Fort Lauderdale’s New and Pre-Construction Condo Update: November 2021

Dec 08, 2021 December 08, 2021


Throughout the year, we have seen businesses and wealthy people continue fueling luxury condo developments as well as sales in South Florida. And developers are working double-time to provide supply for this demand. Add to this the recent lifting of travel bans, and developers are more motivated than ever to bring their plans to life.

Stepping up on progress this November, Kar Properties announced that 2000 Ocean is closer to securing its TCO and preparing to move forward with closings. Developer Daniel S. Catalfumo has a 6-story luxury condo development planned for Palm Beach County that will feature private dockage. And The Related Group finally closed on a bulk condo buyout deal it has been pursuing for over a year in Pompano Beach. The group’s new 21-story luxury tower will replace an older condo building on the beach. 

Read on below for details on these and more in our monthly condo pre-construction market roundup for November 2021:

Designed by Taller de Enrique Norten (TEN) Arquitectos, the brushed metal and glass tower will be home to only 64 luxury units. Offering a truly boutique experience, this Kar Properties development is set to feature only half- and full-floor residences, affording its residents panoramic water views.

Looking forward to breaking ground in December this year, the 41-unit Forté is already 60% sold out. Developers Two Roads Development and New York-based Alpha Blue Ventures have already
secured a $121.5 million construction loan for the waterfront condo development.

Perched on a 1.38-acre site at 1311 S. Flagler Drive, the 24-story tower will be looking forward to a 2024 completion. Designed by Miami’s famous Arquitectonica, residents of the sophisticated glass tower will be privy to sweeping views of Worth Avenue, the Intracoastal, and the Atlantic Ocean. Its artistically curated interiors will be designed by the internationally acclaimed Jean-Louis Deniot.

Featuring only two flow-through units per floor, residents will further have the option to combine them into a full-floor home. Boasting of over 10-foot-high ceilings, sunlit interiors, custom Italian cabinetry, Sub-Zero and Wolf stainless steel appliances, designer fittings, and over 1,000 sq. ft. in outdoor living space, residents can look forward to a truly bespoke lifestyle. Most units will range from 4,200 to 8,400 square feet in size.

Developer Daniel S. Catalfumo plans to build a 6-story luxury condo building on a 6.74-acre site just south of PGA Boulevard in Palm Beach County. The $33 million site includes parcels at 2036 and 2060 Sandy Hill Lane, 2080 Shady Lane, and 11511 Ellison Wilson Road. Once home to the Panama Hattie’s seafood restaurant, the site has been lying vacant for several years.
 

Catalfumo was one of the developers at the Ritz-Carlton Residences in Singer Island about 12 years ago. He now aims to build a luxury condo on par with the St. Regis or Ritz-Carlton. Although the assemblage is approved for 132 units, Catalfumo will be filing a new site plan for 96 condos. Units are expected to range from 3,300 to 5,000 square feet in size, with pricing estimated at $3 million to $5 million. The 6-story condo will also feature a private dock.

Solemar condos just a few blocks away in Pompano Beach, Related has bought the 46-unit Beach Villa at 900 N Ocean Boulevard in a bulk condo buyout.

Most Miamians dread the thought of such a risky drive for fear of getting caught at the Brickell Avenue Bridge. One of Miami’s busiest drawbridges, it links Brickell to Downtown by connecting Brickell Avenue to Northeast 2nd Avenue. When it rises, so does frustration. The Brickell Bridge spans the busy Miami River, opening on the hour and half-hour (during non-curfew time) to allow both pleasure boats and maritime traffic to pass. For anyone navigating between Brickell and Downtown, these frequent openings can be a headache, especially as both neighborhoods keep on growing. So What’s the Problem with the Brickell Bridge? Let’s Investigate! Brickell is considered one of Miami’s hottest neighborhoods today.
