Celebrating the Grand Opening of the Spruce!
The West Palm Beach Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) joined community leaders, project partners, and residents in celebrating the grand opening of The Spruce, a transformative mixed-use development in Northwood Village. The ribbon-cutting marked a significant milestone in the ongoing effort to expand workforce housing opportunities and support thoughtful redevelopment throughout the city.
Developed through a strong partnership among the private sector, the City of West Palm Beach, the CRA, and Palm Beach County, The Spruce builds contributes to the creation of new workforce housing units in the North end.
As West Palm Beach continues to grow, projects like The Spruce help strengthen neighborhoods, support local businesses, and create opportunities for the teachers, healthcare workers, hospitality employees, first responders, and young professionals who help our community thrive every day. A special thank you to Affiliated Development, Jeff Burns, Nick Rojo, and the entire team who helped bring this vision to life.
