Industrial buildings in the neighborhood

Dillard Park is a neighborhood located about five miles northwest of Fort Lauderdale, just west of the wall of industrial businesses bordered by Interstate 95 and 23rd Avenue. The neighborhood is characterized by modestly built mid-century homes with a few 21st-century homes interspersed and is bisected by Sunrise Boulevard, a busy east-west thoroughfare. Among the industrial buildings near the neighborhood are a shower door manufacturer and a building materials supplier. Living in Dillard Beach means access to the beach is just 20 minutes by car.

Mid-century dwellings

In Dillard Park, there are both side-gabled and front-gabled ranch-style houses, along with some Spanish revival homes built in the 1950s and '60s. There are a few newer single-family homes, as well as some multi-family houses. One duplex was built in 2021, with each unit having three bedrooms and two bathrooms, and a living space of 1,400 square feet. While some houses have attached garages, it's more common to see one or two carport spaces. The average Dillard Park home has two to three bedrooms and up to 2,000 square feet of living space, but it's more common for it to have around 1,000 square feet. The price per square foot is slightly over $300, and the prices range from $250,000 to $450,000.

Flea market attracts tourists

Before the middle of 2023, there was an amusement park located at the multi-level Swap Shop flea market on Sunrise Boulevard. After several years of operation, Uncle Bernie's rides ceased to operate. The drive-in movies at Swap Shop have also been discontinued. However, the 180,000-square-foot air-conditioned flea market with about 2,000 vendors that make up the two levels remains, drawing people from miles around. It is believed to be the second-largest tourist attraction in the state and the largest in the Miami-Fort Lauderdale metropolitan area. If you need to purchase groceries, you can visit the Walmart Supercenter approximately four miles away on Oakland Park Boulevard, or Publix, which is located about three miles away to the northeast on the same road.

Broward County creates green space

Located at the intersection of Sunrise Boulevard and 27th Avenue, there is Dillard Green Space. Broward County Parks and Recreation purchased this land to create a beautiful green space for the community to enjoy. The park features paved walkways, which are perfect for exercising or taking a stroll. While there are no playgrounds or athletic facilities, there is a sculpture called 'At One', designed by local artist Blessing Hancock. At night, an LED light fixture accentuates the sculpture and enhances its beauty.
