Over the decades, University Drive in Davie has become one of Broward’s busiest commercial corridors, with residential, retail and office development. University Drive runs on the west side of the South Florida Education Center, which includes the campuses for Nova Southeastern University, Broward College, Florida Atlantic University, the University of Florida and McFatter Technical College, plus the Miami Dolphins training facility and team offices. HCA also has a teaching hospital approved for the NSU campus.
On the east side of these college campuses, Davie Road has been largely stagnant, with old buildings and vacant lots – until recently.
The Business Journal identified nine projects in the pipeline along Davie Road, from Interstate 595 south to Griffin Road. Three of those have started construction. Most of those projects are centered around apartments, and some include retail space.
