The Downtown Delray Beach Master Plan includes the Central Core District, with a Vision that supports:
- Year-round, self-sustaining downtown business activity that is enhanced by, but not dependent on, visitors and tourists
- Increased residential densities to encourage downtown living in a variety of housing types that support local businesses and add value and architectural character to the area
- Redevelopment of side streets to create more opportunities for small businesses to thrive
- Strategically designed and conveniently located parking that serves both private business and the public
- Creation of a more pedestrian-friendly environment along the two Federal Highways as they enter downtown from the north and south with wider sidewalks, decreased speeds and enhanced beautification
- Improving traffic flow by converting both of the one-way pair of "bypass" streets (SE 1st Street & NE 1st Street) into two-way traffic
- Expansion of the Old School Square campus to include a 2-acre urban park and a 550-space public parking garage
- Infill development in the Pineapple Grove area that includes mixed use structures with a "Floribbean" character
