MiMo Second Avenue Parking Study - Miami, Florida The Miami Parking Authority selected TimHaahs to assist with planning for future growth along the City’s Second Avenue, taking into consideration anticipated growth and development over the next five years. TimHaahs’ study included a comprehensive supply/demand analysis, transportation analysis, and a preliminary financial analysis, which addresses the financial impact of the study’s recommendations. The study area was divided into 39 blocks, with the parking areas noted as being on- or off- street. At the time of the study, adequate parking supply existed to support the study area. However, future development and redevelopment plans include a new community soccer field, as well as a Cultural Arts Center, which could increase the demand for parking. TimHaahs assessed that the Second Avenue district did not have a current or future shortage of parking. Since the area could experience future revitalization and redevelopment, TimHaahs recommended that the Authority ‘bank’ some parcels of land for future parking. TimHaahs also recommended that the City and the Miami Parking Authority monitor the area, and reassess the progress of development, growth, and revitalization regularly over the next five to ten years.
