The Promenade at Coconut Creek in Broward County, Fla., a live-work-play shopping and lifestyle center, is being expanded by 105,000 sf. When phase II of the 335,000-sf project is complete, the facility will house 75 retailers, restaurants, and related services, making it one of the largest mixed-use projects in northern Broward County. Constructed by Stanbery Development, the facility is LEED pre-certified, making it one of the first major developments in the southeastern U.S. to earn a LEED rating. All phases of the project should be completed by fall 2009.
