A Ritardando for Tempo Miami?

Where: 1100 Biscayne Boulevard [map], Miami, FL, United States, 33137

Looks like RockResorts' newest property, Tempo Miami, is majorly delayed. And, um, for those not familiar with our Friday afternoon strokes of genius throwing back to our high school band geek days, we shall clarify: a ritardando means, like, a gradual slowdown of tempo in music. Get it? Tempo? Slowdown? Delay?

The property was originally scheduled to open on April 15th (and back in September, the confident folks at RockResorts were encouraging people to book their stays for April) — but the new opening date is listed on the website as "September 2009" and rezzies are being taken for the whole month.

Rooms are going to be starting around $300 when the 56-guestroom property finally does open, and guests dishing out those kinds of dollas will be able to enjoy the 8,000-square-foot spa, lagoon-style sunset swimming pool, and its killer location across from Miami's new performing arts center and adjacent to the Miami Heat's sports arena.
