Vertical construction is underway at Velero on the shore of the New River in the historic Sailboat Bend neighborhood in downtown Fort Lauderdale, Fla. 170 yards of concrete was poured today at the four luxury villas with 2 car garages and the concrete block walls will begin starting this week. "More than 63,000 lbs. of structural steel for the foundation, which sits on top of pilings that have been embedded 32 feet into the bedrock, created an unbelievably intense concrete pour," added Stellar Homes Group Vice President Tony Valle.
Velero at Sailboat Bend is an exclusive enclave of four residences featuring 4-bedroom floorplans with 2,290 square feet under air, two-car garages and a private deeded dock for each. The villas are priced from $778,400 and completion is expected by mid-September, 2016.
