The redevelopment of an 11.43-acre site within the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd. area is underway through a collaborative effort with Habitat for Humanity. This Initiative aims to provide affordable homeownership opportunities for families earning between 30% and 80% of the Fort Myers Area Median Income (AMI). The White Coral development will specifically cater to low and moderate-income qualified families, addressing the critical need for affordable housing in the region.
