Peck Plaza Condominiums in Daytona Beach Shores

If you’ve ever visited Daytona area, you would recognize this building in Daytona Beach Shores immediately. This round oceanfront tower 29-storey high built in 1974 by Ed Peck Sr. was the tallest building on the East Coast of Florida north from Miami. Ed Peck Sr. with Peck Plaza Condos- Daytona Beach Shoreshis family has developed quite a number of condominium high-rise buildings that dot the Beach in Daytona Beach Shores.

It is still the tallest building in Daytona Beach Area. The top floor is a restaurant rightfully called Top of Daytona. 6,705 sq. ft. restaurant takes the whole floor and has an elevator for their use, an office and a walk-in cooler on the ground level. You can only imagine the views from there.

When built, prices were from high $40s for a one bedroom unit to low $60s for 2 bedroom units. With time prices changed. The highest prices for a 2 bedroom units went to $415,000 in 2005 and 2006, but with the cooling of the market, they slid down. Currently there are 6 units for sale on MLS in Peck Plaza Condominiums. Here are the prices:

I have attached the video interview with Ed Peck Sr. He did not only developed Daytona Landmarks, but is a great family man. Watch the video. It was shot in 2008. At that time he was married happily to his wife for 68 years. That means that it is 70 year now.

Isn’t it something?

And if having a restaurant right in your building is important (besides the views, of course), then call me to see the units in Peck Plaza. If you decide to buy there, we might have a chance to meet Ed Peck Sr.
