Last year, FCI affiliate FCI Palmetto Bay LLC paid $7.8 million for the nearly 4-acre site, which previously housed a bank branch.

Florida Crystals, owned by sugar mogul brothers Alfonso Fanjul and José Pepe Fanjul, focuses its real estate arm on multifamily developments. In 2016, it opened Atlantico at Kendall, a 322-unit apartment building, and has developments in Miramar and Delray Beach. FCI, formed in 2012, was working on at least 10 projects and planned to deliver 2,800 apartments by this year.

Atlantico Palmetto Bay will be part of the city’s new downtown, a project that’s expected to cost between $10 million and $12 million.
