Construction at Tavira, the sixth of eight high-rises planned by The Lutgert Companies at Bonita Bay, has reached the 17th floor.

Drywall installation is under way on the third floor, which is the first residential level, and mechanical work continues on the second-floor amenity level. Boran Craig Barber Engel Construction Co. Inc. broke ground on the 26-story high-rise in October 2007, and the building is slated for completion in fall of 2009.

Forty-four of Tavira’s 90 residences have been sold. Remaining residences, priced from $1,606,000 to $2,853,000, range from 3,517 to 4,146 square feet of air-conditioned living space with terraces that add 546 to 716 square feet of outdoor space. Screened terraces will be equipped with outdoor summer kitchens including electric grills, sinks and cabinetry.

The building will have a rooftop sunset terrace with views of Estero Bay, Bonita Beach and the Gulf of Mexico. Amenities will include two designer-furnished suites for guests and a manager in residence. The building will have a heated, resort-style pool with lap lanes, whirlpool and outdoor bar with screened cabana and fireplace as well as a clubroom with bar and catering kitchen, a theater/media room, card room, game room and a health club with a fitness center and steam and massage rooms.

Tavira is next to Estero Bay Park, one of three waterfront parks within the 2,400-acre Bonita Bay community. Premier Properties of Southwest Florida Inc. Realtors is the exclusive representative of the high-rises at Bonita Bay. The sales center is at the entrance to the community on U.S. 41 in Bonita Springs.

    Since March 6, coyotes have been fingered in a string of attacks against dogs, cats and goats in Lee and Collier counties. Coyotes have killed three small dogs, injured three others, and caused a man who came into contact with the coyote’s saliva and a woman who was bitten by one to have rabies shots.
