PORT CHARLOTTE — Goodbye Murdock Village, hello West Port.
Kolter Land Partners, a land acquisition and development firm based in Palm Beach County, announced Monday the purchase of Private Equity Group’s interest in Murdock Fund LLC for an undisclosed sum.
Along with a new developer, the area known as Murdock Village will get a new name.
“Murdock Village was a little too broad,” Jim Harvey, president of Kolter Land Partners, told the Sun Monday. “We liked West Port Charlotte, but that was too long. We thought West Port was a good way to establish the area.”
