Broward County is finally getting the attention it deserves. What use to be hailed as a “pass-through community” is now getting recognized as a prime location for redevelopment. “The airport expansion, new hotels, renovations to major thoroughfares and retail areas all bode well for the city,” said Rachel Bach, acting executive director with the Dania Beach Community Redevelopment Agency. The city is estimating more than $150 million in new development in the coming years. The renewed interest in the area comes as no surprise to Bach who claims “location-wise, we’re perfectly situated”.
Dania Beach has been one of those communities that people overlooked as they drove along Interstate 95 in spite of the fact it’s home to Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport, several yachting centers, and an iconic roller coaster. However, developers and city officials have big plans on the horizon for Broward County which include tearing down that iconic roller coaster and building 1,000 apartments, 800,000 square feet of office space, and 1 million square feet of retail and hotels along the interstate.
Nearby, the Design Center of the Americas is also doing a major redevelopment along with the neighboring Sheraton which is being converted to a high-end hotel. To the east, Dania Jai-Alai is currently undergoing a yearlong, $50 million renovation project to bolster its gaming offerings. The well-known “Antique Row” along Federal Highway is also part of a downtown redevelopment project that will refresh the retail presence, but also include Dania Place, a mixed-use condo and commercial development. To the north, the airport recently completed the elevation and expansion of the south runway, and finishing touches are being put on U.S. 1 through the area.
