Special Purpose Space For Lease @ 3204 Heartleaf Ave E

SweetBay™ is an urban infill project that is located on the site of the former Bay County International Airport in Panama City, Florida. The Master Plan for the 700 acre site features five miles of waterfront park, marina, village town center, [University Academy] a K-8 public charter school, and a variety of single-family and multi-family homes. The old runways become a system of waterways and greenways that link the village center and neighborhoods with the waterfront. An extensive system of nature trails further enhances the connectivity, linking homes with shops and restaurants, school, and recreational opportunities. The subject property is the only large piece of property available for development on St. Andrew Bay.

The developer has rights for 3,200 residential units, 700,000 SF of commercial space, and has successfully sold over 150 homes in their initial phase. The developer’s goal is to develop and sell over 150 units per year with buildout estimated for 2032. The most appealing aspect of Sweet Bay is its focus on the waterfront and water related activities. For this reason the developer has invested the time necessary to acquire complete entitlements for a 117 wet slip marina and 240 boat capacity dry storage facility to be constructed on the North end of the site. This site is truly “shovel ready” with FDEP and USACE permits in hand. Permits are valid thru June 2022.

The transferable permits authorize the permitee to excavate & construct a full service marina located at the North end of the development. Slips will utilize floating concrete docks and finger piers that would accommodate vessels 40 to 60 feet in length and drafting up to 7'. There will be 68 permanent slips and 1,454’ of flexible mooring area. There will be two launching slips in support of an upland dry storage facility, and a full service fuel dock. The marina basin will be 7.33 acres in size and will be excavated from existing uplands. A dry storage facility with a 240 boat capacity, restrooms, and an office/retail facility will be located on the uplands adjacent to the marina. The permitted depth of -8 (MLW) is authorized under the permit. This space offers accomodations for: marina.
