The Breakers Opens A Real Estate Office

One of the most iconic Florida hotels, The Breakers in Palm Beach, is finding its own ways of dealing with the economic slump. Usually this time of year is boom time for the hotel but they have trimmed the staff by about 10% or 200 or so people. The resort has also taken the unique move of creating three new businesses, the Phillips Point Club on the top floor of the Phillips Point office building in West Palm Beach, Mix, a women's accessories store at The Breakers and The Breakers Palm Beach Realty, a brokerage catering to the luxury real estate market. Real estate in this tough economy? Spokeswoman Ann Margo Peart tells the Palm Beach Post that the business, which is located on the hotel grounds, will cater to guests who have made inquiries about high-end real estate in Palm Beach.

The venerable design house rolled out this Steinway, among other 50th anniversary treats like a Lillified Jeep Wrangler, at a special preview at The Breakers hotel in Palm Beach back in June. In November, the pieces will finally hit market.
