North Myrtle Beach ~ Beachwood and Azalea Sands scale down project

Property owners of the Beachwood and Azalea Sands golf courses have made additional changes to a project they hope to bring to North Myrtle Beach, including reducing the number of units, lowering building heights, and reserving space for future development.

Beachwood Golf Corporation, Azalea Sands Golf Corporation and The Hartford Group LLC are proposing that the city annex and zone, as a planned unit development, about 313 acres of the Beachwood and Azalea Sands golf courses to redevelop the land.

Plans call for residential units, a mixed-use town center, featuring a regional shopping center, a resort hotel, office space, and marina and resort amenities on the site between U.S. 17 and the Grand Strand Regional Airport.

The owners reduced the number of units and reconsidered their design of the traffic patterns in the area at the council’s request.
