On my walkabout last weekend I heard some very interesting scuttlebutt about the property currently covered by netting above that will sit next to the future Evolve headquarters.

Such is the rush that will be felt by passengers at Fly Lounge a streamlined, destination lounge for the ever-mobile elite.
Transporting guests to new realms with non-stop service nightly, Fly Lounge embodies all the elements of the proverbial private escape.
As a late night connection, Fly Lounge will offer a 5 day a week flight plan to accommodate the most discretionary of tastes. From the early night rendezvous to the Red Eye shuttle, Fly Lounge will offer a roundtrip ticket to paradise.
I have also heard from other folks that there will be some sort of dance/dj component to this space. Anyone else hearing these rumors?
