You don’t have to travel far to see what a 6-story development would look like on the JCC property.
Altra Kendall replaced the old strawberry fields on the west side of Calusa (9501 SW 137th Avenue). It features seven buildings occupying just over 10 acres of the 11.6-acre site.
These buildings are significantly taller than anything else in the surrounding neighborhood.
One of our neighbors shared drone photos comparing the Altra Kendall development with the Alper JCC site.
