Joint Venture Proposes Atrium Residential, Set to Feature 222 Units in Boca Raton

The Meyers Group and Accesso Partners, a South Florida-based joint venture with an extensive development track record in the region, are moving forward with plans to redevelop a site near the Broken Sound Golf Course. Officially titled ‘Atrium Residential,’ though also referred to as ‘The Residences at Broken Sound,’ the project is scheduled for review by the Boca Raton Planning Board tomorrow on November 20th.

The proposal includes several requests related to zoning, land-use changes, site plan amendments, and more, which are all subject to different votes. Planned for a surface parking lot next to an existing office building, the project would introduce an eight-story apartment building at 6111 NW Broken Sound Parkway. It will be the first large-scale apartment development in Boca Raton for both Accesso Partners and The Meyers Group, following their $25 million acquisition of the property in 2024 under the entity BRI 1885 Atrium at Boca, LP.

Designed by Garcia Stromberg Architecture, this modern residential building will include 222 units, with 12 designated as workforce housing and 23 as affordable units. This inclusion complies with Boca Raton code, which requires developers to provide a minimum number of affordable or workforce units to qualify for higher density in certain zoning districts. These units are subject to a 30-year affordability covenant, securing affordability long-term.

The building’s 222 units will consist of 1 efficiency unit, 73 one-bedroom units, 109 two-bedroom units, and 39 three-bedroom units. Unit sizes will range from 528 SF for the smallest unit to 2,622 SF for the largest, with an average of 1,097 SF. All residents, regardless of income designation, will have access to amenities such as a clubhouse, resident lounge, gym/fitness center, lobby and mailroom, swimming pool, and other common areas.

On the ground floor, the development will feature walk-up units, open space, 2,015 SF of retail space, amenity space, lobby space, and the beginning level of a four-story podium. This podium will include 325 parking spaces and 18 bicycle parking spaces. Parking will also be available in a surface parking lot and garage for the next-door office building, bringing the masterplan’s total to 622 parking spaces, well beyond the required 537 spaces.

Elevations provided by the project’s architect, Garcia Stromberg, showcases Atrium Residences rising 80 FT, or 8 floors. The facade will be composed of glass balconies, white stucco finishes, impact resistant windows, and other modern finishes.

The board is set to review five resolutions, including the rezoning of 0.90 acres from Recreation to Light Industrial Research Park, an amendment to the Future Land Use Map from Recreation/Open Space to Planned Mobility, a site plan amendment for the construction of an eight-story structure, and other items such as plat reconfigurations.

Developments like Atrium Residences are becoming increasingly common in Boca Raton, where developers are eyeing office parks or industrial land for multifamily development, either through rezonings or the Live Local Act. Just a few months ago, Floridian Development reported on the proposed redevelopment of portions of the Amtec Center office park. Developers Beztak and Wexford are planning an eight-story multifamily building.
