He wanted to corner the family market so he held a press conference to announce the Island Waterpark.This waterpark was billed as largest indoor waterpark in the world. Costing over $100 million dollars, this year-round indoor waterpark will sit in a retractable glass-pane roof and will consist of 103,000-square-feet of space.

NELA Homes, a Los Angeles-based developer, has received approval from the Los Angeles City Council for a mid-rise hotel in Hollywood.
NELA, located in the eastside neighborhood of Highland Park, proposed the hotel at the end of 2020. In the interim, the firm obtained a zoning change from the City Planning Commission, which was approved before this week’s City Council vote, Urbanize LA reported.

El Cosmico is the name of the first hotel in the world that uses 3D printing technology in its construction. The property is expected to open in 2024 in Texas.

The former 21-acre venue will be relocated onto a 62-acre land, with new hospitality services provided such as an infinity pool, an open-air spa, and a communal space. Since Liz Lambert has high hopes that the property will become more than just a hotel, the innovative 3D printing technology really adds some awe-inspiring elements to the whole project, whether it’s the dome, vault, or parabolic forms of the architecture.
