What happened?

The DiamondHead Beach Resort has filed plans with the Town of Fort Myers Beach to add 57 rooms, expand its existing structure, and build a new tower on the Estero Boulevard site. The proposal would need council approval through a commercial planned development rezoning and would seek several deviations, including extra height beyond the town’s standard code. That makes it one of the more consequential post-Ian redevelopment moves now in front of the town.
