Named after its vibrant vision and its potential to become a central hub for the community, The HueHub, also known as Holland Park, promises to redefine the Miami skyline and enhance the local lifestyle experience.

Designed by the renowned architectural firm Arquitectonica, The HueHub promises to be a striking addition to Miami’s architectural tapestry. Multiple towers will punctuate the skyline, with the tallest soaring an impressive 37 stories high.

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro seems to be making headlines both on and off the court this offseason. With the recent listing of his luxurious 8-bedroom, 9-bathroom Pinecrest mansion for $12.2 million, trade rumors surrounding the young star have reached a fever pitch.

The luxurious mansion, spanning 9,505 square feet, showcases its grandeur and elegance to potential buyers. Initially listed for $13 million in late April, shortly after the Miami Heat’s disappointing loss to the Boston Celtics in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference first round, the price was later reduced to $12.2 million, possibly reflecting strategic considerations or market dynamics.

This lavish estate boasts an array of amenities, including an outdoor kitchen and a “resort-style” pool, creating an ideal setting for relaxation and entertainment. Additionally, the home features an elevator, wine cellar, state-of-the-art kitchen, media room, summer kitchen, and cabana, embodying luxury and sophistication at every turn. Tyler Herro acquired this modern mansion in December 2022 for $10.5 million, setting a record for the highest sale in Pinecrest at the time of purchase.

Interestingly, Herro’s decision to list his mansion comes on the heels of his four-year, $120 million contract extension with the Miami Heat, signed just two months prior. With an additional $10 million in incentives, Herro’s lucrative deal underscores his value and potential in the NBA, further accentuating the significance of his mansion listing in the context of ongoing trade discussions and personal considerations.

After months of speculation, it’s official: Apple is making its mark on Miami Worldcenter, the sprawling 27-acre megadevelopment in Downtown Miami. A leasehold agreement filed to Miami-Dade County confirms the tech giant’s arrival, adding to the excitement surrounding this ambitious project.

Construction has been underway since November for a one-story, stand-alone retail building located at 725 NE First Avenue. With a price tag of $12 million, this development is poised to become a focal point within the Miami Worldcenter landscape. Situated on an 18,600-square-foot site, the building occupies a prime spot at the corner of Northeast Eighth Street, just west of the Jewel Box retail building.

Miami Worldcenter, akin to New York’s Hudson Yards, is one of the largest private projects in the country. Spearheaded by master developers CIM Group, Art Falcone, and Nitin Motwani, this mixed-use development promises approximately 300,000 square feet of retail space, offering a vibrant shopping and entertainment experience in the heart of Miami.

Already, the development has welcomed a lineup of notable brands, including Sephora, Lululemon, and Ray-Ban. Exciting additions on the horizon include Starbucks, The Container Store, Rihanna’s Savage X Fenty, and a bar concept by Nick Jonas, among others. Apple’s presence adds further prestige to this burgeoning retail hub.

Speculation about Apple’s involvement at Miami Worldcenter has been rife for months, but confirmation was elusive until now. Despite persistent rumors, both Miami Worldcenter and Apple remained tight-lipped on the matter. However, the recent leasehold agreement filing and confirmation from individuals involved in the project have dispelled any doubts.

Apple’s decision to establish a presence at Miami Worldcenter marks its sixth outpost in Miami-Dade County.

Ahrendts, renowned for her tenure at Burberry, left a lasting legacy on Apple’s retail strategy.

With Apple’s imminent arrival, Miami Worldcenter continues to solidify its position as a premier destination for shopping, dining, and entertainment. As construction progresses and anticipation mounts, residents and visitors alike eagerly await the unveiling of this iconic retail landmark.
