Exciting changes are on the horizon for Fort Pierce as Pulte Homes prepares to launch a major residential community — the Pulte-Cornerstone Master Planned Development. Officially filed under PD2024-00007, the project will bring 250 single-family homes and a full suite of community amenities to a growing area of the city.
This Planned Development will rise at 2721 S. Jenkins Road, spanning two key parcels:
- 2324-413-0000-000-9
- 2324-431-0001-000-2
This area has become a hotbed for smart growth and suburban expansion. With easy access to major roads and local services, the site offers an ideal foundation for a new residential hub.
What Will the Community Include?
Pulte-Cornerstone will consist of:
- 250 single-family residential lots.
- A thoughtfully designed PD (Planned Development) layout.
- Community amenities such as recreation areas, walking trails, and potentially a clubhouse or pool.
- Landscaped open space to promote a walkable, scenic neighborhood.
Pulte Homes is known for designing developments that combine comfortable living with community-centered features, making them popular with families, retirees, and working professionals alike.
Community Impact & Growth:
This project is part of a broader trend of growth in the Fort Pierce area. As the region attracts new residents, developments like Cornerstone help meet the demand for high-quality housing in well-planned environments. Expected community benefits include:
- Job creation during construction
- Improved infrastructure
- Increased housing inventory
- Expanded tax base to support local services
Of course, local input remains critical. Planning authorities will consider traffic flow, environmental factors, and school impacts as part of their comprehensive review.
What’s Next?
The project is currently under review as PD2024-00007. Interested residents can monitor progress through public meeting agendas or by contacting the local planning office. Community feedback may also be requested during hearings and workshops as the development moves through approval stages.
Stay informed as Pulte-Cornerstone advances — this 250-lot community has the potential to reshape part of Fort Pierce into a thriving new neighborhood.
