Cabarete, located on the Atlantic Coast of the Dominican Republic, has been known for years as one of the top 3 windsurfing spots in the world. An international development team has purchased a mile of pristine beach called The Miracle Mile for construction of 400 condominiums, a shopping village, and a 300 key full service Hyatt Regency Resort. The resort will feature 260 rooms and suites and 40 timeshare condominiums as well as a 15,000sf banquet/conference center with full corporate services, a Hyatt Signature Spa, Camp Hyatt, and a full complement of sports facilities and restaurant venues. As the only full service facility in Cabarete, the Hyatt is expected to be the home of major sporting events, corporate meetings, weddings and family vacations for years to come.

WQB Architecture worked at Wychoff Heights Hospital for over 14 years. During this time, the hospital was composed of over 12 buildings which dated back from 1898 to 1965 and covered several city blocks. WQB prepared a Master Plan for redevelopment of the facilities and how they could be reorganized into a new conjunctive facility. Over the years WQB implemented the Master Plan though a series of renovations which included new operating theatres, intensive care suites, dental surgery and clinic, ambulatory care facility, laboratories, outpatient clinics, endoscopy suites, pediatric care, nurses housing and a variety of other facilities. The work was culminated by a $250m new addition which was designed and built in coordination with Perkins & Will Architects.
