Griffin Rd, Dania Beach

Great area except the traffic. It is a very tough commute in the morning and afternoon. But the hard rock is on it which makes it awesome. It also have some nice areas to live as well. Being able to go minutes to go out with my spouse to the hard rock for food fun or drinks and then be able to get home with no problems is a bonus. I am also luck to be able to get to the turnpike I595 and I95 off this road. I love this area and wish I would have found a place here. It like most large roads has a few rough patches but is great for young individuals and young couples with out kids.

Its just one lane each way along the canal. But some of the houses across the canal are pretty nice. It's not a street you would drive down for sight seeing or anything like that, but if you want to get from Griffen to US1 it's nice. There isn't usually a whole lot of traffic unlike everywhere else in South Florida.

It has less traffic lights than Sheridan or Stirling (the other two main roads running east to west in that part of Broward County). Especially once you get out west past University Drive. Its the best way to get across Broward County other than I-595.

Old Griffin Road, is a very quiet street, running along one of the many canals in Ft. Lauderdale. Although the street could be widened a bit, it will still accommodate the occasional boat being pulled along the way.

You can see many of the different types of boat from the various builders in the area on the canal running alongside the street.

It is a very quiet and peaceful drive down Old Griffin Road, especially during rush hour.

This is a great road to take when running errands, or just making numerous trips throughout the day to pick up a thing here or there. Be careful as there are many canals between the lanes on this road and I sadly have heard of more accidents then you would expect due to these canals off Griffin Road and careless drivers. This road also connects you to I75. If you go down towards the Markham Park area it becomes a bit of a "hick" town, where you will most likely see many trucks and old fashioned buildings. I would not reccomend living off certain areas of Griffin Road but then again there aren't many neighborhoods directly off of it.
