General Characteristics: Street network The roadway network in the sub-area generally follows a grid-iron pattern.

There are several deviations from the network as a result of waterways, such as the Intercoastal waterway, natural features and parks, and a few modern gated or walled subdivisions.

General Characteristics: Demographics Demographics

The population density along Federal Highway was moderately high and declined toward the eastern part of the sub-area in the northern blocks (A1F6-C3I9).

The population density of the coastal area is almost double that of Federal Highway area (blocks F6F6 vs. F6I9).

The minority population density was highest in the blocks along Federal Highway with the highest rate being 28.8% in block A1F6.

General Characteristics: Suitability Suitability Analysis Results

•Pedestrian and Bike Suitability: most of the “somewhat suitable” blocks are located along Federal Highway.

•BCT Corridor Suitability: most of the “Suitable” blocks are along Federal Highway - E5F6 (Young Circle), and F6F6, and D4I9 (Hollywood Beach)

SWOT Analysis

SWOT Analysis: Strengths Strengths

Very strong grid pattern in blocks along Federal Highway with minor exceptions due to golf club and school interruptions

Great infrastructure along Hollywood Blvd. and Sheridan St. including safe-bike lanes

Hollywood Blvd. serves as a landmark and gateway to the beach. It has wide sidewalks along both sides of the road and very nice landscaping

TOD friendly parking along Young Circle

Young Circle Area has some mixed use development present

Promotion of activity along Young Circle encourages pedestrian traffic

Revitalization Efforts along Young Circle have served as a resurgence of new development

Blocks are potential TIF districts

The CRA has continuous efforts to revitalize and redevelop major commercial corridors, such as Hollywood Blvd and Federal Highway

Hollywood Blvd. = Gateway to the beach

SWOT Analysis: Weakness Weakness

Street block dimensions are around 200 by 600 feet. 600 feet exceeds the dimension for a walkable neighborhood

Federal HWY and Sheridan St are not pedestrian friendly

Lack of connectivity between structures and uses along Federal HWY and Sheridan The overall land use mix is not appropriate for TOD.

There are many underutilized parcels. Low density motels are a dominant feature along Federal HWY

Historical Designations of the area do not support TOD development.

Residential Densities in the area do not meet minimum requirement for 30 min. bus service

Hollywood City-Wide Master Plan Historical Designations

Typical Low Density Motel along Federal HWY Underutilized Parcel along Sheridan St

SWOT Analysis: Weakness Weakness

Bus Stops along Hollywood Boulevard and Federal Highway do not have appropriate seating and rain shelters (ex. Young Circle)

Crime/Safety is a main issue for pedestrians

Several number of small and large commercial parcels are visually unattractive, contain insufficient parking, landscape and poor buffering from adjacent residential neighborhoods

Gated communities cause a splintering effect on the urban fabric within residential areasVisually Unattractive Commercial Parcels along Federal HWY

Master Plan

SWOT Analysis: Opportunity Opportunity

Potential Parcels for redevelopment like the truck leasing facility along the southeast corner of Federal HWY and Sheridan

Installation of bike lanes along Sheridan St. and Hollywood Blvd. to attract visitors

Area is part of Regional Activity Center

Potential for landmark bus shelters along roadways and within site

Area supported by CRA funding

Possibility of Affordable Housing

Potential for more high intensity development along Young Circle

Potential Parcel for Redevelopment

More high intensity development along Young Circle

SWOT Analysis: ThreatsThreats

Limited roadway widths pose threat to the provision of new bike lanes within low density residential area

There are multiple regulatory agencies involved in planning (Broward MPO, FDOT, Hollywood)

Implementation of BRT along Federal Highway required a clear unobstructed pathway and prioritizing in traffic as well increase in speed limit for buses that could put threat on pedestrian activities

Continued recession could limit new investment and availability of funds for infrastructure

Areas falling under historical designations have expressed interest in maintaining low density single-family housing in the future

Location in the Coastal High-Hazard Area limits the potential for residential development along the beach areas

Hollywood Blvd.

SWOT Analysis: General RecommendationsRecommendations

R1 Retrofit or Redevelop strategic parcels along Sheridan St. and Federal Highway with TOD.

R2 Allow for TOD appropriate uses (daycares, services, and eating establishments), increase density and redevelop and retrofit properties along the Federal Highway corridor.

R3 Develop housing directly adjacent to commercial corridors that require higher densities and on-site transition to lower densities.

R4 Improve transit facilities at Young Circle. Add bus shelters throughout the sub-area.

R5 Continue pedestrian-friendly character from Downtown through Federal Highway in order to create pleasurable walking experience and create a unique sense of place for Federal Highway and surrounding neighborhoods.

R6 Enhance the pedestrian realm of the Broadwalk through better landscaping, lighting, and buildings opening up to the Boardwalk. Discourage pavement and parking facing the Boardwalk.

R7 Expand the Community Redevelopment Agency along the Federal Highway corridor in order to provide incentives for redevelopment

Block: D4I9 Block Level Recommendation

• Potential for Community Hub

• Pedestrian appeal of the “Broadwalk” should be enhanced through better landscaping, lighting, and building opening up to the Broadwalk. Discourage pavement and parking that faces the Broadwalk

• Improve landscaping along roadways to reduce deferred maintenance look of the area

• Increase sidewalk density

Sub-Area Conclusions • The Federal Highway corridor is the focal point of future

developments in this sub-area• Sub-Area has three potential sites for transportation hubs

1. Block E5F6- transportation hub on East Young Circle. Young Circle is an attraction for pedestrians and a nucleus of development.

2. Block D4I9- transportation hub along A1A will accommodate visitors to Hollywood Beach

3. Block B2F6- transportation hub on the corner of Federal Highway with possibility of becoming a future anchor hub

• Infrastructure improvements and investments should be prioritized for the three blocks mentioned above.

• Encourage higher density and intensity uses along• Improve pedestrian comfort throughout the residential

neighborhoods• Retrofit excessive parking areas to allow for mix uses and

encourage pedestrian activity
