New hotel proposed on Fort Lauderdale beach

The same group that owns the B Ocean Resort in Fort Lauderdale wants to build another hotel on the site.

CRP/InSite Clipper LLC, a joint venture between Weston-based InSite Group and Washington-based private equity firm the Carlyle Group, will take its plan before the city’s Development Review Committee on Sept. 27. It calls for a 12-story, 224-room hotel at 1137 Seabreeze Boulevard/A1A.

The 3.1-acre site is on the northeast corner of Harbor Drive and Seabreeze Boulevard. It’s part of the larger property with a 487-room hotel that CRP/InSite Clipper acquired for $107 million in 2014. They renamed the Yankee Clipper the B Ocean Resort and started extension renovations that are still ongoing.
