Unveiling the Future of Luxury in Beverly Hills: A $10-Billion Development
Everyone is now invited to experience the high life in Beverly Hills, as new details about a floating public garden, part of a more than $10-billion luxury housing and hotel complex, have been unveiled by its London-based developer, Cain. The One Beverly Hills project, which has been in the making for over two decades, promises to bring a new level of luxury and sophistication to the iconic city.
Cain, which started work on the high-rise project over a year ago, has released an updated look at the sprawling botanical gardens that will surround the complex at the intersection of Wilshire and Santa Monica boulevards. City officials agreed to let Cain build the two tallest towers in Beverly Hills, with the understanding that the high-rise development would leave open space for 8.5 acres of gardens on the 17.5-acre site.

A New Era of Luxury and Sustainability
According to Jonathan Goldstein, chief executive of Cain, “We regard the gardens as the soul of the project.” More than half of the gardens will be open to the public, making it a unique and accessible space for both locals and tourists. One Beverly Hills is one of the biggest real estate developments by cost under construction in North America, with a total investment of over $10 billion.
The complex was conceived by London-based architect Foster + Partners, led by Norman Foster, an English lord known for designing iconic buildings such as the Gherkin and the Apple Inc. headquarters in Cupertino, California. The development is slated to open before the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles and will feature some of the priciest condos and hotel suites in the country.
One Beverly Hills will contain as many as 45 retail and dining outlets, each set within a distinct environment.
