Joyce Development Group LLC will bring a 120-room SpringHill Suites by Marriott, a Starbucks Coffee Co. shop and First Watch, The Daytime Cafe, to its $30 million Baymeadows Park project at the site of the former Baymeadows Golf Club.
The group and District 11 City Council member Danny Becton broke ground on the mixed-use center Wednesday at 7981 Baymeadows Road, east of Interstate 95.
“The project will be transformative for the area and improve the quality of life,” Becton said.
Becton considers the site a center of revitalization for all of Baymeadows.
John Joyce, managing member of Joyce Development, said Starbucks should open in August followed by First Watch in September. Construction is expected to start on the five-story hotel in March and be completed by November 2021.
Along with the hotel, Baymeadows Park will include 22,000 square feet of commercial, retail and restaurant uses among four buildings.
Starbucks and First Watch will anchor the ends of the project.
Joyce said 17,000 square feet of the commercial space is committed, leaving 5,000 square feet available for lease.
Eric Yi and Austin Kay with NAI Hallmark are the commercial real estate leasing brokers for the tenant space.
The project architect is RDL Architects Inc. of Shaker Heights, Ohio.
