New York investors getting Turnberry's Davie Commons
It looks like Aventura-based Turnberry Associates is giving up control of its controversial Davie Commons project to a group of New York investors with a different plan for the property.
KeyBank (NYSE: KEY) filed a foreclosure lawsuit in July against Davie Commons Holdings, Jeffrey Soffer, Jacquelyn Soffer and Turnberry Davie Commons Investors. The Soffers lead Turnberry Associates, which also owns the Fontainebleau Miami Beach.
KeyBank sold that $17.4 million mortgage for an undisclosed sum to KBNP LLC, which, state records show, is controlled by Turnberry Associates and lists Jacquelyn Soffer as its managing member...<div class="feedflare">

Casinos should know: The House rules
<img src='http://assets.bizjournals.com/southflorida/SFBJ%20Resorts%20World%20Causeway%20315*100.jpg?v=1'>The apparent failure of destination resort legislation on Friday triggers questions about the time line for development of the Genting Group's proposed $3.8 billion resort in downtown Miami.
Florida House Rep. Erik Fresen, R-Miami, postponed consideration of his bill before the Business and Consumer Affairs Subcommittee ? essentially killing the bill for the 2012 legislation session.
The Genting Group has spent more than $400 million to assemble about 30 acres in downtown Miami, including the current headquarters of The Miami Herald and the nearby Omni Center...<div class="feedflare">
