A 14-acre lot in Boca Raton that’s remained vacant for nearly 30 years will soon be the site of a new park by the Intracoastal Waterway. Boca Raton parks officials are finishing development on Ocean Strand Park, which will stretch from the Intracoastal to A1A, in between Spanish River Boulevard and Palmetto Park Road.
A developer has said it has the right to build, now accusing the city of Boca Raton withholding records that could help its case. The city is among the many South Florida communities facing challenges over beachside development.
