Tavistock Development Company announced Phase II of Pier Sixty-Six, a planned four-tower mixed-use expansion across approximately 8 acres adjacent to the recently reopened Pier Sixty-Six resort campus at 2301 SE 17th Street in Fort Lauderdale. The proposal calls for four 23-story towers at 270 feet, delivering 339 total residential units: Building A (101 units) on a 1.4-acre north parcel, and Buildings B, C, and D (90, 75, and 73 units respectively) on a 6.6-acre south parcel. Ground-floor retail and restaurant space and second-level office space are planned throughout all four buildings. Key public realm improvements include expansion of the waterfront promenade, a new marina water basin carved from the south parcel, and a community gathering space beneath the 17th Street Causeway Bridge developed with the City of Fort Lauderdale and Florida DOT. Phase I of the campus reopened in January 2025 following a multi-year redevelopment that delivered a 325-room resort, 88 private residences, and marina upgrades.
Pier Sixty-Six Phase II is one of the most significant expansion announcements in Fort Lauderdale's Intracoastal corridor since the original Pier Sixty-Six redevelopment was conceived. The addition of 339 residences across four towers — building on an already-opened resort, 88 existing residences, and established dining and marina infrastructure — gives Phase II buyers something that most South Florida preconstruction projects cannot offer: a fully operational, immediately experiential mixed-use community to buy into, rather than a future vision. This is a compelling differentiator in a Fort Lauderdale luxury market that brokers have identified as recovering strongly but vulnerable to oversupply from projects without completed amenity ecosystems.
What was announced and by whom?
Tavistock Development Company unveiled Phase II of Pier Sixty-Six on May 29, 2026 — a mixed-use expansion planned for approximately 8 acres surrounding the landmark waterfront destination at 2301 SE 17th Street in Fort Lauderdale, which reopened in January 2025 after a multi-year redevelopment.
What does Phase II include?
Four 23-story towers rising 270 feet (82 meters), delivering 339 residential units, office space, retail, restaurants, structured parking, expanded marina facilities, and new public waterfront amenities. Building A (north parcel, 1.4 acres): 101 residences. Buildings B, C, D (south parcel, 6.6 acres): 90, 75, and 73 residences, respectively.
What public realm improvements are planned?
Completion and expansion of the waterfront promenade; creation of a new water basin (~1 acre on the south parcel) expanding marina access; a new community gathering space beneath the 17th Street bridge in partnership with the City of Fort Lauderdale and Florida DOT; and opportunities for public art installations throughout the development.
What is the status of Phase I, and why does this matter for the broader campus?
Phase I — the multi-year redevelopment of the historic 32-acre waterfront property — reopened in January 2025 with a 325-room resort, 88 private residences, marina improvements, and a collection of dining, retail, and public waterfront amenities. Phase II focuses on the remaining parcels east of the 17th Street Causeway Bridge, continuing the transformation beyond the completed resort district. Together, both phases will establish Pier Sixty-Six as one of the most complete waterfront mixed-use destinations in the southeastern United States.
