Oakland Park is on the move. After years of listening to residents and businesses, the City is taking a thoughtful, balanced approach to growth. The goal isn’t to change who we are — it’s to protect our neighborhoods and small-town city charm while creating the housing, shops, green spaces, and amenities to support our community's economic revitalization and stability.

Revitalizing Downtown
After years of stalled activity and aging city facilities, leaders recognized that valuable public spaces could work harder for our community. The question was simple: What’s the best use of this space? The answer, shaped by community feedback, was clear — invest in projects that drive economic revitalization by transforming underused properties into vibrant, walkable destinations. New projects like the Sky Building and the Horizon of Oakland Park will attract people downtown, support our small business community, and create new housing, retail, and job opportunities for residents to live, work, shop, and gather.

Growth with Purpose
Redevelopment in Oakland Park is about balance — protecting what makes our city unique while addressing real needs.

• Supporting small businesses – New homes and mixed-use projects bring more customers to local shops and restaurants, helping businesses stay competitive and thrive.
• Creating jobs and stability – Redevelopment creates jobs, boosts property values, and generates tax revenue to strengthen city services without adding to homeowners’ costs.
• Improving quality of life – Projects will deliver more green space, safer streets, additional parking, and modernized city services.

Shaping Progress Together

Oakland Park isn’t chasing change — it’s shaping progress with purpose. By protecting what’s special while creating what’s needed, the City is strengthening neighborhoods, supporting small businesses, and improving quality of life for generations to come.

Oakland Park is a city on the move — growing with balance, opportunity, and care.
