Fort Lauderdale’s waterfront gem, SIXTH&RIO, is rising gracefully along the banks of the New River, with vertical construction now well underway and top-off projected for Fall 2025. Developed as a boutique luxury residence in the heart of the city, the project remains on schedule for completion in 2026, continuing to deliver on its promise of elegant, serene living in one of South Florida’s most coveted locations. The eight-story development is beginning to take shape, revealing the architectural contours that will define its boutique scale and riverfront presence. With each passing month, progress on-site highlights the momentum behind this highly anticipated residential address.
Recent construction milestones mark the steady evolution of the project. The full foundation has been completed, and the major concrete pour for the seventh level was executed in July 2025. Formation of the pool sub-deck and a portion of the eighth level is now underway. Masonry work has reached levels 1.5 and 2, with the building’s exterior profile becoming increasingly visible from the riverwalk. Site infrastructure is also advancing, with all stormwater drainage wells installed and specimen trees successfully relocated. Underground electrical work is partially complete, with major equipment in fabrication, while plumbing systems continue progressing, with risers installed through level 5 and horizontal branches finished through level 3.
As SIXTH&RIO continues its upward ascent, future residents can look forward to a thoughtfully designed waterfront experience offering privacy, tranquility, and boutique luxury just moments from Downtown Fort Lauderdale’s cultural and culinary scene.
