opened its first U.S. location in the heart of the Miami Design District. The celebrated Milan trattoria, founded in 1977 on Via Pietro Calvi, is known for its authentic Italian cooking, iconic pizza, and warm neighborhood spirit — now re-imagined under the creative direction of Spicy Hospitality Group (SHG), the same team behind The Joyce, one of South Beach’s most popular dining destinations.

From Milan to Miami: A Legacy of Simplicity and Excellence

Le Specialità’s philosophy has always been rooted in authenticity, seasonality, and the joy of genuine hospitality. Its Miami debut brings that same spirit to a new audience, bridging the timeless dining culture of Milan with the vibrant energy of Miami. Guests can expect a refined yet approachable menu of house-made pastas, fresh seafood, and meats — alongside the trattoria’s famed pizzas that have become a Milanese legend. Signature selections include the Margherita, Truffle Pizza, and Piccantissimi, topped with chili pepper pesto and pine nuts. The secondi showcase classic Italian preparations such as Branzino alla Siciliana, Dover Sole Meunière, and Veal Milanese, followed by elegant desserts like pistachio gelato and a traditional tiramisu layered with mascarpone mousse, espresso, and cocoa.

An Immersive Culinary and Artistic Experience

Designed by the award-winning Rockwell Group, Le Specialità’s interiors blend Milan’s radical design era of the 1960s and 1970s with Miami’s festive color and warmth. The result is a space that feels glamorous yet unpretentious, defined by sweeping curves, terrazzo floors, bold geometries, and a glowing green lavastone bar.

Founder Andre Sakhai curated an art collection that includes works by Jean-Michel Basquiat, KAWS, Takashi Murakami, Rashid Johnson, and others, alongside vintage Italian photography — a visual bridge between Milan’s creative soul and Miami’s contemporary energy.

Wine and Cocktail Program

The beverage program features a 260-label wine list focused on Italy’s top regions, with rare vintages from Burgundy and Bordeaux — including Le Pin 1990, Pétrus 1986, and Pavie 1952. Signature cocktails like the Milano Mai Tai, Fragola Basilico, and Espresso Italiano complement the menu’s coastal Italian flavors.

A Perfect Fit for the Design District

Located at 40 NE 41st Street, Le Specialità joins a growing list of destination restaurants redefining the Miami Design District dining scene — an area where art, fashion, and food converge.

“Bringing Le Specialità to the U.S. marks a major milestone for Spicy Hospitality Group,” said Andre Sakhai, Principal & Founder of Spicy Hospitality Group. “The restaurant has long been a cornerstone of Milan’s dining culture, and the Miami Design District is the ideal setting for its American debut, reflecting our vision to build a collection of restaurants that embody the creativity, ambition, and energy of this city.”

David Rockwell, Founder and President of Rockwell Group, added: “The design concept for Le Specialità blends the bold, playful, and artistic spirit of Milan in the 1960s and ’70s with the rich, dynamic, and festive culture of present-day Miami. Sweeping curves and oversized graphic elements define each space in the restaurant.”

A New Era for Spicy Hospitality Group

Le Specialità marks another milestone for Spicy Hospitality Group, which continues to expand its presence in Miami following the success of The Joyce in South Beach.

Following Le Specialità’s opening, SHG will next debut Oniku Karyu and Yasu in the coming weeks, further cementing its footprint in Miami and underscoring the group’s momentum as one of the most exciting and creative new forces in hospitality today.

Bagatelle Miami River Opens to the Public Friday, November 21

Bagatelle, the French-Mediterranean brand famed for its high-energy, joie-de-vivre dining style, is opening its waterfront outpost at 311 NW South River Drive. The grand opening to the public is slated for Friday, November 21, 2025, based on the venue’s first available reservations shown on the official SevenRooms booking page for Bagatelle Miami River.

Bagatelle’s own venue page now lists address, access by car or boat, contact info, and posted opening hours for the Miami River location—another strong indicator that service commencement is imminent.

Why Bagatelle is such a draw

Founded by Rémi Laba and Aymeric Clémente, Bagatelle blends upscale Mediterranean cuisine with a celebratory, Riviera-inspired atmosphere—think lively dinners that transition into a scene. The brand describes itself as bringing a “French Riviera luxury” spirit to each destination, which has helped cultivate a worldwide following.

Today, Bagatelle Group counts ~15 venues worldwide, with Miami River expanding the brand’s South Florida footprint alongside its established Miami South Beach location. Additional destinations span London, Dubai, St. Tropez, St. Barth, Tulum, Los Cabos, and more, with further openings planned.

Momentum on the Miami River dining scene

The Miami River continues to heat up with high-profile restaurant concepts:

• Casa Neos debuted in June 2024, adding a multi-level restaurant, beach club, and rooftop to the riverfront lineup.
• Habibi Miami opened in October 2024, bringing a French-Moroccan supper-club energy to the water’s edge.
• Looking ahead, Call Me Gaby plans a two-story, ~8,500-square-foot outpost on the river, part of a broader wave of new leases and openings announced earlier this year.

What to expect at Bagatelle Miami River

Expect the brand’s signature Mediterranean-leaning menu and celebratory service culture—arrive by land or by boat, with valet and dock options available. With listed hours that include late-night service and weekend daytime slots, Bagatelle Miami River appears tailored for both lively dinners and long, social weekend sessions.

Bagatelle Miami River Reservations

Early demand is likely to be high. Reservations are now surfacing for Friday, November 21, which we’re treating as the public grand-opening date barring any last-minute changes by the operator. If you’re planning to go opening weekend, consider booking promptly.
