Miami’s
preliminary OK to change zoning and land use in the heart of Wynwood may clear
the way to redevelop an entire block, adding multi-family residences and shops.
A final decision may come this month.
WestdaleWynwood
LLC plans the major mixed-use project between Northwest 30th and 31st streets
and Second and Third avenues. The plan is to construct about 171 residences,
said attorney Steven Wernick on behalf of the developer.
Mr. Wernick
told Miami Today the project will likely include a future mixed-use phase along
Northwest Second Avenue under existing zoning, with ground floor
neighborhood-oriented services and retail that would enhance the existing
commercial corridor.
The
properties fronting Second Avenue owned by WestdaleWynwood are already zoned so
they could be redeveloped for a mix of commercial, office and residential uses
up to five stories, said Mr. Wernick.
The proposed
rezoning would accommodate a mix of residential types and sizes, and provide
for a reasonable transition in scale since the building height would go from
five stories to three on the north part of the block, he said.
