Pembroke Pines is one of the largest municipalities in Broward County, both in terms of size and population. The city limits stretch from the Florida Turnpike all the way past I-75 to the Everglades conservation area at the county’s western border. This means that the more than 170,000 residents who call Pembroke Pines home are spread out over a large east-to-west area. Pines City Center was designed to centralize and unite the community with an 80-acre master-planned village that would act as a hub for retail businesses, dining, and entertainment, and connected market-rate rental housing in the city’s main downtown district.
Pines City Center
Pines City Center was envisioned as a master-planned destination for commerce, residential living, culture, entertainment, and recreation.

Retail
Retailers and high-quality restaurant tenants are attracted to Pines City Center for its combination of civic, entertainment, commercial and residential uses in a vibrant market area that draws visitors from both the immediate neighborhood and across South Florida. Located on the north side of Pines Boulevard at Palm Avenue in Pembroke Pines, Pines City Center totals approximately 300,000 square feet of retail, restaurants, and entertainment with anchor tenants like Publix and Hobby Lobby, along with a mix of food and beverage operators. These establishments were vital in creating a center that has become an everyday destination for Pembroke Pines’ fast-growing community.
Master-Planned Development
The 80-acre two-phase master plan for Pines City Center called for approximately 300,000 total square feet of lifestyle-oriented retail, entertainment, and restaurant space, with an adjacent residential apartment community positioned alongside. Phase one included 145,000 square feet retail space that would be anchored by Publix Supermarkets. Phase two included an additional 150,000 square feet of retail alongside 387 garden apartments ranging from one to three bedrooms and townhouses with two or three bedrooms, ranging from 651 to 1,491 square feet.
Next door to the project, the City of Pembroke Pines recently completed a $60 million civic center which features a 3,500-seat performing arts center and conference hall, an outdoor plaza, a 10,000-square-foot art gallery and a new city hall. With nearly 400,000 people living within a five-mile radius of the site and 1,500 residential units within walking distance, Pines City Center has generated strong interest among national and regional retailers and is already an in-demand residential site.
