Hollywood, Fla. – December 3, 2025 – Greenspoon Marder is pleased to announce that Land Use & Zoning partner Elizabeth Somerstein has successfully secured approval for Paramount Place, a 96-unit senior affordable housing development located off Dixie Highway in Hollywood, Fla.

Developed by Housing Trust Group, one of the nation’s leading affordable housing developers, Paramount Place addresses the critical need for senior affordable housing in the community.
