The Friends of the Belleview Biltmore, an organization fighting to save the historic structure, along with the Florida Trust for Historic Preservation and the National Trust for Historic Preservation, sought an injunction to forestall further demolition. In December, 2015, the Belleair Town Attorney said that all lawsuits had been "voluntarily withdrawn" by the parties, thereby allowing the developer to proceed with continued demolition and construction of new townhomes and condominiums, preserving a portion of the 1897 structure as a small boutique hotel. The building was removed from the National Register of Historic Places in October 2017.
