Edison Grand Apartments

Luxury Apartment Rentals


Edison Grand Apartments (EG), located along the Caloosahatchee River in Fort Myers, Florida, exemplifies the power of repurposing. Initially, the Amtel Ambassador Hotel and Casino property had been vacant for nearly a decade. In 2015, it was converted into an independent living community for seniors aged 55 and older. Under new ownership by Westside Capital in 2021, the property was completely renovated and transformed into the mixed-use residential community now known as Edison Grand.


A Vision Realized for Luxury Living


Westside Capital Group reimagined the property, converting it into a luxury highrise with 327 one—and two-bedroom apartments. These units are sleek, well-appointed, and built to the highest standards. Edison Grand's prime location in the Historic River District, near Downtown Fort Myers, provides quick access to major roads such as US-41 and MLK Jr Blvd. This ensures that work, retail, dining, and entertainment are easily accessible, making Edison Grand both luxurious and practical.


Living Surrounded by Nature and Culture


Edison Grand offers residents access to Fort Myers' vibrant culture, including a growing culinary scene with seafood and international cuisine. The property is situated along the Caloosahatchee River and provides water sports, hiking, and golfing opportunities. It also offers stunning views of the river’s yacht club, the Edison Bridge, and nearby Fort Myers neighborhoods, fostering community and connection among residents.


Revitalization with a Sustainable Focus


When the property opened as Campo Felice in September 2017, it was approved for a tax rebate of up to $9,726,407 over 19 years. This incentive helped revitalize abandoned structures and increase available living spaces. Since Westside Capital acquired the property in 2021, Edison Grand has undergone extensive renovations, expanding the vision of providing modern luxury living.


Approximately 70% of the original structure was removed and replaced with high-quality materials suitable for a waterfront location. Edison Grand is now marketed as a premier luxury community offering everything needed for a comfortable Florida lifestyle. The property includes mixed-use opportunities for retail, office space, cafes, salons, restaurants, and bars, and a parking garage with over 500 spaces to serve tenants, visitors, and shoppers.


Sophisticated Apartments with Premium Features


Edison Grand offers open floor plans that provide flexibility in furniture and living options. The apartments feature high-end appliances, fixtures, and decor designed to provide lasting enjoyment. Laundry facilities are available on each floor, and two-bedroom apartments include in-suite washers and dryers. The kitchens feature stainless steel appliances and granite countertops, both of which signify quality.


The apartments are enhanced with porcelain wood-grain tile floors and floor-to-ceiling windows, providing expansive skyline and river views. Ample natural light flows through each unit, connecting the indoors with the outdoors. Edison Grand is a pet-friendly community with an onsite dog park for residents’ pets.


A Community Centered on Wellness and Connection


Edison Grand Apartments' amenities foster a healthy and social lifestyle. The 2,200-square-foot fitness center, resort-style swimming pool, jet spa, and ballroom provide spaces for relaxation, fitness, and social gatherings. These amenities support a balanced and fulfilling lifestyle for residents.


Entertainment is also a focus, with a 49-seat movie theater available for residents and guests. The Casanova Bistro Café offers a space for casual dining, while the Bel Fiore Salon & Spa provides beauty treatments onsite. Other community amenities include a game room, library, computer lab, and mail room, ensuring all residents' needs are met.
