‘Mansion in the sky' Miami penthouse in Pritzker-winning architect Zaha Hadid's final building asks $24M
A Miami penthouse in One Thousand Museum, the final architectural masterpiece of the late Zaha Hadid, has listed for $24 million, The Post has learned.
The 51st-floor residence, owned by Loren Ridinger, co-founder and CEO of Market America — a marketing company founded in 1992 — is the largest residence currently available in the building. It out-sizes units inside owned by billionaire Ken Griffin, singer Marc Anthony and soccer legend David Beckham.
The full-floor penthouse, represented by Seth Semilof of HL Real Estate Group, spans 10,338 square feet with a 1,200-square-foot patio, offering panoramic views of Biscayne Bay, the Miami skyline and the Atlantic Ocean.

Hadid, the Iraqi-born British architect who became the first woman to win the prestigious Pritzker Architecture Prize in 2004, left an indelible mark with her daring deconstructivist designs, seen in landmarks like the Heydar Aliyev Centre in Baku, Azerbaijan — and Rome's MAXXI museum.

One Thousand Museum, her last project before her sudden death in 2016, redefined Miami's skyline with its sculptural exoskeleton and futuristic aesthetic.

'What's unique about it is bringing someone like Zaha Hadid to Miami,' Semilof said. 'You really never have had that type of an architect … This building started construction pre-COVID — before the time of [big-time] architects coming down to Miami — that to me is kind of what makes this building very special.'

The building's exclusivity draws high-profile residents, with only 84 units across its 61 floors.
'It's a little bit different in terms of product,' Semilof said.
This rarity, combined with Hadid's visionary design, has made the tower a magnet for the elite seeking discretion and luxury.

The penthouse's $24 million price tag positions it as the priciest unit currently listed in the building, edging out another at $23.75 million.
Semilof highlighted its scale: 'Most of the units in the building are half floors, two per floor, and then from floors 50 to 60, they're full-floor units. Our unit is the biggest unit. It's on the 51st floor, it's 10,300 square feet and then [Ken Griffin's], which is on the 58th floor, is about 9,000 square feet.'
He described it as 'basically a mansion in the sky,' adding, 'It's Zaha Hadid's last building and it's really the only 10,000-square-foot apartment you could get in all of downtown that's built within the last 10 years.'

I'm a superyacht nanny — I get paid to travel the world in luxury while watching rich people's kids
BB Smalls wasn't looking for a free ride when she signed on as a nanny to Hollywood honchos, globally-renowned rock stars and bigwig billionaires. But free first-class flights to Bora Bora, $100,000 rooms at the St. Regis Resort and bougie boating excursions along the Amalfi Coast are exactly what she got — not to mention routine shopping sprees at Gucci, Chanel and Louis Vuitton — while on the job. 'I've been everywhere: Maui, Tahiti, London, Italy, Scotland, you name it,' Smalls, 44, from Los Angeles, tells The Post. Advertisement Nondisclosure agreements bar her from spilling the secrets and specifics of her eccentric ex-bosses. But Smalls, now a married stay-at-home mom living in Texas, says, 'Nannying for the right people means getting paid to travel.' She's in the 40% of childcare providers who are 'superyacht nannies,' and regularly globetrot, by sky, land or sea, to luxe locations with their employers, per data via the International Nanny Association. 9 BB Smalls has been living a grand life as a superyacht nanny to the rich and famous. Courtesy BB Smalls Advertisement It's a post that grants kiddo pros the opportunity to see the sights, as well as how the top 1% travels, for free. The super lucky even get to nanny on superyachts, vacation vessels spanning over 80 feet in length, which are roughly twice the length of an average yacht. The behemoths come fully staffed with a captain and crew. Chartering the megacruisers can cost between $100,000 and more than $1 million per week, depending on size, time of year and onboard amenities, such as helipads, movie theatres, Jacuzzis and gyms. But most A-list showboats like Mark Zuckerberg, who paid a reported $300 million for his 387-foot superyacht, and Jeff Bezos, with his 417-foot, $500 million ship, rarely sweat over dollars and cents. Advertisement 9 Ella Peters has been a superyacht nanny for a decade. Ella Peters/ Ella Peters, a superyacht nanny of nearly 10 years, said that during peak yachting season, June through August, she's often booked for back-to-back trips with a revolving door of well-to-do employers from NYC, Europe and the Middle East. 'I do love the job,' the 28-year-old owner of UK's tells The Post. 'But it is exhausting.' She charges around $500 per day for her on-ship sitter services. However, her fees, not including the standard 'four-figure tip' she typically receives, can increase according to the number of children aboard and their ages. Advertisement 9 Peters' job has taken her all over the world. Ella Peters/ Like Smalls, Peters works for internationally known hotshots whose names must remain hush-hush due to NDAs. Her upper-crust clients routinely rent nearly 300-foot-long tubs, costing over $1 million per week, for family cruises through the Mediterranean. The preferred path they sail is famously known as 'The Milk Run.' On it, tycoons tour the south of France, Corsica and Sardinia, Italy — home to Costa Smeralda, nicknamed 'billionaires' playground,' owing to its turquoise waters, fine-sand shores and chichi beach clubs. 'It has everything my ultrahigh net worth families want,' said Peters. 'My favorite 'pinch me' moment was driving myself and my 11-year-old charge on a jet ski through the famous Faraglioni rocks in Capri, Italy,' the Londoner said. 9 Peters said her clients are 'ultrahigh net worth families,' but NDAs forbid her from disclosing whom she's worked for. Ella Peters/ Still, Smalls, who recently left VIP nannying for content creation, says working for the uberwealthy wasn't always smooth sailing. 'One Bel Air family wanted me to nanny for them on a yacht for an entire month, but I wasn't allowed to be seen,' she recalled of the odd demand. 'If either parent walked into a room that I was in, I'd have to hide and hold in place until they left the room.' Advertisement 'During my downtime on the yacht, I'd have to stay out of sight and be banished to my room.' But Peters has only had stellar experiences — and very little downtime — while minding mini moguls on the waves. 'I get up before the children and try to drink some coffee in peace,' Peters says. 'When you're onboard, you have to put in effort to get a few moments to yourself. After that, everything is go, go, go.' But her skills are worth every penny. Advertisement 9 Peters does everything from feeding the kids breakfasts aboard the ship to accompanying them on jet ski rides. Ella Peters/ Peters comes fully equipped with pediatric first-aid training, police background clearance, nanny insurance, water safety training and a personal watercraft license — documents that permit her to operate jet skis and paddle boats. And while their moneyed mommies and daddies play, she entertains the tots all day. 'After my coffee, I greet the kids in the morning as they wake up, then feed them a small breakfast before we do arts and crafts,' Peters began. Advertisement Depending on the size of the superyacht, she either gets her own room, bunks with the babies or shares living quarters with a crew member. 9 Peters said the best route to sail is famously known as 'The Milk Run,' which goes through the south of France, Corsica and Sardinia, Italy — home to Costa Smeralda, nicknamed 'billionaires' playground.' Ella Peters/ 'When the parents wake up, the kids have a proper family breakfast with them, then we do a few morning watersports before they do a family-style buffet lunch,' continued the millennial. 'In the afternoon, when the sun is really hot, we do more arts and crafts before doing more water activities or stopping off at a local village for ice cream and exploring.' 'At night, I feed the kids dinner while the parents prepare for their evening plans,' she said of the superpacked schedule. 'Then it's time for bed.' Advertisement 9 Peters said she is booked solid through yacht season to watch kiddos. Ella Peters/ Sarah Leonard, 25, a superyacht nanny from Maryland, however, tells The Post her days on the water are more like walks in the park. 'I spend about four hours a day working with the kids, the rest of the time I'm able to chill on the yacht or maybe explore,' said the Gen Z. She's spent the past two summers as a superyacht nanny for a South African influencer family with a bent towards boating around Turkey, Greece and Italy. 'I was working as a scuba diver in Puerto Rico back in 2023, and I saw a Facebook listing for a yacht nannying position and applied,' said Leonard, a certified rescue diver and CPR expert and former lifeguard. 9 Sarah Leonard, 25, has been a superyacht nanny for the past two summers. @sarahtravelingnanny/TikTok For her, the childcare gig was an unpaid position that came with the perks of enjoying an all-inclusive, saltwater excursion. And the family, comprising a mom, dad and two boys under age 8, treated Leonard like family, giving her a private bedroom and bathroom, including her in family meals and 'gifting' her with a special token of their appreciation at the end of the two-month journey. 9 Leonard wasn't paid for her gig, but got to join a family for two months on their yacht. @sarahtravelingnanny/TikTok But Leonard, who'll be touring Italy and France with new brood this summer, says traveling with little ones is the true gift that keeps on giving. 'I get to experience the world through the eyes of these little kids,' gushed the superyacht nanny. 'It's magical.'

Which Bay Area restaurants landed on the World's 50 Best list?
Two of the Bay Area's most decorated restaurants, SingleThread and Atelier Crenn, have landed on a global stage once again. Influential restaurant ranking group World's 50 Best Restaurants included the fine dining institutions on its extended list of restaurants, from 51 through 100, which includes 37 cities around the globe. Atelier Crenn in San Francisco placed at No. 96, while Healdsburg's SingleThread was named No. 80. 'We are grateful when our name appears, a sign that our labor is seen,our flame recognized,' Atelier Crenn executive chef and owner Dominique Crenn wrote on Instagram. The restaurant has appeared on the main 50 best list, at no. 48, as recently as 2021, but fell off the list completely last year; SingleThread, meanwhile, fell from its place last year at No. 37. Past Bay Area honorees on World's Best 50 Restaurants' main list include Saison, Benu and the French Laundry, which has been inducted into the organization's 'Best of the Best' hall of fame after being placed in the No. 1 spot. The World's 50 Best Restaurants, published by the British media company William Reed, put out its first rankings of top fine dining destinations in 2002. The group has been criticized in the past for a lack of diversity in its organization, not requiring members to pay for their meals, as well as uneven gender and geographic representation in past lists. The main list, which will rank restaurants from 50 to No. 1, will be revealed in Turin, Italy on June 19.

Walmart customers rage over this new security feature: ‘Waste of money'
Walmart is rolling out a new security initiative — and shoppers are not happy with the corporation's latest attempts at curtailing crime in store parking lots across the country. A customer in Bentonville, Ark., posted a TikTok video that captured the robot security guard patrolling the store's parking lot. Advertisement The now-viral video featured the TikTokker, Goldpinemusic, following the robot around the parking lot, asking it questions like 'What's your name?' Nearby shoppers appeared equally interested in the corporation's newest security guards, as evidenced by one woman in the video who was seen kneeling on the pavement to try to take a close-up photo of the roaming robot. The bizarre scene depicted in the video quickly amassed online attention and reeled in thousands of views and comments. Advertisement Amid the tariffs, rising prices, and supply chain disruptions affecting businesses across the country, Walmart has recently been under criticism by customers. 'We will do our best to keep our prices as low as possible. But given the magnitude of the tariffs, even at the reduced levels announced this week, we aren't able to absorb all the pressure given the reality of narrow retail margins,' warned Walmart CEO Doug McMillon on a mid-May earnings call. This latest robot-related expansion, as seen in the TikTok video, only sparked further outrage. 'That's why the prices are gonna be going up,' said one viewer. 'Pricing fluctuations are a normal course of business and are influenced by a variety of factors,' a Walmart spokesperson previously told The Post. Advertisement 3 TikTok user goldpinemusic spotted a new robot security guard in a Walmart parking lot. goldpinemusic/Tiktok Many additional commenters also expressed disappointment in the corporation. 'Walmart will do anything and everything to not pay somebody,' posted one user. 'We should have kept our local grocery stores in business,' another disgruntled commenter wrote. Advertisement 3 Walmart shoppers also worry that new robot security guards will record license plate numbers and other personal information. Xinhua/Shutterstock Walmart originally began testing the efficacy of robots in select stores in 2015, when they were first used to stock and label shelves. In the years since, the company has continued to utilize new and improving technology in robotics, AI, and surveillance in an effort to modernize stores, keep up with competitors, and offer guests a positive shopping experience. In an effort to prevent and more efficiently report parking lot crime, Walmart began installing lot cops — tall solar-powered security towers manufactured by Live View Technologies — in parking lots in select states. 3 Lot cops aid in increased parking lot surveillance. Getty Images Though they're stationed in Walmart parking lots, the bulk of the surveillance footage captured by these Walmart lot cops goes to local law enforcement in the event of a criminal incident. 'The information is actionable, whether it's getting a license plate off a vehicle. All of that functionality is in the platform,' Live View Technologies Director of Business Development David Studdert told WHNT19. 'Mostly I see litter, [people] throw trash all over the place. I have some friends who experienced car break-ins, too,' Hawaii resident Makakilo Richard Suzuki told KHON2 regarding parking lot crime. Advertisement Much like lot cops, which solely serve as surveillance and crime deterrents, the Walmart robot security guards are intended to increase visibility in parking lots, and as many commenters suspect, are operated remotely by loss prevention staff working inside stores. While many users expressed displeasure at this costly surveillance expansion, others extended a degree of understanding toward Walmart. 'Definitely not the first of its kind,' one commenter wrote. 'The hospital my wife works at has had robots like this for the past five years.' For now, the Walmart robot security guards are only stationed at select locations across the country, but as commentators on the viral TikTok noted, perhaps this move is simply another potential recession indicator.
