Fresh on the heels of the emergence of a plan to redevelop the former corporate headquarters campus of Office Depot in Boca Raton, the conversion of another commercial office complex – just down the road – to residential uses has been advanced by the city planning board.
The Mutual of America complex, located across 11 acres at 1150 NW Broken Sound Parkway, will become home to 287 dwelling units. The apartments will span 355,055 square feet in area and would be mated to a seven-story integrated parking garage. Representatives for Mutual of America said the development would set aside 10 percent of the units for affordable housing and an additional 5 percent of units for workforce housing. The project will also include 2,000 square feet of retail space.

The building will stand 72 feet tall.
The site plan for the property also includes the construction of a previously-approved, seven story office building with 157,861 square feet of space and a six level parking structure. Building permit applications have been submitted for the office building, however the permits have yet to be issued. The existing office building at the site will be demolished after the new structure is complete.
Jacob German, a planner for the city, told board members that the residential uses will be located on the western portion of the site, parking would be located to the east, and the new office building will be located in between the two.

“The existing office would be demolished to make way for the residential building,” said attorney David Milledge, representing Mutual of America. “We’re really trying to provide a lot of buffering and really soften the area.”
The board voted 4-0 to approve the project, which will require another round of approval by the city council before plans can be finalized.
