MIAMI-The developer of a recently purchased 969-acre parcel of land near Naples, FL tells GlobeSt.com that his plans for the land include 500-unit townhouse project. Located in Lee County’s Benita Springs the townhouses are expected to begin development at the end of the first quarter of 2003, says Anthony Solomon, VP of Naples-based The Ronto Group, the project’s developer.

The selection of a general contractor for the townhouse project has not yet been finalized, says Solomon.

Specific uses for the planned 120,000 sf of commercial space include convenience shops, retail and office space. This portion of the project is currently being called The Village Center and also will be located in Benita Springs. Plans call for office and residential space to be above or interspersed within The Village Center, Solomon tells GlobeSt.com, adding that the type of residential in this area will be live-work space, or apartments/condos above retail or in separate buildings.
