Four Seasons Private Residences Fort Lauderdale Begins Closings At Record Price Per Square Foot

Four Seasons Private Residences Fort Lauderdale, the first five-star development to debut in the nation’s yachting capital, has commenced closings. The first residences have closed at an average of $2,000 per square foot, an unprecedented price for the Fort Lauderdale condominium market. Only seven developer residences of the initial 83 remain for sale as the project is quickly approaching sellout and buyers can now tour the completed residences for the first time as the building readies for opening. Initial occupancy will begin this quarter, in conjunction with the opening of the hotel.

“Fort Partners has always recognized the potential that Fort Lauderdale held,” said Nadim Ashi, Founder and CEO of Fort Partners, who developed the project. “I am proud of the talent that we assembled to provide exceptional exclusivity, design, and service in a city that was ready to be reimagined as a luxury oceanfront destination.”

Prospects touring the building can experience the luxurious interiors designed by award-winning London-based designer Tara Bernerd, and understand how Miami-based architect Kobi Karp, the mastermind behind the building’s distinctive shape, designed the building so that every residence offers views of the ocean. They can also walk the building’s private gardens, which were designed by landscape architect Fernando Wong. In a first-of-its-kind collaboration, Fernando is offering residents at Four Seasons Fort Lauderdale exclusive, complimentary landscape design services at their private terraces. Residents can work directly with Fernando to transform their outdoor spaces into enviable lounges with lush greenery. The unique service adds to the allure of the indoor-outdoor lifestyle at Four Seasons Fort Lauderdale, one of the finest in all of South Florida.

“Fort Partners is proud of the standards it has set for hospitality and residential living in Fort Lauderdale,” said Ramzi Achi, Principal of Fort Partners. “The Four Seasons Hotel and Private Residences is an iconic development that has been created by a team of visionaries and will provide the best in services as well as beautiful design and exclusivity for its residents.”

In tandem with the opening of the residences and the highly anticipated new hotel, two culinary concepts will also debut early this year. They are Evelyn’s Table, an upscale oceanfront restaurant located on the Ocean Terrace, and Honey Fitz, a casual café and bar located in the lobby. In addition to offering residents a dynamic resort experience, the restaurants will bring fresh, elevated cuisine to Fort Lauderdale, with elegant interior design by hospitality designer Martin Brudnizki. Named for Evelyn Fortune Lilly Bartlett, the Fort Lauderdale luminary who founded local landmark Bonnet House Museum & Gardens, Evelyn’s Table honors Evelyn’s commitment to bringing art and creativity to the beaches of Fort Lauderdale.

Evelyn’s Table will serve coastal cuisine with eastern Mediterranean flavors, and exude the tradition of a yacht club combined with the glamour of Four Seasons in Fort Lauderdale. The design features a polished palette of blues, whites and woods, along with sophisticated and fresh nautical accents. Honey Fitz is the lobby café and champagne bar named after the Presidential yacht made famous by John F. Kennedy. It will offer gourmet coffee creations and pastries during the day and wine and champagne at night.

Amenities and à-la-carte services managed by Four Seasons include a state-of-the-art fitness center, two pools with luxury cabanas, beach butler service, signature Four Seasons spa, yachting services and a pet concierge with an on-call veterinarian. Residents also receive special courtesies at Fort Partners’ premier portfolio throughout South Florida and the Caribbean.

New Renderings Revealed Of The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Pompano Beach

Fortune International Group and Oak Capital have revealed new Piero Lissoni-designed interior and new exterior renderings of The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Pompano Beach. The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Pompano Beach will be first luxury address in Pompano Beach and the property will offer 205 residences and over 35,000 square feet of resort-style amenities with stunning views of the Atlantic Ocean and Intracoastal Waterway. The highly amenitized property is the first ever to offer two distinct towers, Beach Tower on the pristine sands of Pompano Beach to the east and Marina Tower with an intracoastal experience and private marina to the west, both of which will be complemented by legendary Ritz-Carlton service.

The interiors and landscape design at The Ritz Carlton Residences, Pompano Beach is designed by Piero Lissoni, who is creative director for Alpi, B&B Italia, Boffi, Living Divani, Lema, Lualdi, Porro and Sanlorenzo for whom he also designs an extensive range of products. Recognized as one of the masters of contemporary design, he has worked with many international brands including Alessi, Antrax, Atlas Concorde, B&B Italia, Bonacina1889, Cappellini, Cassina, Cotto, and more. The architectural design is by Revuelta Architecture International.

“The project of Lissoni New York regards the interior of the two residential towers: one facing the ocean and the other overlooking a marina. Maintaining the same language but defined individually to lend a specific character to each building, the aim was to design environments that were comfortable and welcoming and create sophisticated places for relaxation and socialization, introducing a new lifestyle opportunity for the area of Pompano Beach in South Florida.” Said Piero Lissoni.

The 14-story Marina Tower provides an equally stunning location just across the street from Beach Tower, overlooking 250 feet of waterfront between the Intracoastal Waterway and Pompano Beach’s South Ocean Boulevard. The tower offers 88 residences with sunset views, including four penthouses, which range in size from one to four bedrooms, spanning 917 to 3,947 square feet.

The 32-story Beach Tower offers a prime location on the sands of Pompano Beach with 250 feet of ocean frontage on 2.25 acres of land. A selection of 117 oceanfront residences, including two penthouses, range in size from one to five bedrooms, spanning 1,309 to over 6,824 square feet.

“In the east tower (The Beach Tower), the connection and dialogue with the ocean are amplified right from the entrance by the presence of large pools that flank the approach to the reception. The contemporary design defined by pure lines and forms is expressed through natural materials and light colors with touches of rich blue, while in the west tower (The Marina Tower) the hues are slightly darker. The inspirations for both buildings come from the nautical world and from the warm and Mediterranean atmosphere of a yacht club, while the detailed and almost theatrical lighting design is also elemental in cultivating intimate and welcoming environments. Large glazed volumes define the spaces and appear to bring the lush Caribbean nature indoors.” Said Lissoni.

The two towers offer an expansive array of over 35,000 square feet of curated amenity space. The Residences will offer a Marina Yacht Club with a private resident marina, an oceanfront Beach Club, sports courts, tropical pool decks, indoor-outdoor social areas, on-premise dining, and much more to further enhance the overall living experience

“The landscape design is closely tied to the locality and highlights exotic native species that interplay with the clean and linear geometry of the hardscape, producing a sinuous terrain that calls to mind the forms of desert dunes.” Said Lissoni. “Both inside and outside, water is a central element that dialogues continually with the architecture, becoming a part of it and generating pathways and connections in the process.”

Fortune International Sales is the exclusive sales and marketing team for The Residences, with homes priced from $1 million and completion slated for 2025. The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Pompano Beach are located at 1380 S. Ocean Blvd. in Pompano Beach, Florida.
