BOCA RATON—
— Tower One Fifty Five will rise nine stories in Boca Raton‘s downtown as the mammoth condominium development received its final city approval Tuesday — with a unanimous vote.
This time, the City Council — meeting as the Community Redevelopment Agency — gave the proposed 209-unit building its seal of approval, but not before members debated what direction the downtown redevelopment needs to take.
Architect Derek Vander Ploeg, who is working with Compson Associates on the project, said Tower One Fifty Five should break ground sometime in the fall to be completed by the end of 2015.
“It’s always good to get a unanimous vote,” he said, noting that the project has encountered no opposition at any of the layers of city review.
