Fort Lauderdale, Florida

Fort Lauderdale /ˌfɔərt ˈlɔːdərdeɪl/ is a city in the U.S. state of Florida, on the Atlantic coast. It is the county seat of Broward County. As of the2010 census, the city had a population of 165,521. It is a principal city of the South Florida metropolitan area, which was home to 5,564,635 people at the 2010 census.

The city is a popular tourist destination, with 10.35 million visitors in 2006.^[5] Fort Lauderdale is sometimes known as the "Venice of America"^[6]because of its expansive and intricate canal system. The city is a major yachting center, with 42,000 resident yachts and 100 marinas and boatyards in 2006.^[5] The city sits 23 miles (37 km) north of Miami. Fort Lauderdale and the surrounding area hosted over 4,000 restaurants and 120 nightclubs in 2006.^[5]

Fort Lauderdale is named after a series of forts built by the United States during the Second Seminole War. The forts took their name from Major William Lauderdale, who was the commander of the detachment of soldiers who built the first fort.^[7] However, development of the city did not begin until 50 years after the forts were abandoned at the end of the conflict. Three forts named "Fort Lauderdale" were constructed; the first was at the fork of the New River, the second at Tarpon Bend on the new River between the Colee Hammock and Rio Vista neighborhoods, and the third near the site of the Bahia Mar Marina.^[7]

The Esplanade Condominium - Downtown on the New River

We are a 2 bedroom, 2 bath penthouse vacation rental condo Downtown in Fort Lauderdale on the New River at a place called "Sailboat Bend". (In the picture we are one of the units at the very top of the round building with the little peaked green roof - the Esplanade.) The camera faces "up river" and the tall buildings of Downtown. We have a great website with lots of good information (pictures, calendar, rates, guestbook and more) - check us out and then come stay with us: www.stay-at-the-esplanade.com. It's like staying at a fancy resort: pool, tennis courts, spa, sauna room, exercise room, private free parking, business center, 24 hour front desk service and even a Kayak for the river and bikes for that beach outing. The only thing missing is the fancy prices and small rooms. Your hosts, Ralph & Judy Enderby
