- Florida State Road 824
Locally known as Pembroke Road, State Road 824 is a 6.1-mile-long east-west highway in southern
Broward County, Florida . Its western terminus is an intersection with South University Drive (SR 817), on the boundary between Miramar and Pembroke Pines and adjacent toNorth Perry Airport ; its eastern terminus is an intersection with South Federal Highway (US 1/SR 5) on the boundary between Hollywood and Hallandale. Pembroke Road is a major commuter route for southern Broward County. At the eastern end, it continues into a residential area for several blocks past Federal Highway, named Moffett Street.While North Perry Airport marks the western end of SR 824, the Hollywood Dog Track is located at the eastern end.
The SR 824 designation was originally applied to Hallandale Beach Boulevard (current SR 858), 0.5 mile to the south; at the same time, a stretch of Pembroke Road between US 441 (SR 7) and then-SR 5A had State Road 824A signage. About
1983 , both streets received their present State Road designations (with the "new" SR 824 having more than double the length of the former SR 824A). The number reassignments occurred at roughly the same time that many Dade County State Roads were given new numbers in a reorganization by theFlorida Department of Transportation .Pembroke Road extends 5.5 miles past the western terminus of SR 824, primarily a residential road but also going by South Florida State Hospital (NW Corner of SR 817/University Drive) and Market Place Mall (at an intersection with SR 823).
