Developers’ Plans Could Include Apartment Complex With Hospital On Site In Palm Beach County

Crossroads 6106 LLC project - northeast corner of Interstate 95 and Indiantown Road 760x320

FLF Holdings and Crossroads Development Partners asked Jupiter officials to rezone part of their property for apartments, while Baptist Health South Florida could build a hospital on the remaining land.

The Town Council was scheduled to discuss the proposal from Crossroads 6106 LLC, a joint venture between local developer FLF Holdings and Crossroads Development Partners in Schaumburg, Illinois, on Sept. 19. While a vote for approval is not on the table at the meeting, the Town Council was expected to consider whether staff should continue working with the developers on the proposal for the 58.5-acre site at the northeast corner of Interstate 95 and Indiantown Road.

In 2018, the developer utilized a Bert Harris Property rights claim against the city – a method used when development applications were previously denied – to obtain approval for a hotel, restaurant, medical/research office, and daycare. No development took place at the time.

Now, Crossroads 6106 filed an application that seeks to amend the development agreement with the town to allow 520 apartments, with 20% of that workforce housing. The project would be called Santé Circle after the French word for health.

Josh Simon, managing partner of FLF Holdings, said his application doesn’t utilize the Live Local Act, so he needs a Town Council vote in favor of the project.

Baptist Health Buys 18 Acres In Miami-Dade

kendall-town-center_760xx320

Baptist Health South Florida is set for an expansion after purchasing land next to West Kendall Baptist Hospital for $17.92 million.

The deal is part of the 70-acre West Kendall Town Center project, which was recently approved by Miami-Dade County officials.

Miami-based KTC SW 88 St LLC sold 17.9 acres on the east side of the hospital to the nonprofit health care provider. NAI Miami brokered the deal, as several of its executives are also co-owners of the seller.

The county recently approved the “health and wellness district” of Kendall Town Center that Baptist Health acquired for 215,000 square feet of medical offices, 70,000 square feet of education and 125 hotel rooms.

Located at the southwest corner of Southwest 88th Street and Southwest 158th Avenue, West Kendall Town Center was originally approved for a mostly commercial project, but the owners recently changed the plan to make it a mixed-use project. In addition to the health and wellness district, the site is approved for 576 apartments in the residential area, 491,000 square feet of commercial and another 224 apartments in the town center area, and eight outparcels along Kendall Drive.

Baptist Health Beats Out Rival Bid For Sunrise Site Of Its First Hospital In Broward

baptist-sunrise

Baptist Health South Florida is set to buy city-owned land in Sunrise for its first hospital in Broward County, beating out a rival bid for the 25-acre site.

The Sunrise City Commission voted 4-1 Tuesday to sell the hospital development site at 12401 West Oakland Park Boulevard to Coral Gables-based nonprofit Baptist Health for $14.3 million.

The price matched a joint bid for the site by two tax-supported hospital systems, Memorial Healthcare and Broward Health.

City commissioners who favored the bid by Baptist Health cited unkept promises by Broward Health to build a hospital in Sunrise at Pine Island Road and Oakland Park Boulevard, where the hospital system acquired property 20 years ago.

City commissioners in August declared the 25-acre site a “surplus” municipal property. It is on the northwest corner of Oakland Park Boulevard and the Sawgrass Expressway.

Baptist Health’s West Kendall Baptist Hospital Reaches New Phase Of Construction For Clinical Expansion Project

Baptist Health South Florida has reached a new phase of construction for the 125,000-square-foot clinical expansion project at West Kendall Baptist Hospital.

Exactly ten years since the facility’s official debut and one year since the groundbreaking of the project, the “topping out” marks the completion of the building’s exterior structure and ultimately represents the rapid growth of the West Kendall community.

Scheduled to be complete in January 2023, the highly anticipated new four-story tower houses 35 additional emergency department treatment rooms to meet the growing needs of the community. The third and fourth floors of the new building will be completely dedicated to supporting inpatient services, with 70 new inpatient rooms. Amongst other add-ons, there will also be additional space for diagnostic imaging, physical therapy, patient observation and more.

“Since opening our doors in 2011, we at West Kendall Baptist Hospital have been dedicated to improving the lives of the community by offering superior health and wellness services,” said Lourdes Boue, Chief Executive Officer of West Kendall Baptist Hospital. “After an especially trying year, this construction milestone couldn’t come at a better time. It is a true nod to our storied past and bright future.”

When the campus first opened, West Kendall Baptist Hospital was recognized as Miami-Dade County’s first non-replacement hospital in over 35 years, with the goal of helping residents live healthier, safer and more fulfilling lives. To propel the community into this next phase and signify the hospital’s future, West Kendall Baptist Hospital invited the children of the Early Learning Center to leave their mark on the foundation of the building by adding their handprints to its final beam.

Upon completion, the design of the new tower will mirror the Mediterranean style aesthetic of the existing hospital and feature the same eco-friendly features that earned the hospital LEED Gold Certification for Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design – a green building certification program used worldwide.
