Site Area Description
This site is located at the intersection of NW 7th Avenue and 62nd Street. Mixes of businesses with moderate setbacks are at the sidewalk. The businesses are surrounded by single-family and some multifamily residences. Multifamily residential development is clustered along the west side of Interstate 95. Household densities in this area are generally in the 3.5 to 7.0 per acre range. However, in the zones located along the west side of Interstate 95 south of 62nd Avenue, densities exceed 7.0 per acre. Employment densities are low to moderate, with a few zones located along Interstate 95 in the 12.5 to 25 employees per acre range. The area is served by bus routes 62 and 77. A few vacant parcels and several underutilized parcels may present redevelopment opportunities, but no ongoing development activities are visible in the area.
