The Pierce

The Pierce is a $73 million mixed-use, mixed-income redevelopment rising on a 3.04-acre downtown Boynton Beach site at 115 North Federal Highway, between Boynton Beach Boulevard and Ocean Avenue, one block from the Intracoastal Waterway. The eight-story project will deliver 300 residential apartments — 50 percent rented at 80–120 percent of Area Median Income for 15 years, then 30 percent for a further 15 years, then 10 percent in perpetuity under the project's Tax Increment Revenue Financing Agreement (TIRFA) with the Boynton Beach Community Redevelopment Agency — alongside approximately 17,000 square feet of restaurant, retail, and office space and a public parking garage with 150 public parking spaces. The amenity program features a resort-style pool with private cabanas, a state-of-the-art fitness facility, pickleball courts, a co-working collective, and keyless Bluetooth door entry, with the entire complex built and certified to national green building standards. A defining feature of the project is the relocation of Hurricane Alley — the longtime Boynton Beach restaurant and bar founded by Kim Kelley — to a dedicated standalone building at the project's northwest corner, anchoring the dining program with one of the city's most established hospitality operators. Developed by Fort Lauderdale-based Affiliated Development, founded and led by Jeff Burns, the project emerged from a competitive 2021 RFP issued by the Boynton Beach CRA in which Affiliated outbid four other firms including Related Group, with site plan approval secured in March 2023 and a TIRFA amendment approved in June 2026. Demolition and utility relocation are underway with vertical construction slated for mid-2026.
