The City of Miami’s Planning, Zoning and Appeals Board (PZAB) recently considered rezoning efforts proposed for Midtown Miami, Florida YIMBY reports. The proposal involved a height increase for what is known as Gateway 1, an undeveloped and vacant parcel of land addressed 3501 Northeast 1st Avenue. The developer behind the application is unknown, but the current rules only allow for a 33-story structure as tall as 350 ft, whereas the proposal asks to allow for a 48-story structure. Upon approval, the parcel would be permitted to go up to the maximum allowed height of 48 stories under the Miami 21 zoning for the property, instead of being restricted by Midtown Miami Special District’s designation. Board members have been advised to consider the zoning rules across the street, which permit for the construction of a structure as high as 60 stories.
