When the Fed stops printing it too will come down to earth. Be patient.

From my understanding, the city core of Fort Lauderdale desires to be like downtown Miami, you would just be going back to more of the same. As for over priced condos in the Grove, yeah they are there, but there are also older, more affordable buildings too. I am partial to the Grove though, absolutely love it.

It's a good example of the "smart growth" that we need more of and, IMHO, a total contrast to, say, what's being planned for the Coconut Grove bayfront...
