(New Providence, The Bahamas) September 2, 2008 – Spearheaded by master developer and real estate visionary Roger Stein, the New South Ocean Development Company’s future $1 billion mixed-use resort project is located on 385 acres of pristine shoreline along the southwestern coast on New Providence Island in Nassau. The exclusive development will encompass a large upscale casino hotel, an intimate five+ star boutique hotel, a lifestyle hotel brand, a mega yacht marina, spa, retail outlets, a world-class tennis center and residential components.
