Florida-based development and investment firm Kolter Urban opened a new office in Naples as part of a long-term expansion effort along the Gulf Coast.

“We are excited to open a permanent office in Naples, a move that was only natural given our long-term vision for Southwest Florida,” President Brian Van Slyke said in a press release. “We’ve been active in this market for years, and this new space will allow us to strengthen our relationships with residents, partners and local community members.”

Van Slyke added that Naples is one of the most dynamic markets in the country. “Our growing presence here emphasizes our belief in Southwest Florida’s continued growth as it becomes a destination for opulent, connected living,” he said.
