Gunster shareholder Javier L. Vazquez is representing Graham Companies, a long-standing family-owned developer, in its proposal for a 541-unit apartment complex in Miami Lakes. The town's Planning and Zoning Board is slated to consider the first readings of the land use amendment and rezoning applications for the project.
The South Florida Business Journal spoke with Vazquez regarding the project, which would feature 14 buildings ranging from three to five stories.
Vazquez noted that the density sought by the rezoning is significantly lower than what would be permitted under the Live Local Act.
