North Beach’s master plan is in the hands of Miami Beach voters
One of the key items on Miami Beach’s upcoming ballot is item #82, which would allow North Beach to move forward on the key facet of a master plan that would revitalize a 10-block district along 71st Street between Collins Avenue and Indian Creek Drive.
The measure, if approved by the majority of Miami Beach voters, would adopt an ordinance increasing FAR (floor area ratio) in the town center zoning districts to 3.5, which would pave the way for a more walkable and dense neighborhood with new public spaces, housing, dining and retail. Mid-rise buildings would be approved up to 125 feet tall, roughly doubling the total building density.
Over 1,000 NoBe residents played a role in guiding the master planning process, which came to fruition with a design by urban planning and design firm Dover, Kohl, & Partners. Check out their 189-page blueprint here.
Among the community leaders supporting the initiative are Miami Beach Mayor Philip Levine, Miami Beach Commissioner Ricky Arriola, former Miami Beach Commissioner Nancy Liebman, and Miami Design Preservation League Executive Director Daniel Ciraldo.
Early voting begins November 2 and Election Day is November 7. Check out the potential transformation with the before and after images below by using the scroller.
