The Wildflower property has been the number of much debate in the city.

Should the City create a park for its residents, or should the city rent out the land to a company looking to place a restaurant in a prime location?

Back in 2009, the City of Boca Raton purchased the 2.3 acres of land off the northwest corner at the East Palmetto Park Road bridge for $7.5 million.

Since then, many debates have flared as to what should the city do with its land.

On January 15, 2014, the City of Boca green lit negotiations to open a Houston’s Restaurant to occupy the city’s prime real estate on the Intracoastal Waterway.

Since then, many different points of views have been spoken and the city, to a point, has been divided in what to do with the space.

A week ago, Hillstone Restaurant Group said the company was ending negotiations for a Houston’s restaurant on the former Wildflower property. However the City of Boca Raton is certain negotiations are not over, and are still looking for options.
