1700 West Commercial Boulevard, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33309

4,240 SF standalone freestanding commercial building on a 1.885-acre pad at 1700 W Commercial Blvd, Fort Lauderdale — directly across from Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport (FXE) and approximately 0.3–0.5 miles west of Keiser University's Fort Lauderdale campus. Former Wells Fargo bank branch — drive-thru lane and canopy, teller line, safe-deposit viewing rooms, secure back-of-house circulation, and private offices preserved in place.

PROPERTY

4,240 SF single-story building, standalone pad, on 82,098 SF (1.885 acres) of surface parking with 42 stalls (9.91 per 1,000 SF) and ample room to expand parking — one of the largest lot-to-building ratios on the Commercial Blvd corridor. 338 feet of frontage on Commercial Blvd with a monument sign available for tenant identity. Built 1983, renovated 1993. Prior Wells Fargo branch — teller line, drive-thru lane and canopy, safe-deposit viewing rooms, secure back-of-house circulation, private offices, and security wiring preserved from the prior use. Landlord open to funding tenant-specific improvements as part of a long-term lease structure — a real partnership for the right operator rather than a passive as-is lease. Owner willing to build to suit — the existing 4,240 SF pad occupies only ~5% of the 1.88-acre parcel (0.052 FAR), leaving substantial capacity for pad-adjacent expansion or a full ground-up build for a long-term tenant. Site is within Spectrum Park, an established Fort Lauderdale business park (nominal HOA approximately $330 per quarter). Zoning: AIP (Airport Industrial Park District, City of Fort Lauderdale) — supports professional / administrative office, medical / dental / physical therapy office, industrial research operations, and light manufacturing of precision instruments, medical devices, and aircraft components.

VISIBILITY

338 feet of frontage on W Commercial Blvd (State Road 870) — principal east-west arterial carrying approximately 52,000 vehicles per day (FDOT 2024). Standalone tenant identity with monument sign available on Commercial Blvd plus building signage. I-95 Exit 33 less than 1 mile west; Florida's Turnpike less than 3 miles east — dual highway access for regional catchment. For any consumer-facing or executive-services tenant, this is a rare corridor-fronting standalone building in an established retail catchment.
