"Who says you need a beach? Located in Miami’s booming Brickell neighborhood is East, the first U.S. outpost of Swire Hotels—the group behind the endlessly cool Middle House in Shanghai. Modern design is at the forefront for this downtown property: the glass prism exterior is meant to look like cascading water, and feng shui methods were used for all the interiors. Their rooftop bar, Sugar, with its teak bar and overflowing greenery, looks straight out of Bali—but its panoramic views of Biscayne Bay gives its true geographical location away." -Elise Taylor"
