B2K Development Brings Award-Winning Senior Living Model of The Bristal to South Florida

After 25 years of creating communities that serve families across the New York tri-state area, B2K Development is expanding its footprint to South Florida with plans to bring The Bristal Assisted Living to Boca Raton and beyond. This strategic expansion reflects both the company’s commitment to serving aging adults wherever they call home and the natural evolution of relationships built over decades of thoughtful community development.

Meeting Families Where They Are

The decision to enter the South Florida market stems from a simple observation: many of the families B2K has served in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut have established second homes or relocated to Florida. These families, already familiar with The Bristal’s reputation for quality care and community-focused approach, have been asking when they could expect the same level of service in their new communities.

“We’ve been looking at South Florida for quite a while, notes Jan Burman, Chairman of B2K Development. “We have tremendous name recognition here. We’re well-regarded among aging adults and we believe we’ll be the community of choice when they need assisted living.”

B2K has secured a five-acre site on Congress Avenue in Boca Raton for The Bristal’s first South Florida location, with plans to identify six or more additional sites stretching from Stuart to Miami. The company has engaged a specialist to scout locations that meet The Bristal’s exacting standards for accessibility, community integration, and quality of life factors.

A Legacy of Family-Focused Care

Since establishing The Bristal Assisted Living in 1999, B2K Development has grown to encompass more than 26 communities across the tri-state area, each designed around a core principle: supporting families during life’s transitions. This philosophy extends beyond physical structures to encompass the peace of mind that comes from knowing loved ones are receiving compassionate, professional care in a dignified setting.

“It’s always been about families,” Burman explains. “We’re here to care for people who need it most and to give families peace of mind knowing their loved ones are in good hands.”

This family-centered approach has guided B2K’s growth from its origins in industrial real estate to becoming a fully integrated development firm with expertise spanning senior living, multifamily residential, and commercial properties. The company’s hands-on approach ensures that each development maintains the quality standards and attention to detail that families have come to expect.

Expanding the Residential Portfolio

Beyond The Bristal, B2K Development is exploring opportunities to bring its successful multifamily brands — including The Seasons, Sutton Landing, and The Brix — to South Florida markets. These residential communities, known for their thoughtful design and strategic locations, could address the region’s growing demand for quality housing options across different life stages.

Building on Proven Expertise

B2K’s expansion into South Florida leverages decades of experience in navigating complex development challenges, from site selection and regulatory approvals to construction management and community operations. As a fully integrated real estate development firm, B2K brings together experts in development, construction, and management who work collaboratively to ensure each project serves its intended community effectively.

The South Florida expansion represents not just geographic growth but a continuation of B2K’s mission to create communities that enhance lives, support families, and contribute positively to the regions they serve.
