About Dania Pointe 

Atlantic American Partners is pleased to annouce our 10th EB-5 offering, Atlantic American Fortune Fund III, LP (AAFF III).  AAFF III is a diversified fund, where EB-5 investors own a porfolio of projects, versus a single project.  This provides diversification of investment and reduces investment risk, much like a mutual fund.  Atlantic American Partners is not a developer selling you our own project – we serve as an asset manager working for you.  We are a team of experienced real estate investors and professional private equity fund managers that manage money for banks, insurance companies, and pension funds, in addition to EB-5 investors.

The first asset in AAFF III is The Residences at Dania Pointe (or the “Project”).  The Project is the first phase of multifamily rental apartments within a 102-acre “Work, Shop, Live, Play” mixed-use community called Dania Pointe, located in Dania Beach, Florida.  The Residences at Dania Pointe will offer 264 class “A” units, housed in an eight-story building.  Amenities will include a central courtyard (with clubhouse, swimming pool, fitness center, and yoga studio), keyless entry, video surveillance and a secure, attached parking garage.

Dania Pointe will be a 102-acre premiere mixed-use development that will offer 1,000,000 square feet of premium retail and restaurant space, 500,000 square feet of class “A” office space, two hotels (300 hotel rooms), 1,000 class “A” rental apartments, luxury condominiums and public park space.  With 1,600 linear feet of frontage on I-95 and immediate proximity to the Fort Lauderdale International Airport, Port Everglades Cruise Ship Port, Dania Pointe’s sophisticated mix of shop, work, live, play and stay options will make it Broward County’s preeminent lifestyle destination.

Phase I of Dania Pointe’s retail space comprises 325,000+ square feet of big box retailers, which is 83% preleased to a variety of national and regional brands including BrandsMart USA, Lucky’s Market, TJ Maxx, Hobby Lobby, and Ulta Beauty, along with several restaurants including Outback Steakhouse and TooJays.  Construction of this retail phase is underway, with an expected opening in time for the 2018 Christmas holiday season.  Construction of Phase II of the retail (475,000+ square feet) is expected to begin in May 2018 and will be situated in a walkable open-air mall format, interspersed with the residential, hotel and recreational components.

The master developer of the overall Dania Pointe mixed use property is Kimco Realty Corp.  Kimco is a real estate investment trust (REIT) that is one of the largest publicly traded owners and operators of open-air shopping centers in the United States.  As of September 30, 2017, the company owned interests in 507 U.S. shopping centers comprising 84 million square feet of leasable space, primarily concentrated in the top major metropolitan markets.  Publicly traded on the NYSE since 1991, and included in the S&P 500 Index, the company has specialized in shopping center acquisitions, development and management for more than 50 years.
