It took four years and more than $770M for billionaire and hedge fund CEO Ken Griffin to reach the finish line in assembling a full-block site for his company’s future headquarters. The task is finally complete after Miami commissioners last week approved the Citadel founder’s plan to buy the waterfront site of a 121-year-old, historically protected cottage, making way for one of the largest office developments the city has ever seen, part of a $2.5B project also set to include an apartment building and possibly a hotel.
