Naranja Lakes Community Redevelopment Area
An urban initiative to stimulate and guide the redevelopment of the Naranja Lakes area creating better neighborhoods to live, work and play.
Naranja Lakes is poised for new growth that may well be precedent-setting model for future neighborhoods in Miami-Dade County. The first step in this process is the new community of Mandarin Lakes under development on 212-acres of vacant property that is part of the Naranja Lakes Community Redevelopment Area.
A forward-looking, citizens-directed agency is tackling one of the most important economic development initiatives in South Miami-Dade, the rebirth and renewal of an area still recovering from the devastation of Hurricane Andrew in 1992.
Mandarin Lakes - A traditional neighborhood development with 1,567 residential units, retail shops, commercial buildings, public squares and greens, a Village Center with an outdoor public amphitheater and a childcare facility.
