Naples/Fort Myers

Landscaping: A 4.8-acre piece of agricultural land has sold in Naples. The buyer was an LLC with a Palm Beach Gardens address named KMB Holdings. The property is at 183 Price St. and sold for $1.7 million, according to SVN Commercial Partners, which represented KMB and announced the sale. According to Collier County property records the land was owned by Leo Jr. Lawn and Irrigation Services, which paid $260,000 for the property in 2001. A spokesperson for SVN says it is slated to become a nursery for CPL Hardscape and Landscape Construction of Naples, which was previously known as Collier Cutters of Southwest Florida.  

Piece of cake: The Cheesecake Factory is opening at Coconut Point in Estero. According to a spokesperson for the lifestyle center, the 9,000-square-foot eatery is set to officially begin serving customers Aug. 22. The popular California chain was founded in the 1970s and is as well-known for its long waits as its menu items. While the Cheesecake Factory’s opening has long been anticipated, Coconut Point also announced several new retailers that are joining or have joined its tenant roster. Eyeglass maker Warby Parker, urban fashion retailer The Archive and the ice cream chain IceSSSceamin’ have all taken space at the center. Warby Parker is opening in November and the other two opened earlier this month. Those shops will join previously announced new tenants the Southwest Florida Symphony; the PGA Tour Superstore; and facial bar Face Foundrié.
