Ft. Lauderdale area construction summary.
I haven't posted this in quite some time...thought it would be fun to see what projects have opened and which ones have stalled or fallen through. There are still some things happening on Ft. Lauderdale Beach, Wilton Manors and in Ft. Lauderdale. I've seen more luxury apartments being built and less condos. It's also getting more difficult to find any information on some of this stuff.

Some information from the developers I have gathered for the 'Las Olas Blvd Tower' you have listed on Planning.
It's name (as of now), 100 East Las Olas. Originally it was planned to house Class A office, luxury hotel, ground floor retail, and above ground parking at 36 floors. Complaints from the River House (and I'm sure the market and other factors), hotel portion has been chopped. Current proposal is at: ground floor retail -hoping for restaurant- (10-12,000 sq ft), Class A office (290,000 sq ft), 9.5 levels of above ground enclosed(!) parking. Tower is to be 24 floors at ~292 feet.
Web site link below. Note: Renderings are of the current proposal, information (text) listed below are of the original proposal (aka outdated).

Ground breaking could start as early as the end of this year, but highly unlikely.

Also a small tower at Andrews Ave and Las Olas Blvd has been approved (for a while) and waiting for tenants before construction to begin. Name: 1 West Las Olas. Info: ground floor retail, Class A office. Specs: 10 floors at ~150 feet.
----
Flagler Village area: Just north of the Central Bus terminal is a two tower residential building under construction. One tower is about 15 floors and the other is about 12. Taller of the two towers has been topped off (maybe completed?) the shorter tower has recently started a month ago or so? I've tried to contact the developer, but they refuse to tell me anything. Go figure... ???
Hooper Development has also recently completed a 5-6 story (guessing on height) building. According to a dated map, it's a storage facility. Again, contacted the developer and they refused to comment.
I guess Flagler Village developers like to keep their buildings a secret.
