Sixth&Rio Launches Sales Center in Downtown Fort Lauderdale

Preconstruction sales for Sixth&Rio, an exclusive boutique condominium project in Downtown Fort Lauderdale, officially launched with the recent opening of the sales gallery at 1800 East Las Olas Blvd. Prices for the 100-unit residence project start at $900,000, with residences offering views of the downtown skyline and New River. Fort Lauderdale-based OceanLand Investments, Inc. sponsors the project, while 501 Aviva Owner, LLC is the developer.

“Sixth&Rio represents a strong value and lifestyle proposition that has already attracted scores of interested buyers looking for a newly-built and well-appointed waterfront residence in Downtown Fort Lauderdale,” Jean Francois Roy says, founder and CEO of OceanLand. “Our sales velocity is amazing and accelerating, and we are pleased to see that our residences are being so well received in the market. Sixth&Rio is an attractive option for a wide range of buyers to purchase a residence at a price point far below what they would be paying in neighboring areas for a new construction luxury condominium.”  

OceanLand selected Compass Development Marketing Group, led by Regional Director Beth Butler, to manage Sixth & Rio’s sales and marketing program, with the Compass team of Peter Barkin, Bridget Bass, Melissa Nichols and Stephanie Roy Schoonover leading the sales team.

“Our market knowledge and commitment to client satisfaction allow us to deliver consistent, successful sell-outs at South Florida’s most desirable condominiums,” Beth Butler says, Regional Director at Compass Development Marketing Group. “We are thrilled to work alongside the Sixth&Rio team handling sales and marketing for such a unique and notable project in Fort Lauderdale.” 

Prices range from $900,000 to more than $2 million for one-, two-, and three-bedroom condos. The residences are slated for completion by the end of 2024 and will be located at 501 Southeast Sixth Avenue, directly on the New River. Each unit will feature sleek Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, energy-efficient induction ranges, and Italian-inspired kitchens with finishes and cabinetry created by renowned ITALKRAFT. The building will feature various resort-style amenities, including a terrace with a resort-style pool and private cabanas, a modern fitness center, a spacious club room, and a refined owners’ lounge reminiscent of speak-easy and tropical outdoor lounge spaces.
