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
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
