Coral Ridge was primarily developed during the post-World War II boom of the 1950s and 1960s, as Fort Lauderdale transformed from a sleepy beach town into a world-class destination. The neighborhood was master-planned around scenic canals and cul-de-sacs, catering to residents who prized waterfront access and suburban tranquility within city limits. Homes in Coral Ridge range from charming mid-century ranches to contemporary estates exceeding 7,000 square feet. Many feature wide water frontage, private docks, pools, and lush tropical landscaping. In recent years, the area has experienced a surge in new luxury construction, reinforcing its reputation as one of the premier addresses in East Fort Lauderdale.
