Bay Harbour Marina Village Project Proposes Construction
An island community faces a rundown high-profile entry point, ravaged by Hurricane Charley, that faces an uncertain future clouded by government panels, real estate developers and upset citizens. Fort Myers Beach? Not this time! Cross the Matanzas Pass Bridge to San Carlos Island and encounter the almost exact same scenario. Jack Mayher and Nick Ruland are partners in the Bay Harbour Marina Village project at 1195 Main Street on San Carlos Island. They propose constructing 130-foot-high residential buildings with 113 units, 37 for “workforce” or “moderate income” housing, with a 286-space boat barn, 520-car parking garage, and 15 townhouses. The Oak & Main Streets site was home for years to Compass Rose Marina, until Hurricane Charley destroyed that in 2004.  FULL STORY
