FORT LAUDERDALE | 300 West Broward | 596 FT | 48 FLOORS

New tallest tower for Fort Lauderdale, FL

Taken from The Next Miami:
https://www.thenextmiami.com/new-proposal-submitted-to-build-fort-lauderdales-tallest-building/




A developer has filed plans to build a 600-foot tower in Fort Lauderdale, which would be the tallest ever in the city.

According to plans filed with the Federal Aviation Administration, the new tower would rise 596 feet above ground, or 600 feet above sea level.

Two temporary construction cranes are also set to be installed, at 646 and 647 feet above ground or 650 feet above sea level. The cranes were submitted under a separate application filed for the same site.

Both the crane and permanent tower height applications were submitted on November 11.

The tallest permanent height previously approved by the FAA in Fort Lauderdale is 515 feet above ground, or 519 feet above sea level for the recently completed 100 Las Olas tower. However, the actual roof height of that building is 499 feet, with the remaining height used for a lightning rod........

The airport is quite close to downtown, so the FAA will definitely have a final say.

Yup, unfortunately Fort Lauderdale has a +/- 500' height limit so this would be a special request.

https://floridayimby.com/2021/12/1-73-mi...ort-lauderdales-tallest-at-546-feet.html

546ft now according to YIMBY and 48 floors. Address is 300 W Broward. Still an awesome design. Can a Mod change the title?


From the article:
Plans to build Fort Lauderdale’s tallest building have been submitted to the Development Review Committee for 300 West Broward Boulevard, a 48-story mixed-use development proposed to rise in Downtown Fort Lauderdale. The property is more specifically located in the Sailboat Bend neighborhood near Las Olas and Beverly Heights, fronting West Broward Boulevard to the north in between Southwest 4th Avenue and Nugent Avenue to the west and east. The tower would conveniently rise approximately 2 blocks away from the Brightline Fort Lauderdale train station and the Riverwalk north of the New River. K-A 300 Broward JV LLC, a joint between New York-based Kushner Companies and Denver-based AIMCO, is listed as the developer – who have the development under contract from FTL/AD LTD. ODA Architecture is listed as the design and landscape architect with Stantec as the architect of record, and Witkin Hults + Partners as the landscape architect of record.

Fort Lauderdale’s potential future tallest building would rise approximately 546-feet to the roof level, or 558-feet if you were to include the bulkhead level. The structure would be comprised of 1,732,535 square feet of new construction including 956 residential units, 23,752 square feet of commercial space, 23,855 square feet of amenities, and 1,031 parking spaces all built over a 2.3-acre lot. Units would come in a diverse set of sizes and floor plans including studio, one-bedroom, one-bed + den, two-bedroom, two-bed + den, three-bedroom and penthouse. These would range anywhere between 563 square feet and 3,156 square feet; 31% of units would be one-bedrooms, and another 24% would be two-bedrooms. 18 penthouse units would be located on the 47th floor....

In many respects, Ft. L is better than Miami. Parts of South Beach have a lot of miscreants. Ft. L is definitely more civilized.

Agreed! Citizens of Broward County and Miami-Dade County hate crossing the border between each other even though it's one metro.
