Currently, the resort includes 365 attached and single-family homes, the 93-room Boardwalk Inn, two 18-hole golf courses, a large tennis center and 6,700-sf of retail and restaurant space, as well as 2.5 miles of beachfront. The 8-acre expansion, called the Village, will add 254 condominium units and 20,000 sf of retail in several mid-rise residential-over-retail buildings with underground parking. In addition, adjacent to the Village, will be a 10,000-sf conference center.
The conference center is already under construction and will be complete next fall. The first phase of the Village--115 condominium units and about half the retail—will be complete in summer 2007. The remainder of the development will be complete one year later. A company source tells GlobeSt.com that the dollar figure attached to the project is the total development cost as opposed to its value upon completion.
