Sixth & Rio Construction Update - June 2025

The condominium complex, Sixth&Rio, located at 501 SE 6th Ave in Fort Lauderdale, which broke ground in March of 2025 continues to proceed with its verticle construction. The construction crews, led by Stiles Construction, have been onsite six days a week and are rapidly making progress on the 94-unit condominium.

After site preparation and foundation work was completed the crews have been quickly adding floors to both the parking garage located at the south end of the building and main living area located towards the northern end of the building. Once the foundation was established the progress has been swift adding a floor every 7 to 10 days. As of May 16, 2025 the crew is finishing the rebar and concrete form work for the 4th floor with an expectation that this floor will be completed before the end of the month. With the building only 8 floors overall it is anticipated that the building will top out some time in July 2025 where the focus will shift to internal construction of the common areas and units.

Sixth & Rio is a mid-rise condominium project developed by Ocean Land Investments, known for several waterfront residential projects in the region. The 94 residences will include a mix of one- to three-bedroom units, penthouses, and townhomes. The project is notable for being the first new condominium development in the Rio Vista area in over a decade.

According to publicly released plans, Sixth & Rio will offer a range of amenities typical for new luxury condominiums in the area, including:

• A rooftop terrace with an infinity-edge pool, cabanas, and river views

• Fitness center

• Resident club room and lounge

• Co-working and conference spaces

• On-site café or restaurant

• Electric vehicle parking

• Flexible rental policy (up to four times per year)

Residences are expected to feature high-end appliances, modern finishes, and floor-to-ceiling windows. Pricing for units reportedly starts in the $800,000s, with larger or premium units exceeding $2 million. The developer has stated that the project is on track for completion and occupancy in late 2026.
