WPTV went to the 800 block of North Railroad Avenue, located just north of downtown, on Monday and saw there was still some construction.
Representatives with Nora told WPTV the district is in a soft opening phase with several tenants opening throughout this year. Solidcore and Sunday Motor Co. opened last week. IGK Hair Salon, Zen Hippo and Celis opened this week and H&H and a few others are opening this month.
West Palm Beach resident Sheila Becker took a pilates class at Solidcore on Labor Day.
"I took a Solidcore class, the 10 o'clock class, it was amazing," she said. "Obviously, West Palm is blowing up and getting so busy. I'm just five minutes away, it's beautiful, I think there's a lot of good things coming."
Developers said the $1 billion project is the largest planned redevelopment in West Palm Beach since City Place opened in 2000.
The Nora District plans to host a grand opening sometime next year, once the Nora hotel in the area is completed.
