FORT LAUDERDALE - Fort Lauderdale city commissioners have approved Beach Walk at Bahia Mar for city owned, privately leased property at 701 Seabreeze Blvd.

The commission's vote Tuesday clears the way for an expansion of the property on the Intracoastal Waterway south of Las Olas Boulevard.

Part of plans for a major overhaul at the Bahia Mar Beach Resort and Yachting Center, the project adds two three-story buildings on Seabreeze.

The city granted a reduction in parking from the required 1,394 spots to 1,025, and waived a maximum 200-foot building length requirement to allow 375 feet.

The project includes a landscaped 10-foot wide walkway along Seabreeze Boulevard and a promenade along the Intracoastal Waterway.
