Apartment complex proposed for Briger site, near Scripps

This is the same tract of land also known as the "Briger Forest". Remember this story from when our local EF! peeps thought it would be a good idea to spike the trees here. What is described in the article is the materialization of part of the total plan for the acreage. Click title for link.

An apartment and townhouse proposal has been submitted to city planners for another piece of the 681-acre Briger tract, land designated for growth sparked by the Scripps Research Institute.
A Florida Crystals apartment division has proposed the 10-building, 361-unit complex, called Atlantico at Palm Beach Gardens. The development is just east of I-95, across Donald Ross Road from the future Phase 2 of the biomedical campus, whose employees the developer hopes to attract as tenants, said Caroline Villanueva, South Florida external affairs manager for Florida Crystals.
The 13-acre Atlantico site is just north of a 58-acre site where developer Kolter Group won city council approval in June to build 360 houses and townhomes.
