DESCRIPTION:
This privately-owned site is located along Oakland Park Boulevard one parcel east of NW 68th Avenue and west of NW 64th Avenue. Currently the site is vacant and does not include a second site adjacent to 68th Avenue. This site is surrounded by B-3 General Business District, and RS-5 Residential Single Family (5 DU/AC). This site is in adjacent to retail, and ½ mile to City Park, Village Multipurpose Center, Village Civic Center, and neighborhood businesses. This highly visible site provides a unique opportunity to introduce new and higher quality rental housing, a quality hotel, and urban oriented retail and offices – and make a clear statement about new investment in the area. By including a 120- room hotel and mixing a small percentage of affordable units with market rate units, including townhomes and one small mid-rise apartment building for a total of 87 units, the proposed project will add a significant number of new residents and visitors and their buying power for nearby businesses. The approximately 12,000 sf of commercial space would include retail and office uses situated along the sidewalk with parking in the rear. To help buffer existing homes, low rise townhomes are positioned on the south end of the site, proposed heights are substantially less than the 250 feet permitted, commercial spaces are limited to the northern portions of the site, and lighting will be carefully designed to minimize impacts to existing homes. Access points onto Oakland Park Boulevard will also minimize traffic impacts inside the neighborhood. Structured parking allows significant open space on the western portion of the site that will also help create community interactions and permit some small events.
