Skolnick Architecture converts historic Hamptons church into an arts centre

Tall windows and timber framing feature in this 1830s church building in New York, which has been converted into a cultural facility by Skolnick Architecture and Design Partnership.

The Church is located in Sag Harbor, a former whaling village that spans the towns of East Hampton and Southampton on Long Island.

The gabled church has its own bell tower

The original building, which dates to 1836, housed the Methodist Church of Sag Harbor until 2008 when the congregation moved to a new home.

After several proposals for the building fell through, the property was purchased by the married artists Eric Fischl and April Gornik, who have lived in the area for decades.

The exterior was restored to look like it did originally

They set out to transform the building into a community arts centre with living quarters for an artist-in-residence – and they hired the New York firm Skolnick Architecture and Design Partnership to oversee the adaptive reuse project.

The design team, working closely with the clients, devised a renovation plan that preserves many of the building's historical elements. The original design draws from a range of styles, including Italianate and Greek Revival.

The church sits on a stone base

"Our approach recognises the rich history of the facility, while celebrating contemporary interventions that facilitate a transcendence of typology," the team said.

Roughly rectangular in plan, the building has three levels and encompasses 12,000 square feet (1,115 square metres). The exterior was largely restored to the original specifications.

A timber gabled roof covers the space

The building has a stone base, while its upper portion is a timber-framed structure with facades wrapped in white clapboard siding.

A gabled roof covers the bulk of the building. The entrance elevation features a restored belfry, including the original bell.

A wreath-like chandelier dangles above the staircase

In the rear of the facility, the team constructed a modest, cube-shaped addition that will eventually be covered in vines. The two-storey extension holds living quarters for resident artists.

Inside the converted church, one finds bright spaces and a fluid layout.

Upon entering, visitors encounter a lofty foyer with a wide staircase leading up to the middle level. Suspended overhead is a circular chandelier with a wreath-like appearance.

The middle level formerly held a sanctuary and now serves as a vast space for exhibitions and events.

The sanctuary has been turned into an events space

The double-height room is surrounded by walls with exposed timber columns and beams, establishing "a compelling dialogue between past and present". The wooden roof structure was also left exposed.

Tall, glazed apertures usher in daylight and offer a connection to the surrounding neighbourhood. Mounted within the windows are portraits of notable local artists that were painted by the client, Fischl, and transferred to translucent film.

"They present themselves as a modern interpretation of traditional stained-glass windows," the team said.

A glass lift contrasts with the historic interiors

The exhibition space is ringed on three sides by a mezzanine clad in pale white oak. On the east side of the mezzanine, just below the bell tower, the team created a cosy library with built-in shelving and a custom-built wooden study table.

In photographs, the building's ground storey reads like a basement, owing to its lower ceiling and 22-inch-thick (56-centimetre) masonry walls.

The church dates from the 1830s

This level holds an open-plan maker space and studio, along with the bottom level of the residential extension. A south-facing door leads to a sunken terrace and public garden.

"Window and door openings around the perimeter bring ample light into the space, highlighting the richness and texture of the natural materials," the team said.

The three levels of the building are connected by a glass elevator, which serves as a counterpoint to "the rustic qualities found in the original wood framing". Various staircases also connect the different levels.

The client painted portraits of local artists for the windows

The project was completed last fall. Once it's safe for people to gather, The Church plans to host exhibitions, artist talks, readings, lectures, performances and educational classes.

Deconsecrated churches have become popular venues for adaptive reuse. Other conversions include a church building in Los Angeles that has become a co-working and event space, a 1960s church in Quebec that has become a modern library, and a Methodist church in London that now serves as a minimalist home.

We were thrilled to collaborate with interior designer Bryan Graybill on custom frames for his East Hampton home, featured in @galeriemagazine’s Summer 2020 issue. Read the full article at the link in bio! #Repost @bryangraybill ・・・ Over the bed and into the dressing room: I am a huge advocate of paneling and plaster. Typically, I bring the plaster “up and over” in lieu of a crown or cornice. Alternatively, I also like to overlay panels on walls almost to the ceiling as an “applied layer”. Putty & Mauve, my two favorite colors. Art advisor Brady Doty proposed “Double Heads” by our neighbor George Condo. A De Le Cuona cafe curtain and Rosemary Halgarten acoustical alpaca 🦙 on the dressing banquette. The vanity chair was a vintage score from an officer’s club on the Northfork, and we found Edwardian rose brass knobs on a visit to Tetbury.

Interior Design Ideas: New Home Inspiration

Hello, my wonderful friends! How are you today? I am truly happy to start slowing down this week and start my kids’ back-to-school shopping. Doing it for three kids isn’t an easy task, but I will try to have some fun. Now, let’s focus on this new “Interior Design Ideas”.

Built by Timber Trails Development Company and with interiors by the talented Julie Howard (previously featured here – a must-see post!), here, here, here, here, here & here), this beautiful home is an east coast inspired home located in Western Springs, a suburb about 20 miles outside of Chicago. The home’s exterior commands attention with it’s stately tower topped with X details on the windows. Inside the tower is a three story floating staircase that has a marvelous view of the chandelier above. When you enter the front door, a long hallway lined with mercury glass lanterns leads you to the open concept kitchen and family room where a built-in banquette steals the show because of its leaded glass windows.

I hope you enjoy this tour and make sure to pin your favorite interior design pictures!

Trump In Hamptons For Fundraisers; So Are Protesters

BRIDGEHAMPTON, NY – President Donald Trump visited the Southampton home of developer Stephen Ross Friday afternoon, the second of two re-election fundraisers in the Hamptons that were expected to bring in $10 million, while hundreds turned out across the East End to protest against the president’s rhetoric and policies.

Ross, the billionaire owner of the NFL’s Miami Dolphins as well as fitness companies SoulCycle and Equinox, has himself been in the headlines for several days, as critics called for boycotts of the two firms.

Before boarding Air Force One to head to Long Island Friday morning, Trump called Ross a “great friend of mine.”

The president’s first stop on the island was at the Bridgehampton home of builder Joe Farrell.

Meanwhile, in Water Mill, protesters were making their voices heard Friday. “Stop hate, save America,” they chanted at a “Rally to Save America, Stop Hate” hosted by the Progressive East End Reformers/NYPAN.

“I feel it’s my duty to as an American citizen to speak out,” said Angela Giovanniello, of East Quogue, one of of about 250 protesters at the rally.

“I feel our government is no longer working in our best interests. Instead we are working for the interests of Vladimir Putin at the expense of our democracy.”

There were a few Trump supporters among the crowd, including Diana Hinojosa, of Water Mill. “I think the president has done a lot of great stuff,” Hinojosa said. “No one is perfect…but he’s done a lot of great stuff.”

The protesters confronted Hinojosa and her husband Fausto, himself a “proud immigrant” who arrived in California in the 50s; he said immigration has been an issue for decades but he supports any sitting president of the United States. Those railing against Trump demanded to know why Hinojosa would support Trump, blasting him for recent immigration raids that left children unattended. Many asked why she had shown up at all. She answered that she believed in freedom of speech and refused to engage in the arguments. Speakers addressing the large crowd included Sister Mary Beth Moore, who works with immigrants in Hampton Bays through the Centro Corazon de Maria; she was arrested recently for protesting treatment of children at the border.

“The hate must stop,” she said, quoting Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Mahatma Ghandi. “We must be endlessly creative to stop the hate.”

Activist Jackie Gavron questioned the voting record of GOP Rep. Lee Zeldin, who was expected to accompany Trump Friday. Despite his “boyish, mild-mannered” demeanor, Gavron said, Zeldin is a “right-wing extremist” who votes against background checks on gun purchases and a ban on assault rifles, even after recent mass shootings.

Others driving by, however, shouted, “Trump 2020!” and “Trump is No. 1!”

Trump was to depart Francis S. Gabreski Airport in Westhampton at 3:50 p.m., headed for his golf club in New Jersey.

Word of the fundraisers had sparked a backlash, with some critics turning to social media to say that they are boycotting Ross’s businesses.

“Hamptons SoulCycle users — time to change where you work out if you’re against caging children, destroying the planet, and slaughtering our fellow citizens with military weaponry,” Kate Mueth of East Hampton wrote on social media this week. But according to a post in the Daily Beast, SoulCycle’s chief executive officer offered free “social justice” rides to “customers for causes hand-picked by each of her hundreds of instructors.” CEO Melanie Whelan called the week a “difficult” one, the post said.

Protesters have been mobilizing for Trump’s Long Island visit since it was announced.

“This rally is critically important because right now our nation’s democracy and even its sense of humanity are under serious threat,” said Amy Turner, one of the organizers of the “Rally to Save America, Stop Hate” rally. “We must stand up for our values and and against Trump’s blatant racism and provocation of hatred, the inhumane treatment of migrants, the refusal to protect our elections from foreign interference, and the dismantling of environmental regulation.”

Model Chrissy Teigen and comedian Billy Eichner both took to social media to encourage Equinox and SoulCycle members to cancel their gym memberships.

Kenny Stills, a wide receiver on the Ross-owned Miami Dolphins, took his employer to task over perceived hypocrisy regarding the Ross Initiative in Sports for Equality. The charity seeks to use sports to eliminate racial discrimination and “improve race relations,” according to its website. Stills is an outspoken critic of the NFL’s treatment of Colin Kaepernick, who has been kept out of the league since protesting police brutality by kneeling during the national anthem.

“You can’t have a non-profit with this mission statement then open your doors to Trump,” Stills tweeted Wednesday.

Stills said he’s received death threats on social media because of his stance.

Heading to the Hamptons. Pres Trump departs WH this morning en route two big money fundraisers in the tony East end of Long Island. Expected to raise $10-million for his campaign and RNC, though causing some headaches for event host Stephen Ross and his fitness firms.

— Mark Knoller (@markknoller) August 9, 2019

Trump supporters welcome President

Despite the protest, many on the East End are thrilled that Trump is visiting their hometown. “Welcome to the Hamptons, President Trump,” one woman wrote on Facebook.

Added another, also on Facebook: “Love my President!

Traffic woes

Residents bemoaned potential traffic impacts of Trump’s visit to the Hamptons. Southampton Town Police said that while exact locations have not been divulged by the Secret Service, motorists should expect road closures throughout the day.

“We’re just not sure when or where,” police said. ‘The times and locations are confidential.”

One man said on Facebook that he is avoiding the traffic altogether: “Time to stay home,” he wrote. “Not dealing with the traffic and road closures.”

But police said they anticipate any disruptions to traffic flow to dissipate quickly, with the president moved expeditiously where he needs to go.

Protestors slam Zeldin

Those protesting also voiced their frustration with Zeldin, who also accompanied Trump through a round of campaign fundraisers last summer.

“I hope that tomorrow’s peaceful protest brings Mr. Zeldin to be aware of the concerns of a large portion of his constituents,” organizer Kate Mueth said. “We deeply need to have in person, open and problem-solving discussions in town hall gatherings so we can find ways to come together and work to address these most urgent concerns. I would love to see him leaning in and coming to the table of solutions.”

Mueth also said the practice of coming together to stand against actions, tactics and positions the government is taking is a fundamental American right.

“We will not sit idly by but instead we will demand action on the reckless lack of governance that is making guns too easy to acquire to slaughter our innocent citizens. Lee Zeldin takes a load of dollars from the NRA, that’s one more problem with Mr. Zeldin. We shall not sit idly by while the stewardship of our planet goes to waste and is blatantly harmed for greed and laziness’ sake.”

Zeldin did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

It’s not the first time Trump’s visits to the East End and Long Island made headlines: Last year, Trump arrived on Air Force One at Francis S. Gabreski Airport in Westhampton, and his visit sparked both strong protests and steadfast shows of support.

Trump visited Long Island to blast deadly MS-13 street gang

Trump has also visited Long Island twice in recent years to take a tough stance against gang violence, blasting MS-13 and its trail of death, brutality and destruction across the nation.

Trump spoke at the Morrelly Homeland Security Center in Bethpage, blasting the violent street gang and promising to rid gang-ravaged Long Island communities of the “animals” on their streets during a visit to the island.

Sen. Chuck Schumer fired back on Twitter, saying, “When all of our great-great-grandparents came to America they weren’t ‘animals,’ and these people aren’t either.”

The gruesome discovery in a Central Islip park in April 2017 of four young men murdered by MS-13 members brought an international spotlight to Suffolk County, with elected officials and law enforcement vowing to fight back.

In 2017, the president spoke in Brentwood, where two teen girls were brutally murdered by MS-13 members in 2016.

“They butchered those little girls,” Trump said. “They kidnap. They extort. They rape and they rob. They prey on children. They shouldn’t be here.” The president also said the gang had transformed Long Island’s “peaceful parks and beautiful, quiet neighborhoods into blood-stained killing fields.”

— Page Six Emily (@PageSixEmily) August 9, 2019

Looking ahead, protesters said action is needed, including voter registration, that those registered as Independence Party members should become Democrats with an eye toward unity, and longer hours for the Board of Elections.

Two men standing across the road refused to say whether or not they were Trump supporters. When asked, one said, “Even if I were, I wouldn’t say it now.”

Skolnick Architecture converts historic Hamptons church into an arts centre

Tall windows and timber framing feature in this 1830s church building in New York, which has been converted into a cultural facility by Skolnick Architecture and Design Partnership.

The Church is located in Sag Harbor, a former whaling village that spans the towns of East Hampton and Southampton on Long Island.

The gabled church has its own bell tower

The original building, which dates to 1836, housed the Methodist Church of Sag Harbor until 2008 when the congregation moved to a new home.

After several proposals for the building fell through, the property was purchased by the married artists Eric Fischl and April Gornik, who have lived in the area for decades.

The exterior was restored to look like it did originally

The church sits on a stone base

"Our approach recognises the rich history of the facility, while celebrating contemporary interventions that facilitate a transcendence of typology," the team said.

Roughly rectangular in plan, the building has three levels and encompasses 12,000 square feet (1,115 square metres). The exterior was largely restored to the original specifications.

A timber gabled roof covers the space

The building has a stone base, while its upper portion is a timber-framed structure with facades wrapped in white clapboard siding.

A gabled roof covers the bulk of the building. The entrance elevation features a restored belfry, including the original bell.

A wreath-like chandelier dangles above the staircase

In the rear of the facility, the team constructed a modest, cube-shaped addition that will eventually be covered in vines. The two-storey extension holds living quarters for resident artists.

Inside the converted church, one finds bright spaces and a fluid layout.

Upon entering, visitors encounter a lofty foyer with a wide staircase leading up to the middle level. Suspended overhead is a circular chandelier with a wreath-like appearance.

The middle level formerly held a sanctuary and now serves as a vast space for exhibitions and events.

The sanctuary has been turned into an events space

The double-height room is surrounded by walls with exposed timber columns and beams, establishing "a compelling dialogue between past and present". The wooden roof structure was also left exposed.

"They present themselves as a modern interpretation of traditional stained-glass windows," the team said.

A glass lift contrasts with the historic interiors

In photographs, the building's ground storey reads like a basement, owing to its lower ceiling and 22-inch-thick (56-centimetre) masonry walls.

The church dates from the 1830s

This level holds an open-plan maker space and studio, along with the bottom level of the residential extension. A south-facing door leads to a sunken terrace and public garden.

"Window and door openings around the perimeter bring ample light into the space, highlighting the richness and texture of the natural materials," the team said.

The client painted portraits of local artists for the windows

The project was completed last fall. Once it's safe for people to gather, The Church plans to host exhibitions, artist talks, readings, lectures, performances and educational classes.

Photography is by Scott Frances.

Grove builder Rick Caruso reimagines Miramar resort with splashes of seaside splendor

LA Times, by Roger Vincent, March 3, 2019

In a quiet garden at the Rosewood Miramar Beach resort in Montecito is a white marble statue of the Buddha, laughing while four small children clamber up his side.

The latter is a clue this is not your typical religious shrine.

The Buddha had only one child, according to texts, but resort owner Rick Caruso has four — and so the playful stone statue has a bigger brood.

It’s just one of the subtle references to the Caruso family that can be found at the new resort, which may be the most intensely personal — and upscale — project yet for the Los Angeles real estate magnate.

Caruso, who started his development career with a modest mall on La Cienega Boulevard, went on to build successively grander shopping venues including the landmark Grove, the Fairfax District “lifestyle center” that pioneered a wave of outdoor malls that meld shopping with food and entertainment.

Last year, he completed a $200-million village center for tony Pacific Palisades with small shops and restaurants evocative of East Hampton’s main street.

Now, the 60-year-old has reached higher still, completing his first venture into the hotel business with a splash that he hopes will earn the Miramar prestigious five-star and five-diamond ratings.

And it has prices to match, with rooms that cost more than $800 a night on the low end and reach $5,575 for a grand suite. Rooms over the sand begin at $1,075 a night.

Its nearest competitors are the four-star Four Seasons Resort the Biltmore Santa Barbara and the four-diamond Ritz-Carlton Bacara, Santa Barbara.

And though it is operated by Rosewood Hotel Group, a Hong Kong-based chain with luxury hotels across the globe, it is very much a Caruso property.

Among other family references are his children’s initials capping the directional arrows on a weather vane and the Caruso family crest mounted discreetly amid a leaded glass window overlooking the Pacific.

Then, point blank, there is Caruso’s, the resort’s swank Italian restaurant.

Patrons can dine a few feet above the sand, viewing the surf from high-backed booths intentionally reminiscent of Perino’s, a midcentury Los Angeles restaurant on Wilshire Boulevard that catered to the city’s business and entertainment industry elite for decades.

Caruso hopes the Miramar won’t change hands again for a long time, which is one of the reasons he added so many personal references during its creation.

“I build them with the hope and dream they will stay in the family until the end of time,” he said. “It’s just a fun thing to create a link between generations.”

On a recent chilly afternoon, Caruso cut a rakish figure strolling through the hotel’s Manor House in a snug gray double-breasted suit, wearing dark glasses and trailing behind his leashed dog Dodge — very much carrying himself like the man Forbes said is worth $4 billion. The docile golden retriever is his constant companion and later fell asleep at Caruso’s feet as he sat in the Miramar’s main restaurant, Malibu Farm, which serves farm-to-table fare.

Caruso appeared a bit weary himself, understandably. After buying the property for $50 million in 2007, he spent more than a decade working with the neighbors and navigating a complicated approval process that required applications to state, county and local agencies. In recent months, it was a race to get the resort ready for its March 1 official opening date, with nearly 1,300 laborers a day working double shifts.

And he’s had other duties in addition to running his existing properties and building in Pacific Palisades. As chairman of the USC Board of Trustees, he has faced tumult in recent months including the removal of Marshall School of Business Dean James Ellis and a $215-million settlement for former patients of disgraced campus doctor George Tyndall in a sexual abuse scandal.

Amid the tumult, he’s kept focused on his ambitious goals for the Miramar, which he proclaims are nothing less than “to reinvent hotels” �� with a nod to the customs of yesterday’s leisure class. “The grand old hotels of Europe were more like residences.”

Caruso has a reputation as a big-spending developer who packs expensive details into his projects to help give them the kind of visual punch that led the Wall Street Journal to call him “the Walt Disney of retail” last year.

The Grove and the Americana at Brand mall in Glendale reflect his bent for extravagance and his personal tastes, such as jaunty Frank Sinatra tunes piped outdoors and, at the Americana, an 18-foot-tall gold-plated statue called “Spirit of American Youth” rising in the middle of a dancing fountain.

At the Miramar, however, Caruso has gotten a chance to indulge the tastes developed first through his childhood in Beverly Hills and later through accumulation of the fortune that has made him one of the wealthiest businessmen in Los Angeles.

The resort takes some broad design cues from the Beverly Hills Hotel, which took its famous form during a 1940s makeover created by Paul Williams, a revered Los Angeles architect whose influence now pervades the Miramar.

Perino’s signature booths were designed by Williams, who died in 1980. The hotel is meant to have the look and feel of a grand 1930s home designed by Williams, starting at the black lacquered front door with a brass mail slot.

Inside, guests find themselves in a soaring mansion-style foyer flanked by a curving staircase made using Williams’ blueprints for a legendary home completed in Beverly Hills in 1933 for auto titan E.L. Cord.

Caruso explains that Williams’ granddaughter is a friend and shared Williams’ hand-drawn plans for the Southern Colonial-style Cord estate, which Caruso framed and mounted discreetly near the foyer.

The residential sensibility prevails throughout the hotel designed by a team led by architect Dave Williams (no relation to Paul Williams), Caruso’s executive vice president of architecture. From the front door, visitors can see straight through what looks like a casually elegant living room and veranda, past a wide lawn and finally to the ocean.

Most of the 16-acre site — almost as big as the Grove but with a feel much larger since little acreage is taken up by parking — is landscaped open space, which Caruso hopes will help put guests in vacation mode. “It’s to lower everyone’s blood pressure,” he said.

In addition to the Manor House, which includes a spa, there are bungalow-like guest room buildings spread along meandering paths. There are two swimming pools and seven eateries, including a poolside shop that serves hamburgers and local ice cream.

He declines to talk about how much the Miramar cost, but Bacara reportedly cost $222 million to build in 2000.

Pricey design flourishes and materials can be seen in all directions at the Miramar including a Brazilian walnut deck at the seaside bar, hand-painted wallpaper and custom-designed Baccarat crystal chandeliers in the ballroom.

Original artworks abound, including a 1937 Norman Rockwell painting called “Scout of Many Trails” in an event space called the Study and a whimsical Fernando Botero painting titled “Two Drunks” in the Manor Bar.

The sundry shop is a Goop store, founder Gwyneth Paltrow’s first outlet in a hotel.

Caruso builds in a way many other developers would consider extravagant because he can. “I don’t have investors,” he said. “I get the freedom to make decisions I think are best.”

But Caruso is ever watchful of his bottom line.

The 161-room resort already has 25 weddings booked, and he has other ideas for programming that Caruso has honed in his retail centers, along with advertising sponsorships and promotions such as “date night” and “Mommy and me” events.

He pictures people wandering up to the hotel bar after a barbecue “burger bash on the beach” and smiles as he contemplates the promise held by the resort’s two bocce courts — a bowling game that has become hip but is ancient and hints at Caruso’s Italian heritage.

“I bet the bocce ball league will bring in $1 million a year alone,” he said.

And Christmas, sometimes a slow period for seaside resorts, will be celebrated fancifully with decorations including trees for each room that guests can decorate themselves with provided ornaments or let the hotel staff do the job.

“When you allow people to have fun, you make money,” he said. “They become loyal, and they come back.”

Donald Wise, a hotel investment banker at Turnbull Capital Group, estimates that it will take five years to get the Miramar financially stabilized, but Caruso is in position to make it to that point.

Caruso “is obviously very well capitalized, unlike a lot of developers who have to put things together with mirrors.”

Indeed, the Americana at Brand opened in 2008 amid the financial crisis, but Caruso weathered that storm.

The Miramar is one of only a handful of hotels in Southern California that is directly on the beach, which gives it a competitive advantage, said Wise, who was not involved in its sale or development.

Rosewood, which operates luxury properties across the U.S. and some two dozen countries, could help deliver the top-level five-star and five-diamond industry ratings Caruso seeks, Wise said. If that happens, the Miramar would probably be the only five-star hotel in the world with an active railroad running through it.

Ten freight trains and two passenger trains roll through each day on tracks that cleave the edge of the property between the main Manor House complex and the waterfront suites, bar and Caruso’s restaurant.

To diminish its impact, Caruso raised the level of the hotel grounds. “The train loomed over you before,” he said. “We put a cool bar by it, and now it’s part of the experience” of being at the Miramar. The nearby beach guest rooms also are on base isolators to contain vibrations from the trains.

For many years guests arrived at Miramar by train, starting in the 19th century when the Miramar became a favored destination of the well-to-do including snowbirds from the East who would spend winter there.

The inn’s history dates to the 1880s, when landowners Josiah and Emmeline Doulton turned part of their farm into a hotel, said Michael Redmon, director of research at the Santa Barbara Historical Museum.

The Doultons soon named it Miramar, or “Behold, the sea” in Spanish. By 1902, The Times was reporting on arrivals of the well-to-do, such as the widow of a railroad magnate who arrived from Boston for the season with her maid and chauffeur in tow.

The Miramar is remembered perhaps best among the living as an unassuming seaside getaway where families with kids and dogs could afford to spend a relaxing weekend nestled between the peaceful Pacific and dull roar of Highway 101.

The Doulton family sold the Miramar in 1939 to Paul Gawzner, who revamped the property and added a swimming pool. By the late 20th century, the resort was known to some for its air of “Catskill kitsch” — with its shuffleboard courts and waiters who once tooled around the grounds on bicycles, trays from the kitchen mounted on their baskets.

Gawzner sold the Miramar in 1998 to night club and hotel impresario Ian Schrager, who closed the inn in 2000 to make renovations. Work stopped as the economy soured and the partly demolished hotel became a local eyesore.

Toy manufacturer Ty Warner, who became a billionaire through his Beanie Baby plush toy line, bought the Miramar in 2005 with plans to renovate the property but ended up selling it to Caruso less than two years later.

Caruso razed almost the entire site, saving only the original owner’s wooden residence, which stands just off the hotel grounds. It’s being restored, but no use for it has been planned yet.

For now, Caruso is just enjoying his accomplishment of getting the Miramar up and running — a satisfaction he is sharing with his family.

The Carusos, including Rick’s wife of 31 years, Tina, have their own residence in the Manor House.

Gigi Caruso, Rick’s youngest child at 18, said she and her siblings are taking particular pleasure in the family references her father slipped into the development, including quotes from their favorite literary figures painstakingly inlaid into stones on the veranda.

“It’s so fun seeing all our personal family references around the property,” she said. “It means so much to us that he involved us in the process.”

The developer’s next planned venture is residential. He built an ultra-deluxe 87-unit apartment building on the eastern edge of Beverly Hills in 2012 and now plans to erect a bigger one nearby on the site of his first development on La Cienega Boulevard that housed a Loehmann’s department store.

But that wasn’t really on his mind as he watched some of his first patrons enjoy the food at Malibu Farm. Instead, he’s just settling in at the Miramar.

“It was years of work,” he said.
