TORONTO — Construction has begun on a new $150-million boutique hotel and condominium project in the heart of downtown Toronto, at 56 Blue Jays Way.
The project, named Bisha, is led by Charles Khabouth, Canada’s largest nightclub operator, and his INK Entertainment, in partnership with Lifetime Developments and its principals, Mel Pearl and Sam Herzog. “We want to be able to have the hip factor of a boutique hotel but with the attention to detail of a Four Seasons,” Khabouth told the Toronto Star. “It all starts with the doors. That’s the first thing people see. Impressions count.”
The new hotel will have two themed floors: a black and red themed Rock and Roll floor and a Hollywood Floor with a Beverley Hills theme. “Like his clubs, there will be a huge amount of space — 30,000 square feet — devoted to amenities, including food and beverage and a fitness centre,” said the Toronto Star’s Tony Wong.
The 41-storey development will include 332 condo units, selling from $300,000 to $1,500,000.

Fairmont Vancouver Airport Introduces Beekeeping Initiative

VANCOUVER — It’s been a busy couple of weeks at Fairmont Hotels & Resorts, first in China with the reopening of Fairmont Peace Hotel, and most recently at The Fairmont Vancouver Airport, where a beekeeping project has been announced.
The harvest, which is expected to double next year, will be supplied by 24 colonies of honeybees situated at McDonald Beach Park, just five minutes from the hotel.
“Our hives are now installed and are a first for any airport and hotel partnership,” Kamal Silva, the property’s executive chef, who is already planning a signature line of honey offerings, said in a press release. “We’re already seeing the fruits of our bees’ hard work as they forage and produce some of Richmond’s best local honey. In just the first couple of weeks, I’ve tasted raspberry and blueberry notes in our honey that will continue to be infused with flowers and herbs throughout the season.”
