Zoning

The property is located in the General Urban Transect (T4-L) under the Miami 21 zoning code, which allows a mixed-use urban fabric with both residential and commercial opportunities. Current land use is multifamily (2–9 units) with an existing triplex built in 1953. The lot measures 5,400 sq ft (0.124 acre), with an existing building area of 1,748 sq ft.

By-right, zoning allows 36 dwelling units per acre, which translates to approximately 4–5 units permitted on a lot of this size. However, under the Live Local Act (SB 102 / SB 328, 2024 update) the site is eligible for density increases, reduced parking requirements, and waived impact fees, creating a pathway for mid-rise redevelopment. This provides investors with the potential to scale the property to 5 stories and 24 units (~26,000 buildable sq ft), and with proper due diligence and entitlement review, higher allowances could be achieved.

Typical zoning requirements in T4-L include:

  • Minimum lot area: 5,000 sq ft (with rear vehicle access)

  • Maximum lot coverage (ground floor): 60%

  • Minimum green space requirement: 15%

  • Setbacks: 10 ft front, 0–5 ft side, 20 ft rear

  • Density: 36 dwelling units per acre (expandable under SB 102)

The T4-L designation supports a wide mix of uses, including residential apartments, boutique hotel, restaurant/café, offices, daycare facilities, and co-living spaces. This combination of zoning flexibility and SB 102 incentives makes the property an attractive opportunity for value-add repositioning or ground-up development in one of Miami’s fastest-growing urban corridors.
