"When the babies fly away, they'll be able to take the sign down and get rid of the nest," construction worker Broks Ramage told WKMG-TV.
The workers would be able to move the nest, but they would need permission from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.
"You have to get a permit through FWC before they can move them," FWC Officer Greg Workman told Florida Today.
Workers said the birds are not blocking construction efforts and the sign can remain while they work on the new building.
Cliff Aiken of Exxcel Project Management said the developers are planning to simply wait until the birds abandon the nest before they tear down the sign.
