DESCRIPTION:

The site is located at Sunrise Boulevard and Sunset Strip, a key gateway into east Sunrise. Currently, the site has a vacant building, but the former tenant is still paying rent. This site is surrounded by B-3 General Business District, with RM-25 Residential Multi Family (16-25 DU/AC) nearby. This site is in proximity to interstate highways and ¼ mile to Sunrise Golf Village Park area. Given the importance of this highly-visible gateway site to the image and brand of the entire east Sunrise community, a new signature office building carefully positioned on the corner of the site is proposed. With a major tenant occupying most of the building, a well-designed building with significant signage and quality site amenities will help create an image of new investment, provide new jobs, and help support nearby retail and restaurant businesses. The first floor of the office building will have retail space and outdoor seating to help create vibrancy. Pedestrian amenities will reinforce the walkability of Sunset Strip, and public art, landscaping, and architectural lighting will help tell a new story about east Sunrise. These features will be complemented by nearby public improvements as part of an overall Gateway improvements approach. Note that a standard multi-tenant office building will not have the same impact or likely be financially feasible here given current office market rents.
