More development could be happening soon along the town’s main east-west roadway.

Plans also call for a restaurant, office, drug store and 150,000 square feet for research and development.

Formerly known as Parcel 19, the development is being built what was one of the largest vacant tracts in incorporated Palm Beach County.

The project was originally planned to include a 20-pump gas station and have 350 homes. Facing opposition, the developers scaled back the plan.
