Multiple sources have conflicting data on floor count and height, but they all say around 40+ stories, with a height around 499 ft. I'll just go with CTBUH data for the title.

Bank Of America Provides $84 Million Construction Loan For Fort Lauderdale’s Upcoming Second Tallest Tower
https://floridayimby.com/2021/08/ban...est-tower.html

Construction financing has been attained for Fort Lauderdale‘s upcoming second tallest tower RD Las Olas, a 47-story mixed-use building planned to rise 494-feet above ground, or 499-feet above sea level, addressed as 201 South Federal Highway and 227 South Federal Highway in Las Olas. Bank Of America is providing an $84 million loan to prominent Coconut Grove-based developer the Related Group, working under an affiliate company referred to as RD East Las Olas LLC, to build the tower. CFE Architects is listed as the design architect, with Balfour Beatty as the general contractor.

The Federal Aviation Administration approved the height of the structure back in January of 2021, which is planned to yield over 300 residential units along with approximately 3,200 square feet of ground floor retail, a parking garage of 453 spaces and amenities such as a 10th-floor deck with a clubroom, a health club, a pool and a spa. Related Group purchases the 1-acre assemblage for the project back in 2018 at the cost of $12 million, with the interior lot bound by Southeast 2nd Street on the north, East Las Olas Boulevard to the south and Southeast 5th Avenue to the west.

With financing now attained, ground breaking is imminent and vertical construction for RD Las Olas may occur soon.

Your signature will need some updates within the next quarter. Lots rising for Miami. Maybe combine both cities into the final tally for Miami-Dade?

Fort Lauderdale is going bonanzas. Sharing a lot of the similar success with pre-sales, its looking to be on track to be what Jersey City is to NYC (in this case, Fort Lauderdale to Miami)!

Exciting times! Tampa is also having a pretty large development boom!

Really pleased with this design, they cleaned up the design of the garage. Although the overall tower had some value engineering to it, still came out nice.
