More high-end luxury housing on the way for Boca West. The project was delayed with the onset of the Great Recession, but now the developer is ready to plow ahead. Click title for link.
Siemens, 79, has worked in South Florida since 1964 and has built more than 15,000 homes across the state. His local projects include Polo Club, Boca Raton, and Century Village of Pembroke Pines. He also built West Boca Medical Center, Delray Medical Center and a handful of shopping centers.
South Florida housing analyst Lewis Goodkin, who served as a consultant to Arvida Corp. when it was developing Boca West in the early 1970s, said it's hard to beat ocean views. But in this case, he said, Akoya's inland location isn't a drawback.
"The total lifestyle and amenity package at Boca West is absolutely exceptional," Goodkin said. "I think it has the ingredients to support a real high-end luxury condo."
