Developer of The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Naples Appoints William Fleck Senior Project Executive, High-Rise

Naples-based STOCK Residences, the luxury condominium division of award-winning, nationally revered STOCK Development, is proud to announce the appointment of William Fleck as Senior Project Executive, High-rise for STOCK’s signature waterfront project, The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Naples.  In his new role, Fleck will oversee day-to-day design, development, and construction teams at The Residences, serving as a liaison between Owners and the developer and ensuring that pivotal benchmarks are met. 

Fleck’s decorated career, which spans more than 30 years, has involved all facets of development — from equipment scheduling, preliminary site logistics and quality control to designer participation and review.  He got his start at Shearson Lehman/American Express Co. in New York City where he cut his teeth as a project manager during the design and construction of the American Express Tower at the World Financial Center.  Following stints at Salomon Brothers, Inc., Showboat Development Corp., HRH Construction Company, Inc., Bovis Lend Lease, Inc., Macklowe Properties, Inc., and Greenwood Gaming & Entertainment, Inc. (Parx Casino), among other reputable entities, Fleck eventually moved to South Florida where he worked for The Related Group.  

“We are honored to welcome William (Fleck) to the STOCK family and look forward to the collaborative, hands-on approach he will bring to The Residences, specifically,” said Brian Stock, CEO of STOCK Development.  “He is known throughout the industry as a savvy, results-oriented problem solver with a robust skill set that is virtually unparalleled.”

Fleck’s role with The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Naples will be pivotal as construction continues.  The exclusive development, which officially launched at the beginning of this year and is already more than 50% sold, is one of the most anticipated luxury residential offerings to be unveiled to date – a global draw thanks to its unique and expansive array of lavish amenities, concierge bespoke services, and coveted Vanderbilt Beach access.  

“This is an extremely exciting time to be in Naples, Fla. — and to be at the epicenter of such a transformative project is a distinct privilege,” said Fleck.  “I am amazed by the extraordinary scope of luxury services and amenities being offered here.  What STOCK has created is nothing short of spectacular.  This is a legacy project in every sense of the word, and I am thrilled to watch it rise.” 

“William is a highly revered, decorated leader who has truly seen it all,” added Claudine Leger-Wetzel, Vice President of Sales & Marketing at STOCK.  “We are confident in his expertise and the trust he will instill in our future Owners.” 

Well-sited at the intersection of Vanderbilt Beach Road and Gulf Shore Drive, The Residences are flanked by Vanderbilt Beach and the Gulf of Mexico to the west and Vanderbilt Lagoon to the north.  Highlights in each of the homes and penthouses, which currently start at $3.7 million, include expansive terraces, contemporary European-style kitchens and baths, Cambria quartz countertops, 10 to 12-foot ceilings, Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, porcelain and wood floors, and private elevator entrances.  In addition to an exclusive concierge, a 22-slip marina, and verdant park with walking trails, a putting green, and covered pavilions, amenities at The Residences will include The Vanderbilt Club — a 28,000-square-foot club with a Grand Owner’s atrium and lobby lounge, private restaurant, business center and coffee lounge, state-of-the-art fitness center, and a full-service spa — a kids’ room, a teen room with a Formula 1 simulator, and a club lounge with a golf simulator and private theater, among other features.  The project will also have 22,000 square feet of outdoor amenities, including a resort-style pool, lap pool, cabana suites, and fire pits.  The Residences are furthermore located directly between Naples’ two existing Ritz-Carlton hotels, including adjacency to The Ritz-Carlton, Naples, which recently underwent an extensive renovation and expansion.
