Obviously there several types/styles of condominiums, including carriage homes and townhomes, with or without garages. Building styles also vary greatly. Highrises tend to be on the water, on the Gulf of Mexico along the Cape Coral/Fort Myers/Naples coastlines and on the islands of Sanibel and Captiva. Downtown Fort Myers also has some new highrises on the Caloosahatchee River. Square footage ranges anywhere from under 1,000 square feet to over 3,500 square feet.
