Florida Oceanfront Living: Kolter Urban Reinventing the Fort Lauderdale Coastline

Home to world-class resorts, majestic yachts, and internationally acclaimed dining, Fort Lauderdale Beach stands out as a premier destination for those seeking the epitome of luxury living. Yet, with buyers’ discerning tastes and a new wave of residential options, developer Kolter Urban, under the leadership of CEO Bobby Julien, understood that creating the region’s tallest residential address required nothing but the best in the business.
Kolter Urban assembled a team of experts for every aspect of Selene Oceanfront Residences. Renowned architect Kobi Karp was the first to achieve Kolter’s vision with a design featuring two glass-enclosed towers and a wealth of resort-style amenities that maximize the Florida sunshine. Now, Coastal Construction has taken the helm in bringing this exceptional condominium to fruition. Since 1988, Coastal has worked with top-tier developers to create some of the most recognizable high-rises across Florida. Let’s meet Coastal and learn more about their commitment to Selene.

Rising Strong on Fort Lauderdale Beach

Coastal Construction’s commitment to creating iconic residences is evident in its work on Selene Oceanfront Residences on Fort Lauderdale Beach. The firm dedicated considerable time to building a strong foundation before progressing vertically. The foundation pour was completed in September 2023, utilizing over 3,300 cubic yards of concrete for both towers. Since then, construction has been progressing rapidly, with Coastal committed to building approximately one new floor per week. The building is scheduled to be topped off this summer, and ready for occupancy in 2025. Prospective residents can rest assured knowing that their future home will not only be delivered on time but also structurally sound to withstand its Florida oceanfront environment.
