An excavator tore through the multi-story office building at 400 S. Dixie Highway on Tuesday, kicking off the demolition of the property that will make way for a 12-story high rise that is set to contain 306 apartments.
The “Modera Boca” project will be built on the site that, until this week, was home to “The Arbors,” an office complex that consisted of four connected, square-shaped buildings. By mid-afternoon Tuesday, about half the complex had been demolished between SE 3rd and SE 5th streets along Dixie. Just east of the site where Modera is slated to be constructed is the future site of the unrelated “Mr. C” luxury high-rise, which will bring 133 multi-million dollar condominiums to the same three-block area between Dixie and Federal highways.
