Apogee Golf Club
« on: October 19, 2022, 12:30:52 PM »
You would think a 1,200 acre project in Florida with 3 full courses, 2 short courses, 2 ranges, and involvement by Michael Pascucci, Gil Hanse, Kyle Phillips, Mike Davis, and Tom Fazio II would have been mentioned on this site before. But somehow not?

In a few years' time I hope the club name doesn't ironically symbolize the peak of a burst bubble.

There was a thread on this earlier this year before the project had a name. At the time they were considering "Three Lakes Golf Club" and even have a website with that name: https://www.threelakesmartin.com/our-plans.html

Moving 6 million cubic yards of dirt.  Golf as it was meant to be.

Hardly,

Gil is certainly cashing checks these days.  Glad that he is making coin but a long departure from what he believed when he was a younger architect.   Didn't he write an chapter for one of Geoff's Shackelford's books on not taking too many projects?  Further, he regularly espoused the minimalism/naturalism movement....at least back then.

Oops, missed the part where they mentioned "private".
