Living at Nu River Landing puts the Fort Lauderdale Riverwalk at your front door. The brick promenade follows the New River past Esplanade Park, the historic Stranahan House and a string of riverfront restaurants, and continues west to the Broward Center for the Performing Arts. Mornings start with a walk or run along the water, and evenings end with dinner on Las Olas Boulevard, two blocks away.
Yachts and water taxis cruise past the building all day, so the river itself becomes part of the view. Residents on the east side look toward the Intracoastal and the Atlantic, while the west side takes in the downtown skyline and the sunset.
Nu River Landing is one of the few downtown towers where you can comfortably live without using a car every day. The Brightline Fort Lauderdale station is a short walk away, with trains to Miami, Boca Raton, West Palm Beach and Orlando. The water taxi stops along the New River, and Fort Lauderdale beach, Port Everglades and the airport are each about a 15-minute drive.
With 409 residences, Nu River Landing usually has more units on the market than smaller boutique buildings, which gives buyers real choice in floor plan, view and price. It appeals to first-time downtown buyers, second-home owners who want a lock-and-leave residence, and investors who value the location and the amenities.
Before you buy, review the association's leasing and pet rules, the current monthly fees, the insurance coverage and the latest milestone inspection and reserve study required under Florida's condominium safety laws.
