Delray Swan is an approved future townhouse development in downtown Delray Beach. The current plan calls for 36 fee-simple townhouses on a site spanning much of the block between SE 1st Avenue and SE 2nd Avenue, near SE 2nd Street. The location places the community just south of Atlantic Avenue and close to the restaurants, shops, galleries, entertainment, and public spaces of downtown Delray Beach.
The latest approved design represents a significant change from an earlier proposal for the property, which envisioned a five-story mixed-use apartment building. The revised plan creates a lower-density, for-sale townhouse community instead. Buyers following future Delray Swan Homes for Sale can expect a distinctly urban setting with downtown destinations nearby, although individual home specifications and a sales timeline have not yet been publicly established.
About Delray Swan
Delray Swan is planned as a 36-residence, fee-simple townhouse development. The site encompasses multiple properties along SE 1st Avenue, SE 2nd Avenue, and SE 2nd Street, immediately west of the Florida East Coast Railway corridor.
The Planning and Zoning Board approved the Level 3 site plan, architectural elevations, and landscape plan for the 36-townhouse version of Delray Swan in May 2026. The board specifically expressed support for the project’s architecture and civic open-space design.
Because Delray Swan is a future community, detailed information about individual townhouse layouts, interior finishes, pricing, and sales releases has not yet been reliably established. Those details should become available as the project moves closer to development and sales.
History of Delray Swan
Plans for the Delray Swan site have evolved considerably. In 2021, the City of Delray Beach approved land-use and zoning changes for properties along SE 1st Avenue, bringing them into the Central Business District and Railroad Corridor Sub-district.
An earlier Delray Swan proposal called for a five-story mixed-use building with 195 apartments, including workforce housing, and commercial space. The City Commission approved that site plan and related development requests in 2023.
The property was subsequently redesigned. In May 2026, the Delray Beach Planning and Zoning Board approved a new Level 3 site plan for a 36-unit, fee-simple townhouse development with architectural elevations and landscaping. This newer townhouse plan is the current version of Delray Swan and replaces the much denser residential concept previously proposed for the site.
Amenities
Delray Swan is not yet constructed, and a conventional private amenity package such as a clubhouse or community swimming pool has not been reliably established for the current 36-townhouse plan. The approved design does incorporate landscaped areas and civic open space within the development.
The downtown location provides access to a wide range of surrounding public and commercial destinations, including:
Atlantic Avenue
Old School Square
Pineapple Grove Arts District
Downtown Delray Beach restaurants, cafés, galleries, and shops
Delray Beach Tennis Center
Veterans Park and the Intracoastal Waterway
Delray Municipal Beach
Public parks and recreation throughout downtown Delray Beach
These are surrounding city amenities rather than private amenities belonging to Delray Swan.

Delray Swan Homes for Sale FAQs
Where is Delray Swan located?
Delray Swan is planned for a downtown Delray Beach site covering properties along SE 1st Avenue, SE 2nd Avenue, and SE 2nd Street. The community will be south of Atlantic Avenue and immediately west of the Florida East Coast Railway corridor. Downtown restaurants, shops, Old School Square, Pineapple Grove, and the Intracoastal Waterway are nearby.
What type of homes are planned at Delray Swan?
The current approved plan calls for 36 fee-simple townhouses. This differs from the earlier Delray Swan proposal, which was designed as a five-story mixed-use apartment development. Detailed townhouse floor plans and interior specifications have not yet been publicly established.
Has Delray Swan been approved?
Yes. The Delray Beach Planning and Zoning Board approved the Level 3 site plan application for the 36-townhouse development in May 2026. The approval included architectural elevations and a landscape plan. The project is still a future development, so approval should not be confused with completion or the start of residential sales.
What amenities will Delray Swan have?
The approved plans incorporate landscaping and civic open space, but a larger private recreational amenity package has not been reliably established for the current townhouse development. Delray Swan’s location provides access to downtown Delray Beach’s public parks, dining, shopping, arts, entertainment, and waterfront recreation. These surrounding destinations are separate from the community itself.
Will Delray Swan have an HOA?
Final HOA or community-association details have not yet been publicly established for the 36 fee-simple townhouses. Fees, maintenance responsibilities, leasing provisions, and other community rules should therefore not be assumed at this stage. Buyers should review the final association and ownership documents once they become available.
