Standing just past Pine Ridge Road (right), the building occupies what Gulf Coast Commercial’s VP of operations, Philip E. McCabe, called “an ideal location,” bridging the gap between Naples’ traditionally affluent areas and its expanding reach into North Naples. Collier County recently approved transferring maintenance of Trail Boulevard to the developer, allowing for a full-scale redevelopment. Plans include enhanced landscaping, new medians, full resurfacing and a deceleration lane. “The idea is to take the level of this side of [U.S.] 41 up to what’s on the west side,” McCabe said. The improvements will extend to Ridge Road, past Alison Craig Home Furnishings and the Yoga House building. Courtesy Smallwood Architecture
