1800 N Andrews Ave

A 13-story residential condominium built in 1974, Drake Tower occupies a riverfront site in central Fort Lauderdale. The masonry-and-concrete high-rise contains one- and two-bedroom residences and a mix of traditional and renovated floor plans, including larger end- and corner units and penthouses with extended balconies. Interiors vary by unit: many feature open living/dining layouts, renovated kitchens with stone counters and stainless appliances, hardwood or wood-look tile floors, walk-in closets, updated baths with dual sinks or jetted tubs, and impact-rated windows and sliding doors. Common areas include a renovated lobby, a heated pool and expansive sun deck overlooking the Middle River, a community/rec room, barbecue and car-wash areas, secured bike storage, and laundry facilities provided for residents. The building maintains gated parking (open parking with multiple spots available for some units), on-site property management, and a protected entry system. Exterior amenities include balconies, patios, courtyard and outdoor living areas with lighting and security shutters. The association provides bundled services — premium cable package and sometimes utilities like water/sewer/trash — and enforces a 20% minimum down for purchases. Pet policy is typically limited to small animals (about 20 lbs). Blocks from Wilton Drive, the tower offers immediate access to restaurants, nightlife, shopping, I-95, the airport and beaches, supporting a walkable, amenity-forward urban lifestyle.
