Jeff Greene, a Palm Beach billionaire, is pursuing approval for a high-end condominium project situated across from the waterfront Currie Park in West Palm Beach. The Planning Board of the city is set to review the application for the 4.5-acre site at 2175 N. Flagler Drive on December 19.
This vacant property, owned by Greene-led entities 6622 Hollywood Boulevard Partner LP and 920 N. Stanley Partners LLC, was previously considered for a condo project in 2019, but development was not pursued at the time. Since then, the city has invested approximately $30 million in the renovation of Currie Park, with the area experiencing a surge in luxury condo development.
Greene’s proposed project, designed by the renowned Swiss firm Herzog & de Meuron, envisions two 32-story towers connected by a parking and amenity podium. The plan includes 152 condominiums with a total of 678,000 square feet of sellable space, 5,100 square feet of commercial space, and 325 parking spaces. The amenities, primarily located on the second floor, will feature a pool, gym, spa, and a dining/party room.
The condominiums, described by Greene as “mansions in the sky,” will vary in size from 2,800 to 10,800 square feet, with many units boasting private pools on their terraces. The configuration includes two to five-bedroom units and penthouses. Greene is collaborating with local architecture firm Spina ORourke + Partners and planner Brian Terry of Insite Studio on this project, which includes a rainwater capture system for onsite irrigation and water features.
Greene, who owns approximately 19 acres in the area, sees this project as potentially the first of several in the vicinity. He is also progressing with the One West Palm project downtown, a mixed-use residential, hotel, and office development expected to be completed in late spring or summer 2024.
