WEST PALM BEACH-BASED VERDEX CONSTRUCTION EXPANDS TO TAMPA TO BUILD THE POINTE ON WESTSHORE
West Palm Beach, Fla. – (May 15, 2019) – West Palm Beach-based Verdex Construction announces a May 22 groundbreaking ceremony to mark the start of construction for The Pointe on Westshore, a luxury multi-family apartment and townhome community in Tampa, FL, being developed by Jupiter, FL-based Index Investments. This marks Verdex’s first project beyond Florida’s east coast.
The Pointe on Westshore, located at 4950 West Prescott Street, will consist of six, five-story buildings with 444 luxury apartments and 14 two-story townhomes, along with a two-story, 11,000-sq. ft. clubhouse featuring two pools and a fitness center. Total construction cost is estimated at $75 million.
“With dramatic population growth across Florida, it’s logical that Verdex should expand its core market geography beyond Florida’s east coast, so we can bring our brand promise of ‘Building Something Better’ to other parts of the state,” said Verdex Construction President Rex Kirby. “Index Investments is a great partner, and we look forward to being a key component of their goal to bring top-quality, new residential options to Tampa.”
The Point on Westshore will be built across a 23-acre site, and the buildings total 679, 563 sq. ft. The project is expected to be completed in February 2021.
Verdex projects currently underway or recently finished in South Florida include the Canopy Hotel in Downtown West Palm Beach; 1000 North, an upscale restaurant/club on the Loxahatchee River in Jupiter;
Sabbia Beach Condominiums, a 19-story, 68 unit luxury residential tower in Pompano Beach; and the
Town Southern apartments in Royal Palm Beach.
In just four years, Verdex has grown in size and recognition to include numerous awards, including being named by GrowFL as a Florida “Company to Watch,” and Startup Business of the Year by the South Florida Business Journal.
