Watch - new miami beach square by big architects
Miami Beach Square involves bringing to life one of Miami Beach's most underutilized public sites with a fully-revamped convention center capable of luring major events from around the world, inviting green spaces, and cultural venues. Miami Beach Square serves as the pivoting point for all activities around it. The main streets are connected across the square for pedestrians and bicycles -- and vehicular access. The Soundscape is connected across the square to The Botanical Gardens and the Holocaust memorial. Pennsylvania Avenue is connected across the square to Convention Center Boulevard. The shortcuts and connections define an urban block structure of building and landscapes. Rather than a great green empty void, the public realm is programmed by patches of landscapes and buildings connected by plazas and paths. Some of the patches of park are peeled open to accommodate for small-scale community owned businesses: a shake shack, a bike rental, a small gallery.

Watch - eiffel tower shut down by strike
The Eiffel Tower, Paris' most iconic landmark, has been closed for two consecutive days by a strike over working conditions. There was been talk of the attraction re-opening on the afternoon of Wednesday June 26, but in the morning tourists were still being turned away. American tourist Jamie Mc Nulty complained: "It's disappointing, coming here and spending this much money to come here, and then you can't come to the one landmark that people probably want to see most." Workers at the tower have long-running grievances over how repairs have been managed. The length of time taken to renovate one of the lifts, five years and counting, is a particular bone of contention. A CGT union representative told journalists: "We're on strike because we've been complaining about the handling of maintenance work for several years. It's had a severe effect on how we cope with visitors and also on our working conditions."
