Palmetto Bay will consider approving the second mixed-use project in its new Downtown Urban Village district, as developer Roberto Suris has proposed an apartment/retail building called Soleste Bay Village.
In 2015, the municipality rezoned an area for greater density and mixed uses to encourage more development. The first project approved under that zoning was the Altlantico at Palmetto apartments and retail, by Florida Crystals subsidiary FCI Residential.
On March 20, the village council will hold a zoning hearing to consider plans for Soleste Bay Village at 18301 S. Dixie Highway (U.S. 1). The 1.98-acre site is currently occupied by a church built in 1959, but it’s under contract to Estate Investment Group LLC, owned by Suris.
Suris’ company has previously developed numerous apartment complexes under the Soleste name in the West Miami area.
