South Beach Redevelopment District
In 1985, the City Council embarked on a mission to ensure that a largely unimproved 350-acre area in the southern end of the city would be developed in a way that would be a physical and economic asset to the community.

The City and its Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) began working with private development partners to make sure the area grew according to a logical land-use plan with the full complement of modern public utilities and services.
Public-Private Partnerships
Since the approval of the South Beach Plan in 1987, the CRA has successfully completed six public-private redevelopment projects.
- Ocean Cay - This single-family, 192-lot residential project involved public land assembly for private
development of the site. - Paradise Key - A 62-lot single-family residential project.
- Rip Tide - A 149-lot single-family residential project.
- South Beach Mixed Use - A 63,000 square foot shopping center and 244-unit residential condominium.
- South Beach Parkway Shopping Center - A 300,000 square foot commercial center.
- South Beach Regional Shopping Center - Another 300,000 square foot shopping center.
