Flagler 3 in Progresso Village

WGI partnered with Prospect Real Estate Group to transform a 1.3-acre site used as a vehicle salvage yard for almost 70 years into a dynamic mixed-use community with recreational, commercial, and residential spaces. The proposed development consists of a multi-family residential building with structured parking for 167 dwelling units, two of which are live/work units, and approximately 1,500 square feet of commercial space at the height of 11 stories. The site also includes a variety of amenities, including a ground-level dog park and yard games for the residents. The property is located on the south side of NW 7th Street between NW 1st Avenue and the FEC Railroad in the Progresso Village neighborhood of Fort Lauderdale. This site is in the Northwest Regional Activity Center, Mixed-Use East (NWRAC-MUe), which has a master plan with design guidelines.

WGI’s services included site planning, environmental services, civil engineering, traffic engineering, surveying services, SUE services, managing the project, and processing the applications through the City of Fort Lauderdale. The WGI team created a Level II Site Plan and parking reduction order to attain approval for the development plan.

WGI engaged their environmental experts to prepare a soil remediation plan that Broward County approved to ensure the site met environmental standards and was safe for redevelopment. This redevelopment project demonstrates WGI’s capabilities in creating successful development plans for challenging sites. Through WGI’s collaboration with the City and Prospect Real Estate Group, the team created a plan to turn the former vehicle salvage yard into a high-quality mixed-use community.
