THINGS THEY ARE A-CHANGIN’! REDO COMING FOR DOWNTOWN DELRAY BEACH AREAS


Hudson Holdings (who owns and is renovating the Gulfstream Hotel in Lake Worth) and MGM Delray just unveiled plans for the restoration and relocation of 8 historic Swinton Avenue buildings.  Swinton Corners is the name of this development. Goal is to sustain the historic district, restore original designs to historic homes and to provide space for galleries and artists.



Included in the plans is The Sundy House hotel, restaurant and botanic-like gardens, The Rectory church built in 1912,  and Cathcart House built in 1902, an example of French Colonial Revival style.



Doc’s All American, on the northeast corner of Atlantic and Swinton, across from Swinton Corners was built in 1951. Doc’s has been a favorite stopping off place for meals and snacks for decades, from it’s iconic ice cream, burgers and hot dogs to its famous chocolate milkshake.  It is on the market, awaiting a buyer.  A 23-unit condo could occupy the space with some retail areas as well.  Address is 37 W Atlantic.  There is a Dunkin Donuts and an adjacent lot, part of Delray’s Old School Square Historic district, that also awaits a buyer.
