After 16 years of doing business in East County, Coastal Orthopedics has decided to build its corporate headquarters in the community with an 88,000-square-foot facility on a 17-acre parcel on State Road 64, just east of Interstate 75.
The move is largely a response to rapid population growth in East County and the I-75 corridor.

Construction is expected to begin in January. Read more
