Downtown Fort Lauderdale is Fort Lauderdale’s urban core along the New River—the central business and riverfront district, distinct from the Las Olas beach and boulevard residential pockets to the east.
The New River and Riverwalk frame much of downtown; this is urban riverfront living rather than oceanfront condo towers on A1A. Housing includes condominiums, apartments and other urban residences in mid- and high-rise buildings near offices, restaurants and cultural venues. Nearby landmarks and conveniences include the Riverwalk, Brightline station, Broward Center area, NSU Art Museum district and Las Olas Boulevard to the east. Because properties in Downtown Fort Lauderdale differ by lot, docks and finishes, a property-specific walkthrough is worthwhile.
