Imaginatively designed by CallisonRTKL to serve as an oasis from the bustling energy of downtown, the luxury hotel will be connected to the 100-foot retail and amenity podium known as The Collection at Oceanwide Plaza. The retail space design by the global architecture firm will lend to experience-driven guest accommodations amid a dynamic environment for innovative retailers to showcase unique merchandising concepts and sought-after products.
