This report contains two main elements. The first is to summarize the evolution of concepts and locations for intermodal hubs, or centers, in each of the three City districts through a series of studies and plans spanning over 18 years. The second element is to examine the requirements and potential locations for a North Beach intermodal center, as this type of work has been performed in greater detail over the years for the Middle Beach and South Beach districts. Through this study, the City of Miami Beach is exploring the feasibility of developing an intermodal hub, identified herein as the North Beach District Intermodal Center, in the vicinity of the 72nd Street municipal parking lot, where passengers could access the north/south bus routes to travel to South Beach, Downtown Miami, Bal Harbor, Aventura or other destinations in the county. Like the South Beach and Middle Beach Intermodal Center, the proposed North Beach Intermodal Center represents an important opportunity to truly coordinate transportation with land use to integrate a regional and local transit center into the surrounding neighborhood. The proposed intermodal center will also: 1. Provide convenient transfers for passengers connecting between transit services, includ- ing Miami-Dade Transit (MDT) Metrobus service operated by Miami-Dade County’s Department of Transportation and Public Works (DTPW), existing and future Miami Beach Trolley routes, potential future rail service, and other potential first and last mile transit solutions. 2. Create strong intermodal connections to and from surrounding existing and future neighborhoods, whether passengers are arriving via foot, bicycle, transit, or auto. 3. Design as a facility that is seamlessly integrated into

Findings from this year’s annual study are outlined as follows: • New product preconstruction pricing responded to a slower 2015 selling season. Projects which were 80% or more sold-out by Q1-2015 raised prices on average 5%-15%, and projects which were less than 80% sold out dropped pricing or increased broker incentives, or both, to increase market Millicento share.

  • NW/NE 36Th Street Study Final Report, June 2007
    NW/NE 36th Street Study FINAL REPORT Prepared for: Miami-Dade County Metropolitan Planning Organization (Miami-Dade MPO) Prepared by: Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. Fort Lauderdale, Florida ©2007 Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. Work Order # GPC III-05 June 2007 NW/NE 36th Street Study EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Introduction NW/NE 36th Street is an important east-west mobility corridor in the City of Miami. The corridor is designated as SR 25 and US 27. This corridor and the adjacent areas have experienced unprecedented growth over the past few years, which is expected to continue over the next several years as large projects, such as Midtown Miami, become occupied. However, the positive aspects of redevelopment come with challenges as well. Maintaining mobility at an acceptable level is critical to the surrounding residential communities, employment areas, businesses, and activity centers. The objective of this study was to develop and evaluate mobility enhancement alternatives along the NW/NE 36th Street corridor in the study area bound by NW/NE 54th Street to the north, NW/NE 20th Street to the south, I-95 to the west, and Biscayne Bay to the east. The NW/NE 36th Street Study performs a review of existing and future traffic conditions and makes recommendations on how to enhance mobility in the study area. A primary purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of increased demand on the area’s transportation network and to make recommendations on how to accommodate the increase in future traffic. Study Area The boundaries of the NW/NE 36th Street Study are defined as NW/NE 54th Street to the north, NW/NE 20th Street to the south, NW 7th Avenue/S.R.
