Royal Ambassador, Fort Lauderdale
A structural integrity reserve study (SIRS) is on file with the state for this 214-unit community at 3700 Galt Ocean Dr, completed December 11, 2024 by an engineer (DBPR's SIRS database, as of October 5, 2026).
The association reports 16 floors and a 1979 construction year. The county roll lists 1967 as the year built. If its certificate of occupancy (CO) was issued in 1967, its first milestone inspection would have been due by December 31, 2024 (s. 553.899(3)(a), F.S.). Whether it was done is on file with the local building official. City of Fort Lauderdale Development Services (Permitting Services) applies a 25-year clock inside its limits (its page).
