Brothers Jimmy and Kenny Tate are partnering with Sergio Rok and the Pérez family’s Related Group on Bahia Mar. Last week, Fort Lauderdale commissioners approved the $1 billion Bahia Mar at 801 Seabreeze Boulevard.

The 35,000-square-foot Marina Village portion will have eight food and beverage kiosks when it’s completed this year.

While the city owns the 40-acre site, an affiliate of the brothers last year scored a 100-year lease for the property.
