Prince George
Here is the math that makes Prince George interesting: recent sales around $160 to $185 per square foot, in a city averaging nearly $300. This 20-story, 249-residence oceanfront tower at 1865 S Ocean Drive, completed in 1974, sits directly across from South City Beach Park — which means many units get the park’s green foreground with the Atlantic behind it. It is not a luxury tower and does not pretend to be; it is a doorman building with a pool, secured parking, and Intracoastal-to-ocean views at the lowest beachfront entry price on this stretch of Hallandale Beach.

Prince George Frequently Asked Questions
❯ Why is Prince George so much cheaper than neighboring towers?
Age and simplicity. A 1974 building without the resort-scale amenity program of its neighbors trades at a discount — recent one-bedrooms have closed in the low-$200s. You are buying the location and the view, not the lifestyle package, and the per-square-foot math reflects that honestly.
❯ What is across the street?
South City Beach Park — public beach access, green space, and unobstructed sightlines. Being across from the park rather than behind another building protects the view corridor for east-facing units in a way few older towers can claim.
❯ Is the building secure?
Yes — a doorman building with a secured lobby and elevator, card entry, and secured garage parking. For a value-priced vintage tower, the staffing level is a genuine plus.
❯ What views do units get?
East-facing residences take in the Atlantic over the park; many units also catch Intracoastal views to the west. Upper floors get the full panoramic treatment — the classic Hallandale Beach high-rise payoff.
❯ Can I rent out my unit?
Leasing is permitted and rentals appear regularly — the low purchase prices make the rent math attractive for investors. Minimum lease terms vary under current HOA rules, so confirm the details before buying as a landlord.
❯ What should I watch for in a 1974 building?
The standard vintage checklist: association reserves, special-assessment history, insurance, and concrete-restoration records. Prince George’s appeal is price, so go in with eyes open — prioritize renovated units with impact glass and review the building’s milestone documentation.

Hallandale’s Value Play on the Ocean
Prince George exists for a specific buyer: the one who ran the numbers on new Hallandale Beach construction, winced, and started looking at what $200K–$300K actually buys on the sand. The answer is a spacious 1970s one- or two-bedroom with a real balcony, a doorman downstairs, and the Atlantic across the street. Recent closings — 1,300-square-foot units in the $207K–$232K range — tell the story. It will not impress anyone at a dinner party; it will impress your accountant.
Across from South City Beach Park
The park-front position is Prince George’s quiet superpower: protected views, public beach access steps away, and green space instead of a parking lot out front. North and south along S Ocean Drive sit larger resort-style neighbors — compare with Plaza Towers or Parker Tower — but none match this entry price. City overview: Hallandale Beach.
