Much work has been done by the communities along the Florida East Coast railway
in anticipation of Tri-Rail Coastal Link passenger service. Many communities have
engaged their citizens in discussions about their vision for the station areas, and
how these station areas can connect to key destinations in their towns. This booklet
is intended to summarize the work that has been prepared to date and provide
information about the development potential for each station area. The book is
divided into five sections:
1. TOD and Tri-Rail provides an overview of the opportunity to implement TOD
along the Tri-Rail Coastal Link corridor.
2. Overview of TOD introduces the concept of TOD, its benefits, and principles for
success.
3. Creating TOD: Station Typologies recommends TOD typologies that can be
applied to stations along the corridor.
4. Proposed Stations provides specific analysis for the stations along the proposed
Tri-Rail Coastal Link corridor.
5. Existing Tri-Rail Stations provides specific analysis for the stations along the
existing Tri-Rail corridor.
TOD Booklet Purpose
iv
Mizner Park, Boca Raton
Riding Tri-Rail is the preferred mode of transportation for many throughout South
Florida. With the addition of the proposed Tri-Rail Coastal Link, this preference will
grow stronger. The Tri-Rail Coastal Link is anticipated to increase access to transit
for thousands of people who live and work along the Southeast Florida Coastline.
More than a means to get from point A to point B, the Tri-Rail Coastal Link capital
investment connects livability, mobility, and transit by expanding the regional
transit network in Southeast Florida. The Tri-Rail Coastal Link provides greater
access to multiple destinations within numerous cities, neighborhoods, and
activity centers between Jupiter in Palm Beach County and downtown Miami. it
also connects the existing Tri-Rail service in the South Florida Rail Corridor along
i-95 to the historic city centers along US 1. Currently, only 16 percent of the jobs
within the region are reachable via transit in less than 90 minutes. With the Tri-Rail
Coastal Link, downtown areas and neighborhoods will now be directly accessible
by regional passenger rail. improved access makes the area more attractive to
businesses and improves the quality of life for residents.
This report explores the potential of the communities served by the Tri-Rail Coastal
Link to leverage the transit investment. They can draw people into their communities
by creating new, vibrant livable places around the transit stations. Known as Transit
Oriented Development (TOD), this walkable, mixed-use development pattern can
transform an auto-dependent place into one with value and character: a place
people want to be.

Seizing the TOD Opportunity
The 28 proposed station locations for the Tri-Rail
Coastal Link on the Florida East Coast Railway vary
significantly in character, creating unique attributes and
market potential for TOD. They also present a variety
of development types, including greenfield sites, low-
density suburban communities, downtown business
districts, and high-density urban development. This
variety provides opportunity, as does the permanent
nature of fixed-guideway transit. Fixed-guideway
transit has significantly greater potential over bus
transit to catalyze development because it is seen as a
permanent investment in a corridor.
The Tri-Rail Coastal Link Station Area Market and
Economic Analysis report indicates that between 2015
and 2025, the station locations have an incremental
value—based on development and unit values—
of approximately $2.66 billion, which equates to
approximately 4,100 additional dwelling units and
8.5 million additional square feet of commercial
development.
To realize this regional benefit, however, the transit
system must have the following key attributes:
•The quality of the train experience must be high
enough that people are willing to leave the
comfort of their automobiles.
•There must be significant time savings realized by
taking the commuter rail train over driving.
•in less developed areas, there must be parking
available at the station sites.
2 Section 1: TOD and Tri-Rail
Within the proposed Tri-Rail Coastal Link corridor, the foundation on which to
build TOD already exists. Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Lake Worth, and Hollywood are
communities built on grids of streets forming the backbone of walkable urbanism.
West Palm Beach, Fort Lauderdale, 54th Street, 36th Street in Midtown Miami, and
downtown Miami all have walkable, mixed-use centers with a variety of housing
choices.
Midtown Miami
increased Desire for
Walkable Urban Centers
Walkable places have a higher value than
places that are non-walkable. A 2012 Brookings
institution study of walkability in the Washington,
DC, region found that on a scale of 1 (completely
non-walkable) to 5 (very walkable), renters would
pay about $300 more for an apartment that scored
a “2” over a “1” and $1,200 more for an apartment
that scored a “5.” Each step on the scale equated to
an 80-percent increase in retail sales and a $9-per-
square-foot increase in office space.Washington, DC
3
Nationally, the market for TOD is strong. More and more people prefer to live in
urban centers that are compact, walkable, and have a mix of uses and services—
the exact type of place that TOD creates. Currently, the demand far exceeds the
supply: according to a 2011 article in The Atlantic magazine, a third of American
households want to live where they can own fewer cars, but less than 10 percent
can find housing in these locations.
Market demand is expected to grow as baby boomers age and younger generations
embrace a more urban lifestyle that does not include rely on owning a car.
According to AARP, by 2030, 20 percent of Americans will be over the age of 65, of
which one in five will not drive. Between 2001 and 2009, the average annual vehicle
miles traveled for young people decreased by 23 percent (based on a 2012 study
by the US Public interest Research Group and the Frontier Foundation). According
to research by the Center for Transit-Oriented Development, by 2030, 25 percent of
people in the rental or housing market will be seeking housing near transit.

What is Transit-Oriented Development?
Transit-Oriented Development aligns transit investments with a community’s
vision for how it wants to grow. Characterized by a mix of uses, more-intense
development, and walkable streets within a ½ mile of transit (a typical 10-minute
walk), TOD promotes activity around the clock and brings potential riders closer to
transit facilities.
TOD enables people who live and work there to walk more, use transit more, and
own fewer cars than the rest of the larger community. People who live in a TOD are
five times more likely to commute by transit than other residents. Locations next
to fixed-guideway systems, such as Tri-Rail corridors, also maintain land value as
experienced during the recent recession.
Benefits of TOD
Communities can make significant progress toward improving their quality of life by
linking transit and land use. TODs increase mobility choice and reduce transportation
costs. By creating “activity nodes” linked by transit, TOD creates more options for
travel, especially for those who cannot or choose not to use a car. Residents living
in transit-rich neighborhoods spend 16 percent less on transportation than those
living in auto-dependent neighborhoods—according to a study by the Center
for Transit-Oriented Development—saving an average of $9,500 per household.
Since transportation is the second-largest household expense, the reduction in
transportation costs effectively increases disposable household income.
TOD increases health benefits and public safety by making walking more
convenient than driving and providing infrastructure that supports walking and
biking. According to recent studies, people who live in neighborhoods within
an easy walk of shops and businesses are 7 percent less likely to be obese. The
increased activity provides “eyes on the street” throughout the day and evening,
thus helping to increase safety for pedestrians, transit users, and others.

Principles for Successful TOD
Planning and implementing successful TOD involves many small decisions that directly influence the land
use, circulation, urban form, and overall performance of a place. Six basic principles define the essential
characteristics of successful TODs. While these principles should be applied to create a transit-supportive
environment surrounding each of the station areas, TOD must be customized to be compatible with a
community’s character and aspirations.
1
Medium- to high-
density development
Density is about scale, with
the goal of creating a compact
walkable district. TOD has a higher
net average density than the
community average, with highest
densities located closest to the
transit station. Higher densities
increase ridership by providing
access to more people, and create
an active place where people want
to be.
2
A mix of land uses
Concentrating a mix of land
uses creates an interesting place
with a variety of destinations
allowing people to live, work,
and play in the same place. A
transit-supportive environment
includes a mix of residential,
commercial, service, employment,
and public uses. Employment uses
should be located closer to transit:
people are willing to walk further
to get to their homes.
3
Compact, high quality
pedestrian-oriented
environment
Every transit trip starts and ends
with a pedestrian trip. “Calming”
streets by reducing traffic speeds,
activating the street with active
ground-floor uses, and adding
amenities—storefront windows,
awnings, architectural features,
lighting, and landscaping—help
create a comfortable pedestrian
environment.
8 Section 2: Overview of TOD
4
An active defined
center
Defined centers create an 18-
hour place by offering multiple
attractions and reasons for
pedestrians to frequent the area
both day and night. Centers must
have both a dense mix of uses and
a sense of place and community
so that people choose to gather
there. A cohesive, active center
can be created by planning TOD
as a district rather than individual
projects.
5
Limited, managed
parking
Abundant and inexpensive
parking motivates people to
drive rather than use transit. By
creating a more managed parking
supply and moving parking from
surface parking lots to on-street
parking and structures, residents,
shoppers, and employees are
encouraged to use transit and
to walk once they reach their
destination.
6
Public leadership
The public sector must lead the
TOD effort before the private
sector is willing to commit time
and money. Public leadership is
needed from when a station area
is being developed throughout
the life span of the station area.
A collaborative and enabling
approach—with the use of new
innovative tools to complement
and enhance planning
efforts—makes for successful
implementation.
9
TOD Timeline
TOD is an evolutionary process: development in the right form, function, and location does not occur
overnight. Planning begins well before transit construction is underway and service commences. it can
take years, sometimes decades, for planning and development to achieve high-performing TOD. Generally
speaking, there are five key phases involved in creating successful TOD. TOD planning and development
should progress at the same pace as the planning and development of the transit project. As the certainty of
the transit investment increases, so should the strength of the planning.
When a region and its
communities decide to pursue
high-capacity transit, the TOD
discussion should also begin. A
public discussion focused on the
question, “How do we want to
grow and how can transit help
us get there?” can help identify
important places to serve,
opportunities for redevelopment,
and potential station locations.
An overall TOD corridor vision
and strategy can help define
the different roles each station
will play in the corridor (i.e.,
employment district, health care
focus, etc.). This coordinated
approach will help ensure that the
station area visions complement,
rather than compete, with each
other so the full economic
development potential of the
overall corridor can be reached.
With TOD, one size does not fit
all. TOD plans can specify details
about desired land uses, density,
urban form, and pedestrian
amenities—all elements to
facilitate and encourage the use
of transit as well as creation of
high quality, desirable places.
ideally, TOD plans and associated
guidelines are adopted into
land use policy and require
future development to be
consistent with TOD principles. An
implementation strategy should
be part of TOD plans and provide
a road map on how to make the
plan reality, including roles and
responsibilities of various partners.
Before the Plan The TOD Plan1 2
10 Section 2: Overview of TOD
As transit infrastructure
construction begins (platform,
stations, and tracks), additional
public realm station area
improvements, such as pedestrian
crossings and connections near
station platforms, should also be
made. By enhancing walkability
and supporting future TOD, these
public improvements lay the
groundwork for assuring easy
access to transit stations. Although
some improvements may not
be considered TOD supportive
on the surface, such as surface
parking, they facilitate future
TOD as the market matures. it is
also during this phase that TOD
implementation begins in full
force, through TOD regulations
and incentives, and identified and
prioritized TOD opportunity sites.
Public
improvements
near the Station3
As the transit line matures,
interest in development along
and near the line will likely
increase. Government and its
partners will need to take the lead
in managing and encouraging
TOD to ensure that development
consistent with TOD principles is
built. Regulations, incentives, TOD
pilot projects, and the provision
of public amenities, such as parks
and streetscape improvements,
can promote TOD and high quality
station places where people want
to live, work, and play.
As TOD districts reach build-
out, there will be instances
where additional mixed-use/
residential infill, redevelopment,
parking structures, pedestrian
improvements, and open space
are desired. Although government
and non-profit partners will still
have a role in implementing TOD,
more specialized TOD developers
will emerge, broadening the
pattern of TOD throughout the
corridor.

TODs should be thought of as groupings of projects within ¼ to ½ mile (a five- to
ten-minute walk) of a transit stop, oriented inward to the transit stop, with uses
that complement each other, rather than a single building. Grouping projects into
TOD districts or station areas creates active places. Within the corridor, the function
and size of each station area should complement each other. Not all stations will
be able to serve as a major retail destination, for example, without diluting retail at
all the stations.
Station typologies are one way to think about the type of development appropriate
at each station given the larger corridor context. The following typologies suggest
a different scale and mix of uses, resulting in a different function and form for each
station area along the corridor. Five station typologies are identified in the Florida
Department of Transportation (FDOT) South Florida East Coast Corridor (SFECC)

City Center
Key Characteristics
•High density: Distinctively designed high-density buildings near stations serve
as identifying features and contribute to the quality of the city skyline.
•A mix of uses: A horizontal and vertical mix of uses that include office or
residential above retail spaces with continuous façades that align to the build-
to-line.
•Compact, high-quality, pedestrian-oriented environment: Highly active
and clear pedestrian paths are defined by street amenities and transparency of
building frontages.
•Active defined center: Taller buildings extend above the street wall (i.e.,
buildings that frame the pedestrian zone), but do not impede the comfortable
pedestrian scale it defines.
•Limited, managed parking: Structured parking should be integrated into
development. Parking ratio maximums should be based on proximity to
station.
•Urban parks and open space: Programmed environments with pedestrian
amenities encourage community interaction and gathering places for large
groups.

15
Town Center
Key Characteristics
•Moderate-high density: Scale of density should fit into existing community
and include destination retail with housing.
•A mix of uses: Mostly residential with local-supporting commercial and
employment uses. Architecture should reflect existing environment.
•Compact, high-quality, pedestrian-oriented environment: Amenities such
as lighting, signage, and street trees frame the pedestrian zone and separate
vehicular traffic.
•Active defined center: Calm streets by using a variety of paving and make the
streets smaller to create a place for people not dominated by vehicles.
•Limited, managed parking: On-street parking should be provided. Some
structured parking should be integrated into the development, while surface
parking should occur behind the development.
•Urban parks and open space: Programmed spaces for active and passive uses,
such as town plazas or neighborhood parks, should be a priority.

16 Section 3: Creating TOD: Station Typologies
Neighborhood Center
Key Characteristics
•Low density: Neighborhoods offer single-family attached or detached housing
stock, with some multi-family housing units.
•A mix of uses: Primarily residential with periodic small-scale local retail uses.
•Compact, high quality, pedestrian-oriented environment: Lighting, paving,
and secondary access from main road offer safer places for pedestrians.
•Active defined center: Community centers, schools, and recreation facilities
help to stimulate a pro-active neighborhood.
•Managed parking: Angled or parallel on-street parking can help mitigate
overflow from parking in the neighborhood and create clear paths to and from
retail and residential development.
•Urban parks and open space: Larger-scale public space can offer a variety
of uses (such as recreation fields, community gardens, picnic amenities, etc.)
within a centralized location.

Employment Center
Key Characteristics
•Moderate to high density: various scale of density that is scaled to fit into the
surrounding area but also defines the area according to the type of business or
services offered.
•Mix of uses: Primary use typically consists of commercial office, medical,
government, or retail with little or no residential use.
•Compact, high-quality, pedestrian-oriented environment: Active and clear
pedestrian paths are defined by street amenities and transparency of building
frontages.
•Defined center: Restaurant or retail uses are mixed with an employment area
that offers dining, retail, and hospitality services.
•Managed parking: Structured parking should be integrated into development.
Parking ratio maximums should be based on proximity to station.
•Open spaces: Programmed, landscaped, and streetscaped environments with
pedestrian amenities encourage community interaction and gathering.

The following pages summarizes the proposed 28 station areas in the Tri-Rail Coast-
al Link corridor. A land use typology was applied based on a vision for each sta-
tion area as identified by stakeholders during public planning efforts. The visions
describe future areas of change, access and connectivity improvements, and the
future urban form of the station area. The future economic impact of the proposed
station is also shown. The station area today is described as well.
The proposed Tri-Rail Coastal Link stations have different forms, functions, and
characteristics within their respective communities and the larger region. The ty-
pologies and station area summaries reflect these differences. in addition, the sta-
tion areas are in varying stages of “readiness” to become successful TODs. Some are
more suburban in character, while others are more urban. Others serve to support
major regional destinations and are as fully developed as they will ever be.
As the Tri-Rail Coastal Link project moves from planning to design to construction
and finally to operation, the creation of transit-supportive communities will also
progress as described in the TOD Timeline (page 10). Taking the next step to move
the TOD station area visions from planning to implementation can be enhanced by
developing a cohesive, regional strategy to support local actions.

Strengths and Opportunities
•Significant residential development
within walking or biking distance
of the station area could support
businesses at the station.
•Jupiter Medical Center (the
town’s largest employer) has infill
opportunities on its property.
•Strong redevelopment potential,
based on low-value existing land
uses, and large tracts of vacant land
exist adjacent to and within ¼ mile
of the station, especially along Toney

along Toney Penna Drive.
Weaknesses and Barriers
•Existing development (light
industrial, warehouse, strip
commercial, and low-density
residential) is not transit supportive.
•Access from east of the station is
constrained by Highway A1A due to
its size, vehicle speeds, and lack of
pedestrian amenities.
•Limited redevelopment potential
east of the station, as the area is

Future vision
Centered on Jupiter Medical Center, the Toney Penna Station area will
enhance Jupiter’s current reputation as a great place to live, work, and
play by providing additional opportunities for housing and employment
diversity and increasing regional connectivity.
•Pedestrian-friendly commercial and residential development and the Jupiter
Medical Center will bring transit riders and generate activity around the station.
•The intensity of buildings will be greatest closest to the station with 3–4 stories
and taper to 2- to 3-story buildings to blend into the surrounding built context.
•New employment opportunities will support the medical center as well as
other professional offices.
•A structured park-and-ride facility for commuters arriving by car to this end-of-
line station will be easily accessible from the regional connector of i-95.
•On evenings and weekends, the parking facility will support small-scale
commercial uses in the station, making it a truly vibrant place to live and work.

•Significant vacant/underutilized
parcels near station site and west of
Dixie Highway provide opportunities
to spur development around the
station area, including:
Ř Three acres directly west of the
station.
Ř Sixteen-plus acre parcel with
planned large-scale mixed-use
development near station.
Ř infill opportunities along Dixie
Highway south of 38th Street.
Ř Thirteen acres of low-density/
potentially underutilized
development north of the station.
Ř There is an existing Community
Redevelopment Area (CRA) Plan,
and implementation efforts are
well underway.
Weaknesses and Barriers
•Warehouse uses along the east side
of Dixie Highway create barrier for
the residential uses east of Dixie
Highway to access the station.

Future vision
The City of Oakland Park will proactively implement its CRA plan to create
a new, walkable downtown for city residents, employees, and visitors
centered on the proposed station.
•12th Avenue redevelopment will create a place people want to be with multi-
story buildings, ample room for pedestrians to move around, and colonnades
containing shops, offices, and apartments that will front the street.
•11th Avenue will be enhanced as a main street with public improvements and
new design standards.
•38th Street and Dixie Highway will be redeveloped into a landmark mixed-use
project that draws people off the train and into the community.
•A new city park—including an amphitheater, multiuse portico, and parking—
will provide a civic landmark in the station area.
•New pocket parks in the downtown will provide a series of places for people to
gather and children to play.

The overall goal of the Hallandale Beach Citywide Master Plan

public realm enhancements to encourage desired economic
growth and achieve the vision of a pedestrian-oriented urban
environment previously articulated by the City.

September 2007 to review project process, protocol, and sched-
ule; identify and review all available relevant existing information
(including information on approved and anticipated private sector
development projects); and obtain comprehensive City input.
The next step was to conduct multiple site visits to each
neighborhood of the City to review current development patterns
and land uses, economic and market factors, parking, pedestrian
facilities, key gateways and corridors, character, and sense
of place, and to develop a photographic inventory of existing
conditions.
Work then began on an analysis of economic and demographic
factors including population, employment, income, real estate
activity and trends, household size, and other relevant economic
factors identified.
EDAW also began creating a three dimensional model of
the City which included all existing buildings, approved new
developments under construction, and approved and planned
developments.
Further analysis continued with a series of meetings in
November 2007 with stakeholder groups identified by the
City including residential, commercial, civic, religious, and
homeowners groups as well as key developers.
In October, November, and December of 2007, EDAW staffed
an office in the ground floor of the Hallandale Beach City Hall
building on Tuesdays to encourage input from residents who
were interested in learning more about the Master Plan.

Hallandale Beach town Center
The City has historically lacked a “downtown” or recognized
center of economic and civic activity. The highest residential
concentration has been found in the beachfront towers along AIA
while the highest commercial density has been the strip malls
and office buildings along east Hallandale Beach Boulevard.
Perhaps the single most important Master Plan initiative is
the proposed creation of a new primary mixed-use Town
Center around a new Bluesten Park anchored by Government
Center, Gulfstream Village, and a future South Florida Regional
Transportation Authority (SFRTA) commuter rail station on the
FEC corridor. The Town Center will build upon the private sector
retail center being created at the Village of Gulfstream Park, as
well as the existing government and civic complex. The Town
Center will include redeveloped Hallandale Beach Blvd. and
Federal Highway intersection properties, new mixed-use 4 to
5 story buildings facing the park, higher density buildings on
the west side of Dixie Highway around the future SFTRA stop,
and the extension of the western two blocks of S.E. 2nd Street
east to N.E. 14th Avenue as a new axis for redevelopment. The
new Hallandale Beach Town Center Park will serve as a focal
point for the surrounding new development. The park will be
urban rather than suburban in design, with passive uses and
spaces emphasized over recreational fields, and will serve as a
major green space for the City, providing shared civic space for
everyday use, special events, and weekly activities like a farmers
market.

Future vision
The quality of life for residents will be enhanced with transit access to
the mixed-use activity centers in the 125th Street Station area. Anchored
by Johnson & Wales University, the 125th Street Station will connect the
region to North Miami’s commercial spine at 125th Street.
•Within ¼ mile of the station area, mixed-use and higher-density residential is
planned along Biscayne Boulevard, NE 6th Avenue, and NE 125th Street.
•Mixed-use development will create an activity center along West Dixie
Highway, NE 6th Avenue, and NE 125th corridors with complete live, work, and
play environments.
•A mixed-use TOD at the transit station will create a gateway to announce the
arrival in North Miami.

Miami expansion as downtown areas to the south have been built out. This
area’s redevelopment plans anticipate and will support this growth.
•Overtown will continue to be a regional destination, with public open space for
cultural and entertainment activities.
•Enhancements to the urban environment and the introduction of a wider mix
of uses to the Overtown area will create a more walkable, vibrant place with
restaurants, bars, clubs, and shops to complement the existing cultural and

The South Florida Regional Transportation Authority (SFRTA) provides Tri-Rail
commuter rail service between the Miami international Airport Station in Miami-
Dade County and the Mangonia Park Station in Palm Beach County. There are 18
Tri-Rail passenger stations in operation within the 72-mile rail corridor at an average
spacing of approximately four miles.
Since opening in 1989, Tri-Rail’s ridership has been steadily increasing and now
averages about 16,000 passengers per day (or more than 5 million passengers each
year.)
The weekday schedule begins at 4:00 a.m. and ends at 11:05 p.m., operating
20-minute headways in each direction during both the morning and evening
peaks, including 30-minute headway transitions between the 20-minute peak
headway service and the hourly off-peak service. Service includes 50 one-way trips
each weekday and 30 one-way trips on Saturday and Sunday.

Bus/Shuttle Connectivity Palm Tran Routes 61 and 62
Transit Oriented Development Activity Low
On the south side of Lake Worth Road between Holiday Drive
and I-95 lies the Lake Worth Station. A noise barrier separates
the station from a mobile home park to the west, but the
neighborhood can still access the station via a portal. In the
immediate vicinity of the station, existing land uses are
residential (single and multi-family housing) and public (Lake
Worth High School). In addition, industrial uses are located
northwest of the station.
Parking is located underneath an elevated section of I-95 and at
an adjacent overflow parking lot.
TOD Activity: Low. Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council
completed a charrette in June 2008 which addressed current
and future rail activity within Lake Worth. The adjacent mobile
home park is viewed as a long-term redevelopment possibility.
There is also a desire for better conections to Palm Beach
Community College, located approximately one mile to the
west.
The Lake Worth station ranks 3rd in population and 17th in
employment. The station area’s population is 13, 173 and the

Parking Capacity 324 park-and-ride parking spaces, 5 “Kiss and Rde” spaces
Bus/Shuttle Connectivity Palm Tran Routes 70 and 71
Transit Oriented Development Activity None
The Boynton Beach station is located at the northwest
quadrant of the interchange of I-95 and Gateway Blvd. Industrial
land use is prevalent north of the station, and there is a mix of
new land uses west and south of the station, as this area is part
of the Quantum development of regional impact (DRI). These
uses to the west and south include commercial, residential, and
some retail. Low and medium-density housing units are located
to the east of the station across I-95, but there is no direct
access available across the Interstate.
TOD Activity: None. No TOD plan is in place. However, the
office building containing the Children’s Services Center of Palm
Beach County was recently completed immediately south of
the station, and is compatible with future transit oriented
development. The area immediately west of the station,
including the parking lot and vacant land leading to High Ridge
Road is seen as a strong possibility for future TOD.
The Boynton Beach station ranks 4th in population and 18th in
employment. The station area’s population is 12,994 and the
station area employs 1,178 people.

sidewalk network that does not ideallyconnect to the train
station.
TOD Activity: None. No TOD activity is currently taking
place at the Pompano Beach station. The existing (east) and
additional (west) parking lots are both viewed as long term
TOD possibilities. There is also the possibility of
development immediately west of Andrews Avenue.

Transit Oriented Development Activity Low
The Cypress Creek station is located alongside North Andrews
Avenue, just north of Cypress Creek Road. The station is tucked
amongst several mid-rise office buildings and parking lots, and
has limited visibility to passersby. Land uses around the station
(and west of Interstate 95) are office, industrial, retail, and
residential. Office tends to be the predominant use, but other
noteworthy facilities include multiple hotels and a university’s
small satellite campus.
Tri-Rail parking is currently provided at a large park-and-ride lot
on the east side of North Andrews Avenue containing 556
spaces. Parking in this lot requires a walk of over 1/4 mile
to/from the station platform and an at-grade crossing at North
Andrews Avenue.
TOD Activity: Low. As part of a public/private partnership with
the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), a private
developer is proposing a new mixed-use development for the
site of the current park-and-ride area, which is owned by FDOT.
This TOD is slated to have approximately 700,000 square feet
of office, a hotel with up to400 rooms, and a small amount of
retail. SFRTA also added 268 parking spaces in a new lot
immediately west of the station.
The Cypress Creek station ranks 8th in population and 2nd
in employment. The station area’s population is 10,483 and
the station area employs 6,902 people.

Transit Oriented Development Activity Low
The Fort Lauderdale station is located just south of Broward
Blvd. and immediately west of I-95. The Station is a shared facility
used by Tri-Rail and Amtrak that contains vast
park-and-ride facilities and can be accessed directly from
I-95 via convenient high-occupancy vehicle ramps. Three
separate parking areas make up the facility: a lot immediately
west of the station, a second lot northwest of the station, and a
third distant lot located on the north side of Broward
Boulevard. Tri-rail passengers utilize the two closer lots,
although the closest has 33 spaces designated for Amtrak use.
The Fort Lauderdale station area has existing residential,
office, industrial and retail land uses. The employment density
becomes very high just to the east of the station, as the station
is just outside the fringeof the Fort Lauderdale CBD.
TOD Activity: Low. A large mixed-use project is proposed
adjacent to the Fort Lauderdale station. Riverbend is a proposed
development of region alimpact (DRI) that would utilize the
park-and-ride lot north of Broward Boulevard and other
assembled parcels farther west along Broward Boulevard.
Plans call for office retail, hotel, and residential uses.
The Fort Lauderdale station ranks 5th in population and
16th in employment. The station area’s population is 12,948
and the station area employs 1,543 people.

Route E, 22, 77, 95, 246, 277 and 95 Express
Transit Oriented Development Activity Low
Situated near the complex interchange of Interstate 95, the
Palmetto Expressway and State Routes 7 and 9, the Golden
Glades station is accessible from several major highways. The
station is one component of the sprawling Golden Glades
park-and-ride facility, which contains a total of 1,146 parking
spaces for bus riders, carpool/vanpool users, and Tri-Rail. The
parking lots closest to the Tri-Rail station have 216 spaces.
Land uses within the station area are industrial, commercial, and
residential. Areas to the north and west of the station tend to
be industrial and commercial, while residential uses are located
to the south. However, there is no pedestrian access to the
Golden Glades station from adjacent jobs and homes. SR 9,
ramps to/from I-95, and the railroad tracks serve as barriers
blocking all pedestrian access.
TOD Activity: Low. There is currently no TOD activity at the
Golden Glades station, however a charrette was held on
October 31, 2007 for the site. Any development interest at this
site has tended to be for automobile based uses. Despite the
large number of parking spaces, the Golden Glades park-and-ride
lot is regularly at or near capacity. As a result, FDOT has plans to
add additional parking spaces at Golden Glades in the years ahead
via reconfiguration and construction of parking structures.
The Golden Glades station ranks 9th in population and 7th in
employment. The station area’s population is 9,774 and the
station area employs 3,313 people.

spaces for bus riders, carpool/vanpool users, and Tri-Rail. The
parking lots closest to the Tri-Rail station have 216 spaces.
Land uses within the station area are industrial, commercial, and
residential. Areas to the north and west of the station tend to
be industrial and commercial, while residential uses are located
to the south. However, there is no pedestrian access to the
Golden Glades station from adjacent jobs and homes. SR 9,
ramps to/from I-95, and the railroad tracks serve as barriers
blocking all pedestrian access.
TOD Activity: Low. There is currently no TOD activity at the
Golden Glades station, however a charrette was held on
October 31, 2007 for the site. Any development interest at this
site has tended to be for automobile based uses. Despite the
large number of parking spaces, the Golden Glades park-and-ride
lot is regularly at or near capacity. As a result, FDOT has plans to
add additional parking spaces at Golden Glades in the years ahead
via reconfiguration and construction of parking structures.
The Golden Glades station ranks 9th in population and 7th in
employment. The station area’s population is 9,774 and the
station area employs 3,313 people.

Transit Oriented Development Activity Low
The Metrorail Transfer station is Tri-Rail’s busiest station and
serves as the transfer point for its patrons to connect with
Miami-Dade Transit’s Metrorail system. The station is located
along the north side of NW 79th Street, at its intersection with
East 11th Avenue. Forty-one surface parking spaces are available
at the station.
Land use immediately around the station is industrial and
commercial, and this pattern continues to the north and south
along the railroad tracks. However, uses quickly transition to
residential a few blocks to the east and west.
TOD Activity: Low. Despite being the location where the region’s
two passenger rail systems converge, development activity in the
Metrorail Transfer station area tends to be small scale commercial
and industrial. Access to both rail systems presents strong long
term potential for TOD in this station area. An area plan has been
developed for the neighborhood east of and including the station.
Implementation is being pursued by a local non-profit.
The Metrorail Transfer station ranks 7th in population and 4th in
employment. The station area’s population is 11,290 and the

mover (MIA Mover) will connect. Tri-Rail passengers will be able
to connect to the airport’s terminals via the MIA Mover and will
have another connection to Metrorail at this station. Seven
acres west of the station site may be developed to this concept,
with 1.4 million square feet of mixed-use development. There
are also plans for associated development to take place east of
the Central Station, with up to 4.5 million square feet of mixed-
use development possible.
