In 2005, Jacksonville-based LandMar Group became the next sugar daddy to potentially transform this property into something grand. LandMar’s plans for the 44-acre site consisted of four towers, single-family houses and townhouses adding up to 1,000 units. LandMar intended to break ground on the first 38-story, 328-unit tower in 2007. A second phase, based on market demand, would have added a 350-room hotel, more residential space and up to 800,000-square-feet of office space. The economy had other plans and by 2009, LandMar had filed for bankruptcy, flushing the shipyard’s future down the drain with the rest of its business.
