Grand Palms developers submit plan with 292 high-rise units

Developers have submitted an application to redevelop Grand Palms in Pembroke Pines, with a plan that includes 292 high-rise units across several towers. Local 10 reported on Nov. 12, 2026, that the application was submitted during the week of Nov. 9.

The reported proposal also includes villas, hotel upgrades, new amenities and infrastructure improvements. Its estimated cost is about $1 billion, not a final approved project cost. The application is at the proposal stage, with city review and public hearings expected, according to Local 10.

How the proposed unit count compares i

Local 10 described Grand Palms as a community with a golf course, a hotel and more than 1,100 homes. Compared with a baseline of 1,100 existing homes, 292 high-rise units equal about 26.5 units for every 100 homes. Since the reported home count is higher than 1,100, the actual ratio would be lower.

That comparison gives a sense of scale; it is not a calculation of net new housing. The report does not give a villa count, so 292 is not the proposal’s total housing count. Nor does that figure by itself establish whether existing homes would be replaced or what the final project footprint would be.

City review and the earlier redevelopment idea i

Michael Stamm Jr., the city’s planning and economic development director, said the review would consider traffic, effects on surrounding neighborhoods and neighboring properties, and support within Grand Palms. He said the city would hold public hearings where residents could comment. Local 10 did not report a hearing date.

The city’s general development-process description says applications go through a completeness review and, when required steps are met, staff review. That general sequence does not confirm whether the Grand Palms application has cleared either stage.

Vice Mayor Mike Hernández told Local 10 that Grand Palms’ homeowners association approved a redevelopment idea about 20 years earlier. He welcomed redevelopment while saying it must comply with city code. That earlier association action is distinct from the current application and does not constitute city approval of it.
