ULI Southeast Florida/Caribbean: Development Potential at a Future Deerfield Beach Commuter Rail Station

Résumé du rapport : In August 2021, the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) identified the City of Deerfield Beach as a probable location for a potential future commuter rail station. As part of their efforts to identify the best possible location for the site, the City of Deerfield Beach invited a panel of experts from the Urban Land Institute (ULI) Southeast Florida / Caribbean District Council to study a nine-acre site at the 400 block of S Dixie Highway for its development potential.

The panel found that the site presents exciting development potential for both the landowner and the city. With the potential to deliver transit-oriented development to the city, complete with new residential opportunities, neighborhood commercial space, and multimodal transportation options, it also has the potential to catalyze further development throughout the Pioneer Grove LAC and the greater surrounding area.
