The Downtown Delray Beach Master Plan includes the West Atlantic Neighborhood, with a Vision that supports:
- Creation of a distinctive gateway feature that welcomes visitors and identifies the West Atlantic area as the entrance to downtown Delray Beach
- New development with buildings fronting the street and parking in the rear
- Affordable housing to minimize displacement of residents
- Strategies for maintaining affordable rental rates and purchase prices on commercial properties to support locally owned businesses
- Revitalization of NW/SW 5th Avenue, with the creation of a public plaza at the Atlantic Avenue intersection
- Neighborhood pocket parks to provide quiet retreats for relaxing and unwinding outdoors
- Continued beautification of Atlantic Avenue with installation of attractive medians, shade trees, and pedestrian amenities
