In 1997 The Black Archives History and Research Foundation commissioned a master plan study for the Overtown Folklife Village to create a unique, pedestrian scaled village environment to anchor the historic core of Overtown; this report builds on that study with an expanded scope and extent that reflects the changes that have taken place in Miami since that time. For most of the 20th century Overtown was a vibrant community that was the heart of Black culture, entertainment and business in Miami and South Florida. Founded as the only part of Miami where the Black population was allowed to live and own property, it developed into a thriving, self-sufficient community including many Black -owned homes, businesses, and entertainment venues. Often referred to as 'Harlem of the South', Overtown was also renowned as the center of Black culture and nightlife for the Southeast, reflecting the energy of the community that found expression in the many cultural forms that existed there, such as music, art and food. This Black energy will be the central theme that informs the new Overtown Culture and Entertainment District. The area will once again become a HISTORIC 0VFiR1XYWN F0II0-I%8 VUTAGF. 1997 Historic Overtown Folklife Village Master Plan Document Duany Plater-Zyberk & Company destination, and a place for people to live, work and enjoy the unique history and culture that is integral to Miami. • Create a distinct place that reclaims the role of Blacks in the history and culture of Miami: An authentically Black experience. • Re-establish Overtown as Miami's center for Black culture, entertainment, innovation and entrepreneurship. • Bring the Black community back to Overtown to live, with a diverse offering of housing opportunities. • Enable small scale development and local investment, a space for black innovators and entrepreneurs. • Create a compact, walkable community, with access to local and regional transit and centralized parking. • Incorporate best practices for sustainability, resiliency and Smart City design principles to make Overtown a model for urban redevelopment. 3 Historic Overtown Culture & Entertainment District 2019 Historic Overtown Culture & Entertainment District Master Plan Document Perkins+Will THE VISION - Create a distinct placL that reclaims the role of Overtown in the history and culture of Miami. - Establish a compact, walkable community, with access to local and regional transit and centralized parking. - Re-establish Overtown as Miami's center for black culture, entertainment, and entrepreneurship. - Enable new development, local investmer 1, and a place for small businesses to grow. - Bring folks back to Overtown to live. 4 Historic Overtown Culture & Entertainment District COMMUNITY INPUT: WHAT WE HEARD MAY 15, 2018 On May 15th, 2018 the design team held a listening session with Overtown stakeholders including the Southeast Overtown/Park West CRA, Lion Development Group, and local businesses and institutions to discuss the goals and aspirations for the Overtown Cultural and Entertainment District. The question was posed, 'What would success look like?' This resulted in a spirited dialogue that generated a wealth of ideas and themes to inform the design evolution of the study: "W NW 51, iY W t.

HISTORIC THEMES / BLACK HISTORY + CULTURE The African Diaspora community was an essential element of the creation and building of Miami. Thousands of people of African descent located to Miami from other parts of the United States and Caribbean ports to construct the railroad, and they were counted to create the original charter for the City of Miami. Prohibited from living in other parts of Miami, these people and their descendants settled in the area now known as Overtown and created a unique community and culture there. 6 Historic Overtown Culture & Entertainment District M Raw 131muf0 WOE lot fi:.:.::'c.

At its peak it was home to approximately 40,000 people and was a self-sustaining community based on self-reliance with many Black owned businesses and institutions. Its maini; street was 2nd Avenue which came to be known as 'Little Broadway' due to the number of businesses and entertainment venues located there. 4 174"AA f '&,&. r _ _ NON -- a Pq k 4 M IN ` Z77 Historic Overtown Culture & Entertainment District HISTORIC THEMES / MUSIC + ENTERTAINMENT Overtown was visited by many of the most prominent Black leaders of the 20th century including Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, Count Basie, Josephine Baker, Billie Holiday, Lena Horne, Aretha Franklin, B.B.

Ironically, even Black entertainers who performed in Miami Beach could not stay in the hotels there, but had to overnight in Overtown when in Miami.

This was symbolized most clearly by a section of the neighborhood named Good Bread Alley. According to spoken and written accounts it was so named because of the aroma of freshly baked bread that residents made in their homes and sold on the front porches along the alley to passersby. This spirit of self-reliance and small, neighborhood businesses was a fundamental element of Overtown's identity that helped it to endure and sustain the community for decades. 12 Historic Overtown Culture & Entertainment District �� d.'LUY✓j-�. �j.Pvs�` 'CA�tRYC 1�7A�In/L *A" HISTORIC THEMES / INTERSTATE 95 OVERTOWN 1936 OVERTOWN 1936 W/ 1-95 OVERLAY 13 Historic Overtown Culture & Entertainment District HISTORIC THEMES / INTERSTATE 95 :fir �-%.

Local artist Purvis Young used the abandoned walls and boarded up storefronts of the area as a canvas for his artwork, that reportedly was visible by those driving by on the freeway. His highly charged artwork expressed the energy and sense of community of Overtown, but also the yearning for redemption and release from oppression that Overtown also represented, being the only part of Miami where Blacks were allowed to live and own property. 15 Historic Overtown Culture & Entertainment District SITE ANALYSIS CULTURAL CONTEXT + EXISTING ASSETS + ADJACENT DEVELOPMENT The study area for the Culture and Entertainment District is only a small portion of the historic Overtown community. Much of the area has been severed into pieces by the construction of 1-95 and 1-395 in the 1960's. The study area includes a significant portion of the historic heart of Overtown's business and nightlife district that is centered on 2nd Avenue, earlier known as Little Broadway or The Great Black Way. Bordered by Downtown Miami to the south and Wynwood to the north, Overtown is within walking distance from Biscayne Bay, cultural amenities and new waterfront development. Overtown provides the opportunity to create a unique, walkable destination for the population that works, lives and visits those areas. It is also adjacent to the Metro Rail and the Miami Central Train Station, providing excellent access to local and regional public transit. 16 Historic Overtown Culture & Entertainment District SITE LOCATION / OVERTOWN DISTRICT - MIAMI, FLORIDA T i ! - ... ..

A primary goal for the District is to create an environment that is distinct from other recent nearby development, one that reflects the unique cultural and historical themes of Overtown: It will have failed if when flying over Miami one cannot distinguish Overtown from everything around it. Based on this principle and derived from the existing Folk Life Village Plan, several key design themes will guide the new development within the Overtown study area. URBAN DESIGN The urban design framework is based on the character and historical significance of the individual streets and public spaces in the Overtown district: 2nd Avenue: Will be re-established as the center of Black culture and entertainment for Florida and the Southeastern US. It will be the primary location for restaurants, clubs, music venues and shops, creating a thriving pedestrian environment and an anchor for Overtown. Streetscape improvements with lush landscaping extending from 8th Street to 11th Terrace will create a district identity and lay the groundwork for new development . New buildings will feature continuous canopies or balconies creating a shaded and protected pedestrian experience for residents and visitors. 9th Street: Anchored on the east by the Black Archives and on the west by the Dorsey House and the Ward Rooming House 9th Street will have a theme of Black history and culture. The streetscape will highlight and augment the existing paving design by artist Gary Moore. Since it does not have thru traffic it will have a strong pedestrian character. The eastern end will be the entry point to the 9th Street Promenade. 2nd Avenue and 9th Street: The Beating Heart of Overtown: Lyric Theater, Lyric Plaza, the new Red Rooster, and potentially a gallery of Black art and culture. A New Pavilion: Located along the northern edge of the Lyric Plaza, will frame the entrance to the 9th Street Promenade and serve as a shade structure and performance venues for events. 2nd Court: Only one block long, 2nd Court will be the pedestrian heart of the District; a unique pedestrian village featuring Black visual arts, craft, food, innovation and entrepreneurship. Intimate pedestrian alleys and courtyards will connect 2nd Court to the surrounding streets, recreating the scale and spirit of historic Good Bread Alley and providing spaces for impromptu performance, artwork and market stalls to revive the spirit of family businesses and local artwork that was such an essential part of Overtown's history. The street can easily be closed to traffic for festivals, markets and musical and arts events. Parking decks will be located at northern and southern ends with highly visible stair and elevator cores; these will be the point of origin and return for many pedestrians. New development will be limited to three stories, with two story loggias activating street level and second level businesses. Garage doors, operable facades will open businesses to the street. Flush, curbless pavement from building line to building line will create a drivable street that can readily be closed for special events. Lushly landscaped mid -block pedestrian ways and courtyards will connect to 2nd Avenue and 3rd Avenue creating a densely layered pedestrian network. 3rd Avenue: 3rd Avenue will focus on neighborhood retail, services and amenities to serve the residents and guests of Overtown. As in its heyday, this will focus on locally owned businesses to re -build the economic vitality and self-sufficiency of the community. New development will include residential, hospitality, retail and commercial 24 Historic Overtown Culture & Entertainment District office and will step up to a maximum of eight stories with tiered transitions stepping down toward 2nd Court. The corners of 8th Street and 11th Terrace will have threshold markers to designate the entry points to the District. 6th and 7th Streets: These streets frame the southern end of the district and are undergoing dense, high-rise new development that will connect the core of Overtown with downtown Miami. 6th Street extends all the way to the east to Biscayne Bay with the American Airlines Arena and the Museum of Art and Design, making it an important pedestrian connection. 8th Street: As the primary vehicular access from 1-95 8th Street is a primary vehicular entrance to the district as well as to developments further east. It is also major pedestrian link to the MetroRail and Brightline, as well as to Biscayne Boulevard and the American Airlines Arena. The corners of 2nd and 3rd Avenues will be primary thresholds marked by iconic art or graphics. loth and 11th Streets: The primary connections to Museum Park and Biscayne Boulevard to the east as well as the historic western section of Overtown. These will be the location of primarily new residential development to provide housing choices for new residents of Overtown. They will receive new streetscape and markers at the intersections of 2nd and 3rd Avenues designating the eastern and western entrances to the District.

Groupings of dense tree planting will create deep shade and visual texture and beauty. • SPECIAL STRUCTURES: Several specific structures will visually enrich and lend identity to the district: - Shade pavilions: These can create a design vocabulary that will be part of the district identity. - Benches and seating: Like the shade pavilions these will share a common design theme that contribute to the district identity. - New building at the NW corner of 2nd Ave and 9th Street; while the program is not yet determined this building will be an important anchor for this critical corner. - Stair/elevator towers: The stairs and elevators of the parking structures will be designed as visible markers for orientation and safety for the public. • THRESHOLDS: Key entry points to the Overtown Cultural and Entertainment District will create a strong sense of arrival and help to define the character of the district. These can be commissioned works of art or sculpture, as well as architectural features or branded graphics. The locations for the primary markers are: 2nd Avenue and 8th Street — northeast corner. 2nd Avenue and NW 11th Terrace — north side, on axis with 2nd Avenue. 3rd Avenue and 8th Street — northwest corners. 3rd Avenue and NW 11th Terrace — existing murals on MetroRail overpass. • SECONDARY MARKERS: - 10th Street at 2nd and 3rd Avenues - 11th Street at 2nd and 3rd Avenues • LIGHTING AND SECURITY zs Historic Overtown Culture & Entertainment District - New streetscape lighting will be implemented to improve safety, visibility, and function of the public realm. - Light poles may integrate security features such as cameras or call boxes as needed. - Integrate branding and wayfinding.
