Station area development requires stations. With each new rail transit system constructed in the United States, station area development appears to becoming a more important aspect of rail transit investment. In order to apply in Florida what has emerged as a successful strategy in other communities, it is essential to know what are the potential for its application is in this state. A logical place to begin is to review our assets. Although Florida is probably not perceived as a rail transit state, either by its residents or outsiders, rail transit (in its various dimensions) is an component of public transportation in southeast Florida, in Jacksonville, and soon will become a part of the transit mix in Tampa. The document includes the following Stations: Jacksonville Transportation Authority Skyway; Metro Dade Transit Agency (MDTA), Metrorail; Metro Date Transit Agency (MDTA) Metromover; and Tri County Commuter Railroad Authority, Tri Rail.
