Under the terms of the transaction, Flagler retianed ownership of the undeveloped land (in addition to holding on to leasing manager responsibilities). It wouldn’t comment on the fate of the land, but GlobeSt.com said it could be an extremely valuable asset when planned improvements to nearby PortMiami and the Panama Canal are completed.

In anticipation of the increased activity from those projects, business will begin to seek space it can lock in for the long term in the area. If Flagler began construction now, GlobeSt.com speculated, the timing could be perfect. [GlobeSt]
