High (Rise) Hopes

If current trend lines hold steady, Southwest Florida will in the next two to three years be home to a handful of new residential towers, a product line that largely evaporated in the aftermath of the previous recession.

Although most of the new towers will be clustered around Naples, where a few are already under construction, Bonita Bay and downtown Fort Myers could also see new development beginning in 2017.

And several other projects that are well underway are scheduled to top out in the coming year.
