Introductory Note

     This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D is being filed by BankAtlantic Bancorp, Inc., a Florida corporation (“BBC”), and Levitt Corporation, a Florida corporation (“Levitt”), as successor to Levitt Companies, LLC, to amend the Schedule 13D originally filed on April 22, 2002. This statement relates to the common stock, par value $.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Bluegreen Corporation, a Massachusetts corporation (the “Issuer”). The event which prompted the filing of this Amendment No. 1 was the acquisition by Levitt from BBC on December 22, 2003 of all of the 1,200,000 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer owned by BBC. Information in the original Schedule 13D remains in effect except to the extent that it is superseded by this Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D.

Item 2. Identity and Background

Item 2 is amended and supplemented as follows:

     Until December 31, 2003, Levitt was a wholly-owned subsidiary of BBC. On December 31, 2003, BBC effected a spin-off of Levitt by means of a distribution by BBC to its shareholders of all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Levitt.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

Item 3 is amended and supplemented as follows:

     Levitt purchased the 1,200,000 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock from BBC by delivery of a one year $5.5 million promissory note and the issuance to BBC of additional shares of Levitt common stock (which were included in the December 31, 2003 spin-off to BBC shareholders). The loan is junior in right of payment and subordinate to Levitt’s outstanding unaffiliated bank debt. The principal amount of the loan is payable monthly and bears interest payable monthly at the prime rate. Additionally, the $30 million demand note executed by Levitt in favor of BBC in connection with Levitt’s original acquisition of 8,317,325 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock was converted to a five-year term promissory note, with interest only payable monthly initially at the prime rate and thereafter at the prime rate plus increments of an additional .25% every six months and principal payable at maturity.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 is amended and supplemented as follows:

     Levitt acquired the 1,200,000 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock from BBC in connection with the spin-off of Levitt. These shares were reported as owned by BBC in the Schedule 13D originally filed on April 22, 2002 by BBC and Levitt.

Item 5. Interest in the Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 is amended and supplemented as follows:

     On December 22, 2003, Levitt purchased 1,200,000 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock previously reported as held by BBC for the consideration indicated in Item 3.

     Levitt is the record and beneficial owner of 9,517,325 shares of Common Stock and possesses sole power to vote or direct the vote and sole power to dispose or direct the disposition of those 9,517,325 shares. As a result of the sale of the 1,200,000 shares of Common Stock to Levitt, BBC ceased to be the

beneficial owner of any shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock on December 22, 2003. Based on the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ending September 30, 2003, the aggregate percentage of all outstanding shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Levitt is approximately 38.7%.

Item 7. Material to be Filed as Exhibits

     
Exhibit 1   One-Year Promissory Note dated December 22, 2003 of Levitt Corporation in favor of BankAtlantic Bancorp, Inc.
     
Exhibit 2   Five-Year Promissory Note dated as of December 30, 2003 of Levitt Corporation in favor of BankAtlantic Bancorp, Inc.
