president of St. Lucie West, Pete Hegener, called the area.
“Pete called Peacock Boulevard ‘restaurant row’ but he
couldn’t get a restaurant,” Anderson recalled. “He finally
landed Ruby Tuesday’s.”
In 1994, St. LucieWest Development was sold to a Canadian
development company. After changing hands several times, it
became Core Communities, a subsidiary of Levitt Corp. in
1997, but kept the same management team,White said. Like
St. LucieWest Development, Core oversaw the coordinated
development of St. LucieWest and sold off acreage to commercial
and residential developers. Core has now moved its offices
to its other major project in St. Lucie County, Tradition.
