13th Floor Investments and Rockpoint have commenced construction on Link at Boca, a mixed-use multifamily development in Boca Raton, Florida. The joint venture secured a $100 million construction loan from Santander Bank to fund the project, marking a key milestone for the planned community.
The development is located at 680 West Yamato Road, directly adjacent to the Boca Raton Tri-Rail Station. Designed as an eight-story, transit-oriented project, Link at Boca will feature 340 apartments positioned above approximately 24,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space. The combination of residential and retail uses is intended to activate the site around the regional commuter hub.
Link at Boca is being executed as a public-private partnership with the South Florida Regional Transportation Authority. Through a competitive RFP process, 13th Floor Investments was selected to lead the project, and the development team is leasing the land from the public agency. This structure aligns the interests of the transportation authority and the private developers in bringing new housing and retail offerings to the station area.
The residential program will include a mix of studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments ranging from approximately 600 to 1,300 square feet. Units are planned with expansive balconies, providing additional private outdoor space for residents. The mix of floor plans is expected to appeal to a range of household sizes and living arrangements.
Planned amenities at Link at Boca include a pool deck designed as a central recreational and social hub for residents. The project will also incorporate a social lounge and bar, along with coworking spaces and private offices intended to support remote and hybrid work patterns. These offerings are positioned to enhance the day-to-day experience for residents who live and work in the community.
The project team includes ANF as construction manager, overseeing delivery of the vertical and site improvements, and Corwil Architects as the architect of record, responsible for the building design. According to the development team, completion of Link at Boca is anticipated in the second quarter of 2028, which will bring new multifamily housing and retail options to the area surrounding the Boca Raton Tri-Rail Station.
