Washington Park Industrial Area Redevelopment Program

Description

The City of Hollywood, Florida is inviting proposals from qualified consultants or consortiums of consultants to undertake a comprehensive evaluation and development of a redevelopment program for the Washington Park Industrial Area of the City of Hollywood. The primary nature of this effort will focus on the industrial area with impacts on adjacent residential properties to be evaluated, incorporated, and described.The Washington Park Industrial Area ("the subject area”) is a local commercial area approximately 160 acres in size, currently comprised of industrial uses geared toward auto-related service, repair and sales, and includes low density residential uses. The subject area is located South of Washington St, East of State Road 7, North of Pembroke Road, and West of SW 56th Ave.This project involves developing a comprehensive Redevelopment Program for the Washington Park Industrial Area that will guide the area’s future growth and redevelopment. This program will address key aspects of redevelopment from the assessment of existing conditions to the creation of an action plan to promote reinvestment and the elimination of blighting conditions. The program should include recommendations for zoning, land use, and urban design as well as an action plan to implement physical improvements, community and economic development, and environmental mitigation. The ultimate goal is to create a detailed Redevelopment Program/Strategic Framework that fosters sustainable redevelopment and property investment to increase property values and enhance community quality of life.  The Redevelopment Program must integrate extensive public input and community outreach, technical analyses, and best practices in economic development and urban revitalization to ensure a cohesive, forward-looking approach to the future of the Washington Park Industrial Area.
