Banyan Tree PUD Phase 2 Over the years, various infill projects have been proposed to take up the vacant space in Banyan Tree Plaza at MacArthur and Northlake Boulevards. In May 2023, City Council approved a new building to be constructed in the north end of the parking lot. Over 10,600 square feet will become the home of restaurant, retail and medical office space with covered outdoor seating and bike racks for patron’s use. Street Address: 3335 Northlake Boulevard
Diamonds Direct Out with the old, in with the new! The end of 2023 saw the demolition of the old BB&T building and drive-through lanes at PGA Boulevard and Minsk Gardens Boulevard. In its place, a bright, shiny 5,871 square foot specialty retail store will be constructed and will become the new home of Diamonds Direct. Visitors will immediately notice a more modern building design, including an aluminum standing seam roof. Expected completion for the Diamonds Direct building is May 2024. Street Address: 2899 PGA Boulevard GET THE DETAILS! To keep up with development around the City, visit our Project Location Map at www.pbgfl.com/ProjectMap. WINTER 2024
