project activities will take place along a section of public shoreline which exists on the
City -owned property south of the former Pioneer Club site across from Lummus Park.
The Office of Asset Management will work closely with the Department of Community
Planning and Revitalization on this project since it reinforces redevelopment efforts along
the Miami River as outlined in CPR's Miami Riverside Revitalization Plan.
