Palm Beach County group rejects Kushner warehouse plan April 5, 2021 at 3:55 PM EDT - Updated April 5 at 4:31 PM
A controversial project with ties to the father of Jared Kushner, former President Donald Trump s son-in-law, is facing pushback in West Delray Beach.
Kushner Companies, owned by Charles Kushner submitted a plan to Palm Beach County in November asking to build a nearly 1-million-square-foot distribution center at the site.
The 50-acre parcel of land is located north of West Atlantic Avenue and west of the Turnpike. Currently, there is a nursery at the site. Really the entire project is just not the right thing for the right place, said Beth Rappaport, the president of the Coalition of Boynton West Residential Association (COBWRA).
