ONE Fort Myers: Riverfront Condos, Pricing & What’s Left in 2026
Why buying into Downtown Fort Myers now may be one of the best luxury value plays in Southwest Florida.
There was a time when buyers believed in the vision for Downtown Fort Myers but were waiting to see it fully take shape. Today that is no longer the case.
With vertical construction underway and 50% of the building already sold, what was once a vision is now becoming a reality. Downtown Fort Myers is entering a completely different phase, one defined by momentum, development, and real buyer confidence.
Construction is underway with completion expected in 2027. Buyers purchasing now are locking in early construction pricing before the building delivers and the surrounding downtown district continues to take shape. With 50% of residences already under contract, the remaining inventory is moving.
This is not just about buying a condo. It is about buying ahead of a changing downtown. For full floor plan details, pricing, and current availability, visit the ONE Fort Myers condo page.

Downtown Fort Myers Luxury Condos Are No Longer a Future Bet
ONE Fort Myers is moving. Construction has started. Vertical progress matters because once a luxury high-rise moves from idea to execution, the conversation changes. Confidence rises. Perceived risk drops. And the buyers who get in before the surrounding district fully catches up are usually the ones who benefit most.
A Record-Breaking Sale That Changed the Conversation
The momentum in Downtown Fort Myers is not theoretical. It is already happening.
Recently, the penthouse at ONE Fort Myers went under contract for $5.3 million, setting the record for the highest condo sale in downtown Fort Myers history. And I had the opportunity to represent that transaction.
That sale was not just a headline. It was proof. Proof that buyers at the highest level are recognizing the value, the vision, and the long-term potential of this location. When record-breaking sales happen in a market like this, it usually signals the beginning of a new pricing benchmark.
More importantly, it signals a shift in how buyers view the entire downtown corridor. Both penthouses are now under contract. The remaining units sit at price points well below that benchmark, but they benefit from the same location, the same amenities, and the same downtown transformation story.

Why ONE Fort Myers Feels Undervalued Right Now
In luxury new construction, timing matters just as much as product. Right now, ONE Fort Myers gives buyers a chance to enter the luxury market in Downtown Fort Myers at prices that still feel early relative to what is taking shape around it.
Here is where ONE sits relative to comparable markets.
| Market | Product Type | Price Per Sq Ft |
|---|---|---|
| Naples | New luxury waterfront condos | $1,200 to $1,800+ |
| Sarasota | New luxury waterfront condos | $1,000 to $1,500 |
| Bonita Springs / Estero | New waterfront construction | $800 to $1,200 |
| ONE Fort Myers Current | New riverfront high-rise, private elevator, 34 units | Under $1,000 |
That gap does not exist because the product is inferior. It exists because downtown Fort Myers is still in the early innings of its development cycle, and pricing has not yet caught up with the district’s trajectory. That is exactly where the opportunity sits.
For buyers comparing the broader Southwest Florida market, my Fort Myers cost of living breakdown and best Southwest Florida communities guide provide useful context.

The strongest argument for ONE is not just the building. It is the building plus the district. Downtown Fort Myers already has real anchors in place including the Luminary Hotel, the Caloosa Sound Convention Center, and the Caloosa Sound Amphitheater. But the bigger story is what is still coming.
The value story is not just ONE. It is ONE plus everything rising around it.
The Projects That Support the Long-Term Value Story
Project 01
Legacy Harbor + Legacy Island Park
13 acres along the Caloosahatchee River. Phase 1 includes a 131-slip marina under construction and targeted for completion in 2026. Phase 2 adds two residential towers with 377 homes, plus a hotel, parking, retail, and restaurants. Legacy Island Park adds a five-slip dock and walking trails across from ONE near the Edison Bridge.
Project 02
Allure Condominiums
Adjacent to ONE, Allure is planned as two 24-story luxury riverfront towers with 201 for-sale residences. Even if a buyer never purchases there, the project validates demand for luxury high-rise living in this pocket of downtown and supports the pricing story for ONE.
Project 03
Royal Palm Hotel & Residences
This multi-phase project brings 393 hotel rooms, 104 residential units, 347 parking spaces, and 7,000 square feet of restaurant space to the downtown waterfront. More hospitality and food-and-beverage density creates a stronger urban lifestyle environment for nearby owners.
Project 04
Fort Myers Yacht Basin + Lofton Island
The yacht basin redevelopment transforms the city-owned basin into a major marina with up to 380 slips, a waterfront restaurant, a fuel dock, and modern boating infrastructure. Lofton Island adds a beach club and day resort with pools, bars, villas, a white sand beach, and transient marina access.
Project 05
The Irving, Triton Cay & First Street Riverfront
The Irving adds 98 luxury multifamily units. Triton Cay expands with roughly 200 additional units in Phase 2 following Phase 1’s 327 units. First Street Riverfront is planned as an eight-story riverfront development with 221 units and riverwalk connectivity. Greater density supports more restaurants, retail, services, and year-round energy downtown.
Project 06
Additional Hospitality & Mixed-Use Growth
Hilton Tempo, Staybridge Suites, The West End at City Walk, Montage at Midtown, Vantage Lofts, Seaboard Apartments, Gardners Park Grove, and the News-Press mixed-use redevelopment continue to fill in the district with hotel keys, residential rooftops, office space, retail, and public improvements.
Why Walkability and Waterfront Living Are Driving Downtown Fort Myers Condo Values
Luxury buyers do not just pay for interiors. They pay for the ecosystem. Downtown Fort Myers is building something buyers can feel. Not just a tower. Not just a pool. Not just views. A full lifestyle district.
That means walkability to restaurants, bars, galleries, parks, and cultural venues. It means proximity to the convention center and hotels that increase year-round activity. It means marina improvements, boating access, kayaking, waterfront dining, and more reasons for both residents and visitors to actually use downtown.
That is what creates perceived value. And eventually, perceived value becomes pricing power.
The Timing Window Matters Right Now
Buying before a district fully matures is usually where the upside lives. There is a very specific window in every market cycle when the product is real, development is underway, and momentum is building, but pricing has not fully caught up yet.
That is exactly where Downtown Fort Myers sits today. With vertical construction underway and a clear pipeline of development behind it, what was once a vision is now taking shape in real time.
As that progress becomes more visible over the next few years, pricing typically follows. The buyers who recognize that window early are usually the ones who benefit the most.
