Another mixed-use development has been approved for Boca Raton’s Park at Broken Sound, a 700-acre area undergoing significant transformation from its origins as a business park. On Tuesday, the Boca Raton City Council gave unanimous approval to two ordinances and three resolutions that will enable Meyers Accesso, based in Aventura, to proceed with plans for a 290,000-square-foot apartment project next to the Atrium at Broken Sound office building at 6111 Northwest Broken Sound Parkway.

The project will include 222 apartments, approximately 2,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space, a rooftop pool deck, 23 affordable housing units, and 12 workforce apartments. Developers are also required to build a 2,000-square-foot dog park on site. “The developers will also be required to build a 2,000-square-foot dog park on site,” said Jim Bell, project manager for Boca Raton.

Meyers Accesso is a joint venture between Meyers Group and Accesso Partners. An affiliate of the partnership acquired the adjacent 10.5-acre office property next to an 18-hole golf course for $25 million in 2024.

The new development is one of several projects moving forward within or near Park at Broken Sound. The largest among them is the redevelopment of Office Depot’s headquarters by BH Group, PEBB Enterprises and the Real Group. That plan calls for renovation of a 405,000-square-foot office complex, construction of a 37,000-square-foot Equinox gym, and addition of a 500-unit apartment building.

Other upcoming projects in the area include a mixed-income complex with 289 apartments at 900 Northwest Broken Sound Parkway approved by city council in July. In March, Oak Lane Partners’ Bhavin Shah proposed building a Live Local Act project with 243 units near its headquarters at Park at Broken Sound.

In September, Tishman Speyer purchased the Bell at Broken Sound Apartments for $125 million.

Meanwhile, Beztak and Wexford Real Estate withdrew their request to add another 21 apartments and fitness center to their previously approved Bocora apartment project in Amtec Center business park but still intend to designate an Xceed Preparatory Academy tutoring center as a private school. That designation was unanimously approved by city council this week.
