News like this from Alexandra Seltzer is a "shot-in-the-arm" for Lantana and the cities nearby too. This proposed community of residents "geared toward young families" aren't going to shelter in place. They're going to explore Lake Worth and spend money here too. Below are two excerpts from the article:
LANTANA — Fifteen three-story apartment buildings will be developed as the first phase of the residential section of the Water Tower Commons project. They’ll be behind the row of 11 retail spots including a fitness center and grocery store, according to plans submitted to the town.
[and. . .]
The apartments are only a small piece of the overall residential area, which can have up to 1,091 units. [emphasis added] The apartment section will be geared toward young families. It includes a pool, a clubhouse and a green space on the left of the property in the middle of a circle of five buildings. A park near the center of the apartments will also have a connecting road to the commercial area. There will be a park around the 127-foot tall water tower and an entryway there, also.
