Plans for the seven-acre apartment complex, called The Residences at Monterra Town Center, include a gym, swimming pool, community garden and bocci courts.

According to an application to build the apartment complex, an adjacent 11-acre site would have 6,000 square feet for a bank, 12,000 square feet of offices and 127,000 square feet of retail stores and restaurants.

The next phase of Monterra’s development is pending approval by Cooper City and Broward County. The Monterra community already has more than 550 rental apartments and hundreds of houses and townhouses.

The 525-acre community in Cooper City is located along the west side of University Drive, north of Sheridan Street and south of Stirling Road. [Sun-Sentinel] – Mike Seemuth
