Heron Pond Information

Heron Pond Condominium

The Heron Pond Condominium is located at 8400 S.W. 1st Street, Pembroke Pines, Florida. The community consists of 304 units spread over 19 buildings on approximately 25 acres. The property was initially developed as a garden apartment complex known as Runaway Bay in 1988 by Oxford Development. The projected was converted to a condominium in late 2006.

The City of Pembroke Pines is concerned that the general safety requirements —as outlined in the Florida Fire Prevention Code and the Florida Building Code— are not being maintained in the community. The City has requested that the ownership and management of the Heron Pond Condominium submit the necessary technical structural reports and building permit applications required to address the significant structural issues within the Heron Pond community. The health, safety, and well-being of all of the residents of Heron Pond is the City's primary focus.
