Fort Lauderdale DDA
The Fort Lauderdale Downtown Development Authority (DDA) was formed to provide for the rehabilitation, rede-velopment, and revitalization of slum and blighted areas Downtown. The Fort Lauderdale DDA's mission is to focus on growing the residential community and the amenities that service it, highlighting the regional activity center as the downtown of Broward County, and facilitating its physical and economic development.
The ChallengeCatapulted by federal funding for their new Wave Trolly, the Fort Lauderdale DDA set out to provide a single source for accessing information on the various modes of trans-portation available in Fort Lauderdale. They also want-ed to showcase the restaurants, shops, hotels, nightlife, events and activities available to citizens and visitors in the city. The Fort Lauderdale DDA needed a tool for users to find their ideal destination, and get them there.

The Get Around fea-ture then provides a multi-modal trip planner, with an inter-active map of Fort Lauderdale.
