A PALM BEACH STATE OF MIND

Up in the Air

In honor of the US Open, which began this week, PALMER looks back at art photographer Pelle Cass's photo essay for Vol. 3.

A quick rundown of topics that have everyone talking.

• The Boca Raton couple who ran West Palm Beach’s Wells Real Estate Investment LLC—accused of bilking over 600 families out of $56 million in a modern day Ponzi scheme—seem to have taken a page from the Madoff playbook.

• Record air travel in New York and other major markets over the summer have Palm Beach officials concerned about the congestion impact of greater than usual crowds this season.

• In the wake of Vanderbilt University’s expected satellite in West Palm Beach, there is talk of two New York secondary schools looking to open as well.

• News of Nobu opening in Palm Beach is adding to a restaurant frenzy that is quickly turning the area into a culinary mecca.
