Coming Soon in Port St. Lucie
Excitement is in the air as GL Homes’ first city park at Riverland, a 4,000 acre masterplan community, is taking shape and coming soon for residents of Port St. Lucie to enjoy. The City Park will include a dog park with three different sections designed for different size breeds, a softball field and two soccer fields with concession stand.
Residents of Riverland get to enjoy the remarkable 4,000-acre master-planned neighborhood, showcasing a 24-acre Sports & Racquet Club alongside a 51,000 sq. ft. Wellness & Fitness Center, a 5-acre Arts & Culture Center housing an 11,550 sq. ft. Creativity Hub, numerous City Parks, and a forthcoming Town Center, all linked by extensive traffic-free pathways along a Paseo and green spaces.
The Sports & Racquet Club at Riverland boasts 24 acres solely devoted to fitness, granting residents direct entry to more than 40 courts, such as pickleball, tennis, and bocce. The on-site Pro Shop provides everything you’ll need to look and play your best. The Riverland Sports Director ensures that residents can partake in organized clinics, leagues, round robins, tournaments, and fun events to enjoy year-round.
Within the meticulously planned Riverland community, the 5-acre Arts & Culture Center stands as a pinnacle of artistic expression. Catering to individuals of varied skill levels, be it budding artists or culinary enthusiasts aspiring to rival Iron Chefs, it serves as a vibrant hub. Spanning 11,550 square feet, the Creativity Hub encompasses art studios, classrooms, state-of-the-art demonstration kitchens, community gardens fostering farm-to-table delights, and the serene Artist Garden—a sanctuary for boundless inspiration.
One of Riverland’s distinct features that set the community apart from others is the unique Paseo and greenway system. Tailored for eco-conscious enjoyment and restricted solely to pedestrian, bicycle, and golf-cart transit, these pathways efficiently connect residents without the need to get in the car.

As founder and CEO/Chairman, Itchko Ezratti is still very involved in the company and works closely alongside many of the earliest employees who lead it today.
Today, Misha Ezratti, Itchko Ezratti’s son, serves as President of GL Homes and leads operations across the state of Florida. He continues to reinforce the culture, started by his father, that "employees and customers are part of the GL Homes family."

The average manager tenure at GL Homes now exceeds 22 years. Both Itchko Ezratti and Misha Ezratti believe that employee loyalty translates to a better overall customer experience. Those original values are still reflected in every home built by GL Homes today.
Because GL Homes started and only builds in Florida, GL Homes knows how to design a home to thrive in the unique tropical region that is built to last for generations. From distinctive architectural designs with energy-efficient materials and sturdy concrete block construction, to maximizing outdoor living spaces, GL Homes knows Florida better than anyone.
