The Addison
A guide to The Addison on the Ocean, with its paired beachfront towers, staffed beach and pool program, dining facilities and substantial apartment plans.
The Roebling Research Desk · October 2026
The Addison on the Ocean is a pair of beachfront condominium towers at 1400 and 1500 South Ocean Boulevard, south of Boca Raton Inlet. Its distinguishing feature is a residential service program built around the beach and pool, including dining facilities and beach staff. The setting suits a comparison focused on how much of a daily routine can take place within the property.
The buildings date to the mid-1980s. Their contemporary tower form differs from the Mediterranean architecture found elsewhere in Boca Raton, and the name should not be confused with the city's historic Addison event venue.

Paired towers and residential privacy
The Addison's two towers create several distinct positions within one community. Ocean exposure, the outlook across shared grounds and the relationship to the other building can differ materially. The relevant comparison begins with the apartment's stack and orientation, rather than simply identifying it as a north- or south-building home.
Semi-private elevator arrangements are an important part of the residential character. The number of homes sharing an arrival area, the position of service circulation and the route from parking to the residence help explain how the building functions. These details become particularly relevant when comparing an apartment with a detached house or a smaller condominium.
Plans and renovations
The County records Residence N-505 at 2,792 square feet with three bedrooms and three full bathrooms plus a half bath. That example illustrates the scale of one established plan. It does not capture combined apartments or establish a range for both buildings.
Beach and dining amenities
The property is described with two oceanfront pools, beach and cabana staff, a residents' cafe, a poolside bar, fitness facilities and valet service. The dining component is especially useful when distinguishing The Addison from a building whose amenities are limited to a pool and exercise room.
The practical questions are the services available during the months of intended use, the hours they operate and whether individual charges or minimums apply. Those terms should be considered together with the condominium budget. A convenient amenity is most valuable when its operation matches the owner's routine.
Other beachfront comparisons
Cloister Beach Towers offers a different elevator and apartment arrangement nearby. Aragon and Luxuria provide additional comparisons for larger oceanfront homes. The differences are in service, plan and the experience of the grounds as much as in the age of the building.
