More great news for Florida's future and Martin County. Bert Sakmann, a Nobel Laureate, has been named the Scientific Director of the Max Planck Florida Institute based in Jupiter. Even though the bio-tech park is in Palm Beach county, Martin County will benefit tremendously from firms servicing the industry, as well as scientists working at the bio-tech park that want to take advantage of Martin County's A-Rated schools.
Research at the Max Planck Institute will focus on bio-imaging, working closely with their neighbor, Scripps Florida. The Max Planck institute will be creating 1,824 jobs and $2.4 billion in labor compensation over 20 years in return for almost $200 million in incentives from the State, Local Government and partners.
The permanent facility of the institute is a 100,000 sqaure foot state of the art biomedical complex expected to open in 2011.

Turner Groves Limited Partnership, a Fort Myers company, has proposed to build a massive agricultural and industrial project in Martin County with a new road and bridge to Port St. Lucie. The project would cover 1,782 acres and include a 5-million-square-foot industrial park, 1 million square feet of office space, 200,000 square feet of retail space and 500 hotel rooms.
As large as this plan is, it is still dwarfed by the proposed Southern Groves plan in Port St. Lucie with 2 million square feet of office space, 2 million square feet of industrial space, 2 million square feet of retail space and 7,388 houses.
These are just two more of the many examples we are starting to see of Light at the End of the Tunnel for the Treasure Coast.

Jan's Place is on the move again. After being out of town for two years, and then returning to their old spot on the Jensen Beach circle, they've decided to do it right. The Trudel family, Bob, Jan, Katie and Matthew are reopening down the street in the former Kilwins at 1990 NE Jensen Beach Boulevard.
They've had the windows covered with paper, so we can't even get a peek inside, but I'm sure it is going to WOW everyone. By the way, for those of you planning on visiting for the first time, their is plenty of parking in the rear.
The Grand Opening is set for November 1st. All I can say is: "I can't wait!"
