Central Area Neighborhood, the “2019 Best Broward Neighborhood per SFGN” (11/20/19), should anticipate another exciting year in 2020 with new private development and the completion of numerous public projects. Roadwork along NE 26th Street continues for The Complete Streets Project promising the creation of dedicated bike lanes, new sidewalks, along with replacement and upgrade of infrastructure including water supply lines.
