Parkland and Weston are two of the most talked about communities not only in the Fort Lauderdale area, but in all of South Florida.

On the surface, they look very similar…

But once you break down location, lifestyle, housing, and schools, the differences start to show.

One of these towns fits certain buyers much better than the other.

Comment VERSUS and I’ll send you the full Youtube video breaking down both areas side by side so you can decide which one makes the most sense for you

Fort Lauderdale is moving quickly toward approving a major redevelopment of the Galleria Mall that would replace much of the site with nine 30 story towers containing more than 3,100 rental units, including a large portion designated as workforce housing. The project is advancing under Florida’s Live Local Act, which allows developments to bypass traditional zoning hearings and significantly limits the city’s ability to block or reduce the scale. The city is conducting an administrative review, and once requirements are met, permits are expected to be issued, allowing construction to begin soon despite continued neighborhood opposition.

Do you think this kind of development is the future of Fort Lauderdale, or is it happening too fast?
