Groundbreaking Set for Florida Community

Work is set to begin on Glass House Boca Raton, a 28-unit residential development in Boca Raton, Fla. The nine-story structure is slated for completion by the second quarter of 2027.

The development will offer two- to four-bedroom units ranging from 2,504 to 3,865 square feet. The homes are listed for sale for $2.6 million to more than $7 million.

Residences include terraces ranging from eight to 12 feet in depth, spa-inspired primary bathrooms with dual-sink vanities, walk-in closets, smart home integration and solid core wood doors.

Common-area amenities include a 10th-level rooftop with ocean, Intracoastal Waterway and golf course views. The rooftop deck features a pool, Jacuzzi, private cabanas, an outdoor catering kitchen with a barbecue and a lounge with a fire pit. The property also includes a fitness center and a plunge pool on the first floor, as well as a resident-only lounge.

The tower is being developed by local development experts who formed 280 E Palmetto Park Road LLC, including Noam Ziv, who is also principal of RED-C Group, a developer with experience in residential, hospitality, retail, and office space. Ziv was previously CEO of El-Ad National Properties, a subsidiary of Elad Group, where he spearheaded the development of Alina Residences Boca Raton.

Also on the development team are Adam Gottbetter, principal at ASG Development, and Anthony Perera, founder and managing partner of Exuma Capital Partners. West Palm Beach architecture firm Garcia Stromberg designed the property, with interiors by GS4. Kaufman Lynn Construction is the general contractor, with Concierge Property Solutions as development consultant. Douglas Elliman Development Marketing is overseeing sales and marketing for Glass House Boca Raton.

Palm Beach markets still buzzing

The for-sale residential market in Palm Beach County still has some momentum, according to Douglas Elliman. The number of signed contracts for condos in the county rose 11.7 percent in January 2025 compared to the same month a year earlier.

Though fewer units traded hands at above $1 million than those that traded below that price, the high end of the market is still active as well, Douglas Elliman reports. In January 2024, 32 contracts were signed for condo units in excess of $1 million. During the same month a year later, 51 contracts in that price range were signed.

That growth included a mushrooming number of units priced in excess of $5 million. During January 2024, only two in that price range saw signed contracts; a year later, contracts for eight such residences were inked.
