An Amazon catalyst: Alabama developer buys Cross Creek Golf Course for redevelopment
An Alabama-based developer plans to redevelop the former Cross Creek Golf Course as a direct result of Amazon's robotics fulfillment center under construction on Mahan Drive.
The $6.3-million transaction closed last week and includes five parcels spanning about 30 acres across from the Tallahassee Automobile Museum, said Brad Parker, a partner and broker at TLG Real Estate Services in Tallahassee.
Parker and TLG broker Bryan Cureton represented the Seminole Boosters, who sold the property to Harbert Realty Services in Birmingham, Alabama.
Built in 1990 by Tallahassee businessman DeVoe Moore, the 9-hole, par-3 course is located at 6701 Mahan Drive and closed in 2018, with the exception of hosting events.
Parker said Moore, a major donor to Florida State University and alumni, gifted the back portion of the golf course to the Seminole Boosters. He said the remaining portion of the course was donated to the Boosters by the family of Lucy Ho, another FSU donor and longtime restaurateur who opened Tallahassee's first Chinese restaurant.
