With our passion for all things luxury as radiant as ever, it was time to give ourselves a facelift. after 10 years of celebrating our city's best and brightest, we can now look around and see all the great changes boston has experienced. From new residential buildings like Millennium tower, with new retail shops and restaurants, to an entirely new neighborhood in the seaport district (it was merely a parking lot when we first started), the city is growing—and so are we. We are thrilled to unveil a fresh and updated look for 2016. inside this issue, you'll find we're aiming to respond to the way people are consum- ing information and content these days: they want it clear, compelling, and quick. to that end, we present a crisp new format, in a gorgeous, more modern look, with an emphasis on beautiful visuals and to-the-point editorials designed to keep you up to date on the people you need to know and the places you need to go. in other words, count on us to deliver the latest and greatest that boston has to offer. after all, everyone needs a little touch-up every now and again.
