This page covers how Plescia serves Davie—the corridors we build in, the commercial sectors and project types we deliver, the South Florida code and logistics that shape every job, and the kind of commercial work that defines our portfolio across the town.

Where We Build: Davie Districts We Serve

Davie combines a major education-and-medical center with retail corridors and a distinctive equestrian character. We work across:

  • The South Florida Education Center – the Nova Southeastern University, Broward College, and FAU campus cluster and its research and medical facilities;
  • The University Drive corridor and Tower Shops – the town’s primary retail and commercial spine;
  • The Griffin Road and Davie Road corridors – retail, service, and commercial frontage;
  • Downtown Davie – town-center and civic redevelopment;
  • Flex and light-industrial parcels along the highways.

Permitting and Code in Davie

As part of Broward County, Davie sits in the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) — the strictest section of the Florida Building Code — so every commercial project is engineered for extreme hurricane wind and windborne-debris impact, permitted through the city and county.
Several requirements shape commercial work here:

  • High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) — wind-load and missile-impact design govern the building envelope, with impact-rated windows, doors, and roofing carrying Miami-Dade NOA or Florida Product Approval documentation;
  • Roofing and envelope — HVHZ roofing assemblies, enhanced attachment, and secondary water barriers;
  • Flood and stormwater — FEMA flood zones and South Florida Water Management District drainage requirements on low-lying sites;
  • Threshold and special inspections on qualifying structures.

We design and build to these from day one, coordinating product approvals, engineering, and permitting so a Davie project clears review and stands up to South Florida’s climate.
