Sizing Up Trump
Just the size alone will make this property stand out on the Fort Lauderdale Strip. The 298-room condo hotel is more massive than would be allowed under today's development rules. But the city of Fort Lauderdale could do little to change the project because an earlier version of the condo hotel was approved in 2001, and that approval is still valid.
When completed, Trump International Hotel and Tower Fort Lauderdale will join signature projects in Chicago and Las Vegas as the only three select Trump International Hotel & Tower properties modeled after the Trump International Hotel & Tower in New York, which was rated the number one hotel in the United States by Condé Nast Traveler.
Upscale Surroundings
Sandwiched between Miami and Palm Beach, most of Fort Lauderdale's oceanfront was first developed in the 1940s and 1950s. It was once the favored haven for college spring-breakers. Now its renaissance as an upscale resort area has gained traction.
A quick tour of the area today reveals waterfront mansions, private jets, mega-yachts, sleek foreign sports cars, designer boutiques, trendy spas, championship golf, hot new nightspots, gourmet restaurants with celebrity chefs and much more. Prosperity reigns year round.
Signs of the transformation are everywhere. Many of the older, smaller buildings have already been torn down. New construction is underway. Fort Lauderdale will ultimately encompass some of the finest new condos and hotels in all of Florida.
Next door to The Trump stands The Atlantic condo hotel, the first of the new luxury resorts and a Starwood Luxury Collection property, opened in 2004. At least eight major beachfront condo hotels were approved several years ago and are now in development, including the Q Club to be run by Hilton, the W Fort Lauderdale Hotel & Residences and the five-star St. Regis.
