Shell company secured $35M mortgage; facility ownership remains unclear
WHAT HAPPENED: A company called Silver Fox 606 has applied to build a 2-million-square-foot data processing center at 13820 Silver Fox Road in the Village of Indiantown, according to village records.
WHAT IT MEANS: Indiantown, a village of roughly 6,500 residents in western Martin County, could see one of the largest commercial developments in its history. The facility's scale — 2 million square feet — would dwarf most industrial projects in the area. A $35 million mortgage tied to the property was recorded with the Martin County Recorder's Office, with $12 million disbursed up front in June 2025. Village staff have indicated this is not the only data center inquiry Indiantown has received.
WHO IS AFFECTED: Indiantown residents and property owners near Silver Fox Road. The project could bring infrastructure demands — power, water, road capacity — that affect village services and taxes.
WHAT WE DON'T KNOW: The ultimate owner of the facility remains unclear. Silver Fox 606 was incorporated in April 2025 and lists only Nelson Ferreira, who operates a Juno Beach-based construction business, as manager, according to state business records. Ferreira did not respond to media inquiries. The village has not yet posted the pre-application or site plan online. WPTV reported that similar data center proposals with opaque ownership structures have surfaced in Palm Beach and St. Lucie counties.
WHAT TO WATCH: Release of the pre-application and site plan from the village, which are the subject of a pending public records request. No date for a formal public hearing has been announced. According to available information,
