The Commodore was built by the General Walkem Company of New York City who also developed the first high rise cooperatives in Fort Lauderdale located on the ocean and the Port Everglades inlet entrance channel. The first deed of transfer was filed on January 17, 1966 and the first occupants moved in 3 days later.
On the occupancy date, all but one apartment and one penthouse remained unsold, a true acceptance record!
Sales were promoted from an expansive sales pavilion comprised of two completely furnished model apartments in addition to a wide selection of interior finishes and fixtures available to buyers.
Current sales figures confirm that 1 bedroom units are selling at 7 times their original cost, 2 bedrooms are selling at 10 times and 3 bedrooms are averaging 9 times their original sales price.
An ongoing program of upgrading and modernization, inside and out, continues to perpetuate our increasing property values.
