A partnership between Kushner Cos. and Aimco (NYSE: AIV) has acquired a development assemblage in Fort Lauderdale for $49 million and plan to develop Fort Lauderdale’s tallest tower. The development partnership acquired a 1.87-acre site at 520 W Broward Blvd. for $35.5 million from Swire Properties as well as a 2.31-acre site at 300 W Broward Blvd. for $13.5 million. The acquisition was financed with a $40 million mortgage provided by MSD Partners.

The towers would rise 48-stories, 546’. The tallest building in Fort Lauderdale is currently the 46-story 100 Las Olas. The project would feature 956 rental apartments, 23,752 SF of commercial space and 1,031 parking spaces. The tower was designed by ODA Architecture and features two towers joined by a 10-story base which will house the amenities including a fitness center, library and resident’s lounge. Atop the landscaped podium will be sunrise and sunset pools, cabanas and a yoga deck. Plans for the project were submitted to the City of Fort Lauderdale for approval in late 2021.
