New Eight-Story Office Center Breaks Ground on PGA Boulevard
Palm Beach Gardens, FL · September 3, 2026
Flavor South Florida kicked off its dining month this week, meaning your Thursday dinner debate is officially solved. That light morning mist should burn off just in time for lunch.
The Lead
Cranes are moving onto PGA Boulevard as developer Gatsby Florida secures $118.6 million in construction financing for The Palm, Palm Beach Gardens. The eight-story development will bring roughly 200,000 square feet of Class A commercial space to the corridor, capped by ground-floor retail, 25,000-square-foot floorplates, and an open-air rooftop terrace. For residents, the groundbreaking signals continued corporate investment in north county’s primary commercial spine, answering persistent regional demand for premier office space that followed the full leasing of nearby DiVosta Towers. General contractor Hedrick Brothers Construction has begun initial site prep, making foundation rigs and framing cranes a routine sight along the boulevard through projected completion in 2028.

Spotlight & Story
- Interstate 95 at PGA Boulevard
- Until December 1987, this interchange was Florida’s northern dead-end for I-95, dumping northbound travelers directly into cattle pastures until the final 44-mile missing link to Fort Pierce opened, quietly tying our local crossroads to Maine.
