Northwest 19th Street in Midtown will get a makeover.

The Boca Raton City Council at its meeting Feb. 26 supported a proposal by the two corporate owners of Glades Plaza to improve the street that bisects the retail center. Its tenants include Starbucks, Abe & Louie’s restaurant, Orangetheory Fitness and TooJay’s Gourmet Deli.

The Glades Plaza owners approached the city with their ideas to beautify the road because they plan to redevelop their property. They will make the improvements and maintain them.

Their conceptual plans dovetail with the city’s desire to improve the appearance of streets in Midtown and to improve their walkability.

Northwest 19th Street is among the roads the city slated for upgrades in the small area plan for Midtown. Some elements of the small area plan are included in a recently adopted city ordinance.

The roadwork will be done on the section of the street between Butts Road and Renaissance Way.

Glades Plaza wants wider sidewalks with pavers, crosswalks with pavers, on-street parking, and the addition of trees and other landscaping on both sides of the street. Additional landscaping will be between sidewalks and the two-lane street.

The City Council’s support of the project will allow city staff and the owners to finalize an agreement for construction and maintenance. Work permits will then be issued.

The Glades Plaza owners are L&B CIP Glades Plaza LLC and L&B CIP Glades Twin Plaza LLC.
