TOD: Examining Development Potential Within Proposed Train Station Area Sheds
Published: January 16, 2020
The Wynwood Business Improvement District (BID) in Miami, FL commissioned this study to identify and address the future mobility needs of the Wynwood/Midtown/Edgewater district. The intent of the study was to explore development capacity within two potential Transit Station Area sheds (areas within a 1⁄2 mile radius of a transit station) to help identify possible transit station locations along the existing FECI Corridor near Midtown Miami.
Use of ZoneIQ
In conjunction with renowned planning firm, Garcia-Pons + Associates, the Gridics team modeled over 200,000,000 gsf of max buildable area in 3D across both proposed transit sites. Examples of feasibility studies from our application can be seen on the right.
Results
Our data and modeling confirmed a 50% higher potential development capacity near the proposed 29th Street Station Area as compared to the 36th Street Station Area.
