The EDITION Fort Lauderdale Residences was recently featured in FORBES article titled “New Residential Communities Where Socialization Is A Leading Amenity”.
From the article:
With every passing year, more and more evidence has pointed to the health and longevity benefits socialization can deliver. Interacting with other people can spur an interest in fitness, reduce anxiety and stress and improve cognitive functioning. Social activity is associated with a decreased risk of dementia in old age, and can lead to sharper memory and improved communication and empathy skills.
Many older adults experience greater difficulty forging strong human bonds than they did in their younger years. For that reason, senior living communities have long recognized the importance of encouraging socialization as a means of staving off deterioration of mind and body. That’s why residential settings for older adults urge residents to leave their apartments for dining, book clubs, educational programs, fitness classes, volunteer activities, worship services and even knitting groups.
Post-pandemic, what’s worked for senior residential settings has been embraced more avidly at growing numbers of luxe residential settings catering to all ages. A Forbes Health survey revealed 56% of respondents felt a greater sense of isolation and 29% were more depressed after onset of Covid-19 lockdowns. This kind of evidence has helped convince developers of new luxury residential projects to designate gathering spaces that spark bonding experiences and inspire diurnal social rituals.
Having launched sales this fall, EDITION Residences Fort Lauderdale is a 65-residence community expressly designed for worldly jetsetters. Amenities intended to keep residents socially connected include meditation gardens, an intracoastal riverwalk, a cucina offering eat-in gourmet kitchen for private events, as well as a moonroof providing a nighttime setting for residents to unwind, relax and engage in star gazing.
“Today’s jetsetter has become accustomed to world-class hotel amenities that encourage you to get out of your room and into social spaces activated to your needs,” says Rishi Kapoor, CEO of Location Ventures, the developer of EDITION Residences Fort Lauderdale.
