The complexity of the T6 zone is not only achieved by regulating uses, there are also multiple regulations on the capacity (stories & square footage) of the buildings. To achieve this, there are various transect sub-zones within the T6 range (see chart below).
Regulation of capacity in T6
The number located after each T6 is the number of stories that can be built
in that transect zone by right.
T6-8 max. eight (8) stories
T6-12 max. twelve (12) stories
T6-24 max. twenty four (24) stories
T6-36 max. thirty six (36) stories
T6-48
max. forty-eight (48) stories
T6-60 max. of sixty (60) stories
T6-80 max. of eighty (80) stories
Regulation of Use in a T6 zone
Regulating use is an important part of any zoning code.
Miami 21 Zoning Code prioritizes building form (shape and bulk) over the regulation of use to
allow for mixed-use development. The T6 zone has the greatest number and variety of uses.
