The Klotz Group of Cos., with its partner KABR, has received government approval to move forward in redeveloping the Morocco Shrine Center in Jacksonville, Fla.
The firms are planning a more than $200 million mixed-use development, Village at Town Center, for the 37-acre site.
The current standing 100,000-square-foot main temple building will be demolished for 1,025 units, which will consist of luxury and market-rate apartments, 55-plus and student housing, and a five-story hotel. The plan will also feature 115,000 square feet of retail, restaurant and office space with public green space.
Construction is expected to begin in 2022.
