ODIO n4181 The City of Miami administration 'through its departments Public Works, Planning and Development has reviewed the design phase drawings for the Metromover extensions recommends the following modifications for your consideration; Guideway Line Sections of 30% and piers and pier caps remaid of concern as to size and aesthetic design. Visual impacts of the guideway on NE 2nd Avenue, NE 15th Street, SE 1st Avenue and SE llth and 14th Streets will be significant and will require further detailed study of methods to soften and enhance the guideways visual impact on the public street environment. Protection of piers and accident attenuation armouring needs further, study to improve its appearance. Decorative pavers proposed for sidewalks in mid -station line segments must be maintained by the Metromover system. Freedom Tower Station The palm planting scheme should allow for future direct at - grade connections from adjacent private property to the station entry plaza. The paving pattern utilizing three color forms is distinctive and appealing; we encourage its implementation. The depth of the site is important to assuring adequate space for pedestrian movements and landscaping. As only 4 feet of width exists between piers and the face of curb, it is important that a minimum of 10 feet of clear sidewalk width for a north -south walkway be maintained on the west side of the station. In addition, the palm grove, as designed, is an important amenity for enhancing the pedestrian walkway and statilan site. OFFICE OF THE CITY MANACFR/P.O.Bo. 33070E/Miami, Florida 33133-070&/(305) 579-E M (2 OF 13) Carlos Bonzon page 2 The escaltor should be located at the southern (6th Street) end of the station to facilitate transfer to potential Port of Miami Metromover spur along 6th Street. Park West Station Same comments as above concerning paving, depth of site, and landscaping. The 9th Street intersection must .incorporate the patterns and materials specified for the Park West Mall design as prepared by the City of Miami consultants, W.R.T. Bicentennial Park Station Walkway design connecting Biscayne Boulevard to the station shall incorporate the Burle Marx design plan for Biscayne Boulevard. in conjunction with further analysis of the guideway crossing of I-395, consideration should be given to moving the Station platform east and closer to the waterfront. The escalator should be placed at the east end. Omni -Station Midblock crosswalk to Omni is needed. Busy lane 'exits to Biscayne Boulevard should be combined. In addition, incorporation of NE 14th Terrace into the station/bus transfer site will ease the crowded site design. Additional landscaping to soften extensive paved areas is needed. Do not incorporate private car passenger drop-off into bus lane. Shelters for bus patrons and covered walkway connections to the Metromover station are needed. The standard domed platform roof structure should be used instead of a flat roof, even with joint development considerations. Although remote at this time, Light -rail considerations should anticipate a need for terminal station, possibly along 14th Terrace. , Carlos Bonzon page 3 Riverwalk Station Crosswalk to park should be closer to corner to align, with Ft. Dallas Park entry. additional tall landscaping is needed for screening along park boundary. Rename Station to "Ft. Dallas Park Station" (change existing loop station from "Ft. Dallas Park" to. "Miami Avenue" and the "Miami. Avenue" Station to "Flagler Street." Use the same paver materials as in the park for the pedestrian plaza at the station entrance. Turn electrical substation 90 degrees to a north -south orientation to open view to river from street. i Assure through a written agreement with existing property owner, that when the adjacent parcel to west is developed, the riverwalk will be completed across the metromover easement by the developer. Platform roof should be standard domed design. North Brickell Station Rename to "Miami River Station" or Miami River -South" As above, a written agreement is needed to assure property owner construction of riverwalk. Eighth Street Station Change name to "Tamiami Station"• station sign subtext to still read "8th Street and 1st. Avenue". A sidewalk along the proposed street Connection from 7th to 8th Street will be necessary to allow pedestrian movement. Tenth Street Station Intersection design at lath Street shall incorporate the Brickell Promenade design standards for 10th Street. Change name to "Brickell Promenade" (subtext on station signs will still include street location "10 Street and 1st Avenue"). (4 01.? 13) r Carlos Bonzon page 4 Relocation, removal or replacement of existing street trees along SE 1st Avenue will require a public hearing before the Miami Heritage/Conservation Board. Extend stairs and faregate south towards filth Street rather than a return north to midblock as shown. llth Street Guideway Line Segement Move pier locations south to preserve existing curb alignment and retain two moving lanes along llth Street. Coral Way Station Change name to "Brickell Avenue" or "Brickell Financial, Center" (Coral Way stops at 1-95 and is not close). Platform canopy to be standdrd domed design. We are pleased to offer the above recommendations in furtherance of our mutual efforts to construct this vital public facility.
