Urban Seed

Many people dream of making the world a better place. For Anthony Matonti, owner of planning and building company Urban Seed, that dream became a career.

“I was born and raised in south Florida and I love my state, but I often imagined how we could collectively do and plan things better; transportation infrastructure, highway connectivity, environmental stewardship, development patterns, construction methods and honoring the shoulders we stand on today. I knew I wanted to be part of those decisions and help shape the world around me,” Matonti says. “I love what I do, I love to build, I love the process, I love seeing a project come to fruition and I am excited for the future. Ten, 20 or 50 years from now, I want to reflect on the times I pursued my passions instead of thinking, ‘What if?’”

Matonti’s commitment to improving the world isn’t only limited to work. He also volunteers as a board member for the city of Naples and Collier County, the Naples Redevelopment Community Agency Advisory Board and the Collier County MPO Bicycle & Pedestrian Advisory Committee. In addition, Matonti volunteers as a T-ball coach for the North Naples Little League.
