DESCRIPTION:
The site includes 2 parcels, is located at the southwest corner of NW 20th Street and NW 19th Street, is currently vacant, and is used by the City of Sunrise for temporary construction storage. This site is bounded on the north and east by RS-5 Residential Single Family (5 DU/AC) and by B-3 General Business District and I-1 Light Industrial on the west side. This site is ¼ mile from City Park, Village Multipurpose Center, Village Civic Center, retail, and neighborhood businesses. In addition, this site is facing a waterway on the south side giving a potential opportunity for waterfront deck amenities. Zoning to the south in the City of Plantation includes light industrial. This site is somewhat unique in east Sunrise because of its proximity to other industrial and commercial areas and the site’s ability to provide employment opportunities within walking distance. Given the strategic goal of creating such employment opportunities, and in support of the entrepreneurial culture of east Sunrise, the suggested program is for flex commercial spaces that can house a wide variety of business enterprises from small fabrication to warehouses to offices – or any combination of these. Additionally, a small number of live/work townhomes are proposed in support of the employment/ affordability strategies and as a buffer to homes east of the site. Open space for displays or business events is also provided (no outdoor storage is suggested). The 2 parcels should be combined to improve marketability. The proposed site plan creates carefully organized and buffered parallel parking along NW 20th Street to substantially improve conditions along the rear of the existing single-family homes. It also limits building heights to 1-2 stories to minimize visual impact. Finally, the open space and boardwalk help to reposition the canal as a neighborhood amenity.
