Here are key takeaways:

Miami’s first supertall skyscrapers are on the way. The 100-story Waldorf Astoria Hotel & Residences, at 1,049 feet, will become the city’s tallest building when completed in 2028 — and several other “supertall” projects are planned for Brickell and downtown, including the Delano Residences and Citadel’s global headquarters.

An underground garage in Little Havana has become Miami’s buzziest art hub. Tunnel Projects, founded three years ago when artists rented vacant spaces in a strip mall basement for as little as $150 a month, now houses about 15 artists and has drawn attention from curators at the ICA, the Perez Art Museum Miami and commercial galleries.

Prices at Coral Gables’ Granada Golf Course are rising up to 42%. City leaders approved the increases to reduce overcrowding and offset a projected $600,000 loss this year, but the changes have drawn pushback from longtime golf association members and seniors who say the new rates and elimination of reserved tee times could force their groups to shutter.
