Coconut Grove Station Is Within One Mile of the Heart of the Coconut Grove Village Center, the Dinner Key Recreation Complex and the Coral Way and S.W - ---, . \ n. THE SETTING Located in the C~tyof Miami at the intersection of S.W. 27th Avenue and South Dixie Highway (U.S.1).the Coconut Grove Station is within one mile of the heart of the Coconut Grove village center, the Dinner Key recreation complex and the Coral Way and S.W. 27th Avenue commercial corridors. In the immediate vicinity of the station are two distinct low density resi- dential areas separated from each other by U.S. 1. North of Dixie Highway, the Douglas Park and Silver Bluff neighbor- hoods both contain predominantly Latin populations with average socio- economic characteristics.The Silver Bluff I area is a particularly stable neighbor- hood of well-kept single family homes I I which are predominantly owner oc- cupied, This neighborhood has a rela- tively large number of senior citizens (21 percent over age 65) in comparison to young people (18 percent under age 18) In the Douglas Park neighbofhocd where homes are being converted or replaced by duplex rental housing, a slight decline in average income and neighborhood conditions has occurred since 1970. Some overcrowding of housing is now occurring in this neighborhood as adequate hous- ing in moderate price ranges has be- come increasingly difficult to locate within the City. In the Coconut Grove area. ' !! the population is predominantly white non-Latins, with generally middle and upper middle level incomes and high 1 I educational levels. Most of the residents are homeowners. a trend which is increas- ing with the development of numerous townhouse projects west of S.W. 27th Avenue. Over 40 percent of the house- hdds are made up of only one individual. mast of which are young people living in rental apartments.

The transit station could become proximity to a large local market at Dinner an important means of access to this Key. facility. The intersection of 27th Avenue and U.S.1 Zoning Based upon recommendations of the1974 Coconut Grove Master Plan, several zoning changes have been im- plemented in the station area. These changes were intended to curtail direct auto access to U.S. 1 and to encourage high amenity, mixed-use developments and townhouse redevelopment in the vicinity of Bird Avenue and 27th Avenue. Only a small portion of the development potential of these zones has been realized thus far. North of U.S. 1 more traditional commercial zones (C-I and C-4) and relatively shallow lot depths have constrained the quality and intensity of development. Over one million square feet of additional floor area could be developed in the industrial zone (1-1) along U.S.I. The residential zones (R-2 and R-3A) west of 27th Avenue allow duplex and low density townhouse type structures on multiple lot development. Although there is little vacant land available in these areas, considerable additional devel- opment is possible through conversion of existing single family homes or demolition and replacement of deteriorated struc- tures. Circulation U.S. 1 and S.W. 27fh Avenue are the major traffic routes in the Coconut Grove Station area. Both of these arterials have seg- ments in the vicinity of the transit station currently carrying more traftic than they were designed to handle. Roadway and intersection improvements along S.W. 27th Terrace and S.W. 27th Avenue adjacent to the station are planned to better accommodate the traffic projected to come to the station from the east and west. However, traffic crossing U.S.1 is presently severely llmited by the priority which must be given to U.S.1 traffic, and this condition is not likely to ease in the fo~esxmbleMure. Pedestrian movements across U.S. 1are severely constrained by conflicts with turning vehicles at 27th Avenue and the considerable distance transit patrons would have to walk to reach the signalized pedestrian crossing south of S.W. 24th Avenue. Additional pedestrian linkages between the station and nearby areas will be identified and addressed in the SADD program. The protection of nearby residential neighborhoods from traffic infiltration will be a major concern, due to the lack of major east-west streets directly serving the station and the potential for disruptive traffic spilling over into local residential areas. $uilding Characteristics Most of the bulld~ngsin the stat~onarea 1 are well maintained and tn good struc- tural condit~on,having been built since 1945 when building code regulations became relatively stringent However, In the low density resldentlal areas there remain a significant number of older I. hmes, many of which are of wmd frame construction The overall appearance and condition of properties in the station area is generally better in the stable I single family neighborhood east of 27th Avenue than In the transitional duplex areas to the west, where there is a need for minor maintenance and general improvement to prevent deterioration The reluctance of lending institutions to make mortgage and home improvement loans on these older structures has been a major factor in the process of decline and redevelopment in these neighborhoods. 7 7 I II~'~*+&BMITTED INTO THE awl - huctural Condition 1975 PUBLIC RECORD FOR ITEM~-,IP oN5-d-ol . eve opment Trends 3-'a --ODD: 0 c3ncmc~. ;:,[icun 3 2o a OD"88: Slnce 1970, building activity in the oqrswr 3 8 ~g SUL-J~C 00 .nooo D 8 o Coconut Grove station area has con- ! - - --- ?--------- - sisted primarily of duplex and multi-family residential construction.

Many neighborhoods in our village have undergone extensive development and been transformed over the years. Even though we all understand new development is inevitable, new construction can be achieved in compliance with existing zoning regulations while still preserving the natural tree canopy of Coconut Grove. The subject property is a 6,499SF lot where a 1,205 SF single-family residence was built in 1956. Current work items on the City’s iBuild portal list 2 living units comprised of a 2 story 6000 SF structure in its place. The removal of mature specimen trees goes directly against the intent of Chapter 17 of the City’s Tree Protection Ordinance. In this particular case, a design that preserves the specimen trees and canopy of Coconut Grove in harmony with the future structure is attainable. We request a permit to remove trees, especially the specimen oak located on the property be denied and construction be performed strict compliance with City codes and ordinances.

Wynwood Development Table of Contents 03 Project Overview 15 Conceptual Drawings 17 Location 20 Demographics 23 Site Plan 26 Building Efficiency 29 RelatedISG Project Overview Project This featured property is centrally located in one of Miami’s hottest and trendiest neighborhood, Wynwood. The 60,238 SF site offers the unique possibility to develop one of South Florida’s most ground-breaking projects. There has only been a select amount of land deals in the past few years available in this neighborhood, and it is not common to find anything over 20,000 SF on average. With its desirable size and mixed use zoning, one can develop over 300 units with a retail component. Wynwood has experienced some of the highest rental rates of any area of South Florida, exceeding $3 per SF, and retail rates exceeding $100 SF. As the area continues to grow and evolve into a world renowned destination, it is forecasted that both residential and retail rental rates will keep increasing. Major landmark projects such as the Florida Brightline and Society Wynwood, as well as major groups such as Goldman Sachs, Zafra Bank, Thor Equity and Related Group investing here, it is positioned to keep growing at an unprecedented rate.

  • Life and Times of Dinner
    Life & Times of Dinner Key Gateway to the Americas: The story of modern Miami is intertwined with visions of the city's potential as a link to places far away. Once upon a time, Miami itself was a place far away. One wag said: "If you own both Miami and Hell, live in Hell, and rent out Miami." But not everyone was as inclined to dismiss the place. Industrialist Henry Flagler, a Standard Oil partner of John D. Rockefeller's, saw potential in Aviation Cadets at Dinner Key (Courtesy: History Miami) connecting Southern Florida with points north, south, and east. He pushed his Florida East Coast Railroad down the Florida peninsula just before the turn of the 20th century. The first train entered Miami on April 13, 1896 - the tangible beginning of transportation links that would fuel Miami's future. Fifteen years after the first train, Miami saw its first plane - a Wright Brothers' exposition flight in 1911. The next year, aviation pioneer Glenn Curtiss opened a flying school. Miami was an excellent location for aviation - plenty of nice weather, and not a mountain in sight. With the coming of World War I, a sandy bit of dry land in Biscayne Bay known as Dinner Key became a focal point for naval aviation. Miamians regarded the small island - or key in the local parlance - as a nice place for a picnic, hence the name. The US Navy thought it would be a great place for a Naval Air Station. With some dredging and engineering, the island was converted to a peninsula, with room for hangars, shops, barracks and other accouterments necessary to the job of training aviators and mechanics.

  • Transit-Oriented Hyperdensity in Miami: Year 2100 Kenner N
    Policy Memorandum Tropical Dense[city]:Transit-Oriented Hyperdensity in Miami: Year 2100 Kenner N. Carmody, M.Des Energy & Environments 2019 Problem: This research aims to visualize and better understand future required housing stock necessary to accommodate displaced populations in Miami’s Allapattah neighborhood affected by sea level rise and resultant tidal inundation by the year 2100 (NOAA Office for Coastal Management). Property data, local geography and NOAA sea-level rise projections within this time-scale are used in order to propose greater density in Miami due to lost surface area. This study evaluates the existing spatial capacity and density distribution under current zoning policy, Miami 21. This study reveals that the current zoning code, overlay districts, and Neighborhood Development Zones (NDZ) within the population catchment area of Allapattah are maladaptive. - The spatial analysis in this research assumes a residential occupancy of 1 person per 450 square feet (41.8m2), and floor to floor heights of 14’-0” (4.2m). - The criteria for this displacement assumes intracity relocation within Miami’s urban core, and excludes populations affected outside of the target study area of Allapattah. - This model assumes relocation within a population catchment area in Allapattah at elevations of 6’-0” above sea level and assumes density increases along Miami’s legacy Metrorail system. - This study excludes future population growth from the required future housing scenario. Figures Housing: - Total Population in Allapattah: 58,978 (2010 Census Data); 62,929 (2017 Estimate) - Total Housing Units: 22,255 - Unit Mix: Studio: 3% 1-Bedroom: 8%; 2-Bedroom: 35%; 3-Bedroom: 20%; 4-Bedroom: 17%; 5-Bedroom: 7%; 6-Bedroom: 4%; > 6% - The majority of housing stock in Allapattah predates 1975 and is poorly suited to its geography and climate.
