 Among these five submarkets Miramar/Pembroke Pines has experienced the most residential development since 2000.  Twenty‐nine percent of this submarkets’ residential stock was built after 2000.  In the County as a whole, 16 percent of the housing stock was built since 2000.  Figure 12: Share of Residential Stock Built After 2000, University Drive Submarkets

 Over the last three years, Plantation has absorbed the most units, with an average annual absorption of approximately 250 units.  One Plantation, a 321‐unit apartment complex, was recently developed in Plantation.  One Plantation commands high rents with a 750 square foot unit renting for $1,600 per month.  Two other projects, the Crossroads (a 287‐unit apartment complex) and the Manor (181 rental units) are under construction in Plantation.  To develop new apartments with structured parking, a developer must achieve a rent of at least $1,500 per month.  High‐rise construction requires even higher rent because it is more expensive to develop.  Apartment developers will seek locations that have a proven track record in achieving such rents.    The following graph illustrates highest rent (95th percentile) and number of properties achieving such rent in each of the submarkets.

 Given market data and household projections Miramar and Pembroke Pines have apartment development potential, however, on University Drive the opportunities are limited.  There is one site on the southwest corner of University Drive and Plantation Boulevard that could be developed as apartments.  Additional development on University Drive would require that existing land uses be redeveloped.  Given the economics of redevelopment and the availability of land to the west of University Drive, redevelopment is unlikely over the next five to ten years.  Given existing data, household projections, and existing conditions on University Drive, the locations with the most apartment development potential are in Plantation, Davie and Coral Springs.    Office Market  The Broward County office market is slowly recovering from the the Great Recession of 2008 and 2009.  As is indicated on the following table, Broward County lost over 16,500 jobs between 2007 and 2012 in industries that typically occupy office space.  Table 12: Employment Trends by Industry, 2007 - 2012

  According to data from REIS, a commercial real estate data company, Broward County’s office market has had negative office absorption over the last five years.  The County lost an average of 424,000 square feet of occupied office space annually over the last five years.

 Transwestern tracks the Broward County office market and publishes a market report (MarketWatch:  Broward County) each quarter.  According to this source, as of the 1st Quarter of 2013, there were a total of 27.8 million square feet of office space in Broward County.  The County’s office supply is 18.5 percent vacant.  By comparison, the Miami‐Dade County office market (43.9 million square feet) is 20 percent vacant.  Table 13: Office Space and Overall Vacancy, 1st Quarter 2013

  

High vacancy rates have made it a buyer’s market for multi‐tenant office space.  Average office rents 

are lower today than they were two years ago.

For purposes of comparison, office space is grouped into three classes: Class A, Class B, and Class C.  

Class A buildings are the most prestigious buildings competing for premier office users with rents 

above average for the area. Class A buildings have high quality standard finishes, state of the art 

systems, exceptional accessibility and a definite market presence.  

Class B buildings compete for a wide range of users with rents in the average range for the area. 

Building finishes are fair to good for the area and systems are adequate, but the building does not 

compete with Class A at the same price.  Class C buildings compete for tenants requiring functional 

space at rents below the average for the area. Most of the office space on University Drive (with the 

exception of Plantation’s office space) is Class B or C. 

Half of Broward County’s office supply is classified as Class A space.  Class A space is concentrated in 

Downtown Ft. Lauderdale.  In the suburban submarkets it is concentrated in Southwest Broward 

(which is primarily Miramar), Cypress Creek, Plantation and Sawgrass Park.

The Southwest Broward submarket has more Class A office space than any other suburban 

submarket.  Southwest Broward also commands the highest market rents among the suburban office 

submarkets.  The office space in the Southwest Broward submarket is concentrated to the west of 

University Drive near I‐75.

  Table 16: Employment Projections by Industry

  At 230 square feet per employee, job growth in office‐inclined industries will generate demand for approximately 5.7 million square feet.  Assuming that the office market is stabilized at an occupancy rate of 93 percent, there is the potential that the market can support approximately 2 million of new office space.  The most competitive locations for new office development are Downtown, the corporate parks on the west side of County and Plantation.  In the near term, however, most of the market activity will be tenants moving into vacant space in existing buildings.

  Retail Market  Retail Principles Agglomeration Economies Retail typically clusters to allow consumers to conduct a multi‐purpose trip (grocery anchored shopping center) and/or to comparison shop (regional mall).  Clustering allows individual retailers to increase their trade area and capture.  Retail developers and stores typically seek sites that are already shopping destinations.  It is far more challenging to attract retail tenants to locations where there is little or no existing retail activity.  Store Categories 

Low Order Goods/Services Stores:  A low order good or service is something people buy on a regular daily basis.  Convenience stores like food stores and pharmacies are low order stores and they are typically found in neighborhood centers.  Because consumers patronize these types of stores often, these types of stores have smaller trade areas (5‐ to 10‐minute drive time) and require fewer households to support them.  Low order stores seek locations that are very convenient to their target markets.  Because they are so local, the trade area for a neighborhood store must realistically reflect social and cultural boundaries. Grocery stores and pharmacies are low order store anchors.  These stores typically attract other store‐types that deal with day‐to‐day needs (banks, take‐out food, hardware, barber shop/nail salon/beauty parlor, etc.).  The location benefits from this retail agglomeration because it becomes even more convenient as only one shopping trip can fulfill multiple purposes. Moderate Order Goods Stores:  Moderate order stores sell goods and services that you buy on a weekly or monthly basis.  Good examples of moderate‐order stores are Marshalls, Petco, and small department stores.  These types of stores have larger trade areas (10‐ to 15‐minute drive time) than convenience stores, so locations with strong access are particularly important to these types of stores.  These stores are typically found in community centers and/or big box power centers. High Order Stores:  These stores sell a good or a service bought only occasionally, like furniture, computers and jewelry.  These types of stores seek locations that are accessible to a large number of households.  Their trade areas are significantly larger (15‐ to 20‐minute drive time) than low and moderate order stores.   These types of stores tend to cluster as high order shoppers typically seek centers with sufficient depth and breadth of merchandise to comparison shop.  As such, these types of stores are either found in large regional malls or specialty retail centers.  

Existing Retail Landscape High Order Store Locations:  Specialty and Regional Shopping Centers There are four enclosed, regional malls in Broward County:  Westfield Broward Shopping Mall (Plantation), Sawgrass Mills (Sunrise), Coral Square (Coral Springs), and Pembroke Lakes (Pembroke Pines).  Two of these malls, Westfield Broward and Coral Square are on University Drive.  The other

two malls are within a 10‐minute drive of University Drive.  Residents residing in the vicinity of University Drive have plenty of shopping destinations available to them.  Low and Moderate Order Store Locations:  Neighborhood and Community Shopping Centers  Terranova Corporation is a commercial real estate advisory firm serving South Florida.  Terranova produces an annual retail market report for Broward County and its submarkets.  The Terranova market report excludes enclosed malls and lifestyle centers (non‐enclosed regional shopping centers).  According to Terranova’s market report for 2012, there are ten retail submarkets in Broward County:  Miramar/Pembroke Pines, Hollywood/Hallandale, Davie/Weston, Dania/S. Fort Lauderdale, Coral Springs/Margate, Plantation, Tamarac/Sunrise, Lauderdale Lakes, Oakland Park/N. Fort Lauderdale, and Pompano Beach/Deerfield Beach.  University Drive passes through five of the ten submarkets.

There are a total of 37.25 million square feet of retail in Broward County, 11 percent of this space is vacant.  There are 25.5 million square feet of retail in the five University Drive submarkets; these five  submarkets contain approximately 70 percent of the County’s retail.  Retail in these submarkets is 12.8 percent vacant. 

Table 18: Non-Regional Shopping Center Supply 

University Drive has an average traffic count in excess of 50,000 vehicles per day.  As such, University Drive is a prime location for retail stores that serve the day‐to‐day needs of nearby residents.  These “convenience”‐type stores (food, pharmacy, eat/drink, and general merchandise) are present all along the University Drive corridor.   

In terms of retail potential, it is likely that new development on University Drive will be primarily convenience and community‐oriented stores.  Stores like Marshalls, RadioShack, grocery stores, drug stores, fitness centers, and fast food will locate on University Drive.  First order stores  will locate in, or adjacent to, the existing regional shopping centers/nodes that are easily accessed from University Drive.
