FUTURE USE OF BOOKER T. WASHINGTON' FACILITY
1 1YV.
June, 1932
BACKGROUND
i
'
On t,larch 10, 1982, the Attendance Boundary committee (ABC) recommended
to the Superintendent and the Dade County School Board, in its document,
Attendance Zone Recommendations and Related Administrative Actions,
1982-83, that a replacement junior high school be built for Robert E., Lee
ana Booker T. Washington Junior High Schools. Implicit in the ABC's recom-
mendation was the fact that both facilities would be demolished and replaced
by a single new modern junior high school facility. The ABC did not make
any recommendations as to the location of this new facility.
k
During that same School Board meeting, many community representatives
spoke before the School Board regarding the future of Booker T. Washington.
As a result of this discussion, the School Board directed the Superintendent
to review all of the factors surrounding the future use of the Booker T.
Washington facility and return to the School Board, at a future date, with
recommendations relative to the resolution of this issue.
I
At the April 14, 1982, School Board meeting, the Superintendent recommended
to the School Board the commissioning of an Ad Hoc Committee to study and
Y
make recommendations regarding future use of the Booker T. Washington
r
junior high school facility. As recommended, by the Superintendent, this Ad
Hoc Committee would have representatives from the follo:-ling organizations:
Attendance Boundary Committee
Booker T. Washington Advisory Committee
:V
Overtown Ad Hoc Committee
Black Archives Incorporated
City of Miami Overtown Redevelopment Coordinator
Booker T. Washington Junior High School Principal
South Central Area Superintendent
A
North Central Area Superintendent
Assistant Superintendent, Office of Elementary
and Secondary Schools
Subsequently, the committee membership was modified by the School Board,
resulting in Mr. Gerald K. Schwartz being named as the chairman of the Ad
Hoc Committee. This committee was also expanded to include representatives
of the Jackson Educational Redevelopment Council (JERC) and a representa-
tive of the Bureau of Business Management. Additionally, the principal of
:>
Booker T. Washington Junior High School was moved to an advisory position
^
r"
from a voting member of the committee.

The committee, under the direction of the chairman, met on five different
occasions and reviewed all of the demographics relative to the Booker T.
Washington issue. Representatives from the City of Miami Overtown Redevel-
opment presented projections , on future plans for the redevelopment of the
Overtown/Park %:'est areas. School Board representatives presented projec-
tions on student population figures for the next ten years. Additionally, an
exhaustive review of the schools surrounding the Booker T. Washington area
and the various feeder patterns that currently exist was reviewed.
Visitations to both Booker T. Washington and Robert E. Lee Junior High
Schools were conducted by the Committee. Subsequent reviews of the impact
of consolidation of schools within the area viere examined. The committee
examined the concerns expressed by the Black Archives, in terms of preser-
vation of a facility and location that holds significant historical importance to
the Black community. The committee also became sensitive to the impact that
the Booker T. Washington facility will play in the revitalization of the Over-
town/Park West community.
These, and a myriad other issues, were carefully and deliberately examined
by the committee and assisted the committee in arriving at its recommenda-
tions.
RECOMMENDATiONS
The Ad Hoc Committee, after carefully exploring all of the variables sur-
rounding the question regarding the future use of Booker T. Washington,
reached a consensus on the following recommendations:
1. The Dade County School Board should immediately begin to
implement the purchase of all available land surrounding the
current Booker T. Washington facility. Purchase of this
additional land will expand the site to approximately 24 acres.
2. The Booker T. Washington site should be maintained as an
educational facility. Current student projections justify the
construction of a new modern junior high school facility. It is
recommended that this facility be planned and constructed in
such a way that, when the Overtown/Park West redevelopment
is complete and if the student population justifies it, the
Booker T. Washington Junior High School facility be expanded
to a 7-12 grade educational complex. The expansion of the
junior high school facility, to incorporate grades 10-12, is
contingent on the student population materializing.
3. The Robert E. Lee Junior High School facility should be
closed, and the Attendance Boundary Committee should explore
new boundaries involving Allapattah Junior, Citrus Grove
Junior, Shenandoah Junior, Carver/Ponce and Booker T.

the Booker T. Washington facility holds for the community, it
is recommended that the eagle embossed on the front wall of
the Booker T.. Washington facility be preserved or duplicated
and permanently placed at the entrance of the new Booker T.
Washington facility. Additionally, it is requested that the
columns, which make up the entrance of the existing Booker
T. Washington, be maintained in the new structure for histor-
ical purposes.
6. It is further recommended that some space be provided to the
Black Archives which would be used to depict the history and
contributions of Blacks to this community. This permanent
-
display would be utilized by all of the students in Dade Coun-
ty, with appropriate pre -visitation and past -visitation activi-
ties.
7. The gymnasium should be maintained and continue to be uti-
lized for the Junior High School and community education
programs.

8. Discussions should begin immediately with the City of Miami for
the use of Gibson Park which is contiguous to Booker T.
Washington Junior High School. This park, which is currently
}'
utilized by the Booker T. Washington physical education de-
partment, should be somehow made into a park/school complex.
CONCLUSION
In the review of all of the factors surrounding this issue, the Ad Hoc
Committee realized that the Booker T. Washington facility is a significant
part of the history of this community and, as such, every effort possible
should be made to incorporate and preserve this role in the present and
future of this school system. A commitment by the School Board to this
5 " a
concept would serve as an example, not only to this community but also
to other communities across this state and country.

INTRODUCTION
Recent changes in the demographic characteristics
and patterns in central Miami have prompted the
study of this area's educational infrastructure.
As the community's needs for specific types of
schools change, it becomes necessary to inventory
and analyze existing facilities in order to
assess their capacity to meet those changing
needs. Booker T. Washington Junior High School
is one such educational facility in this area of
change. This study examines Booker T. Washington
and its potentials for redevelopment to comply
with state standards for a junior high school
capable of serving 1,400 students.
SCOPE
The scope of this study evaluates the existing
Booker T. Washington Junior High School buildings
and grounds to:
A. Determine the feasibility of adaptively reusing the
original 1926 structure.
B. Determine the structural life expectancy of
structures added after 1926.
C. Develop and examine alternatives for reuse.
D. Develop cost estimates for alternative approaches.
The following items were considered in this study:
1. Structural conditions
2. Architectural conditions
3. Electrical conditions
4. Mechanical conditions
S. Code requirements
6. Programmatic requirements
7. Alternative site configurations
8. Historical character of the 1926 school
building
9. Community context
10.Conditions affecting development of a
1,400 student junior high school at this
site.

i
The methodology developed to approach this study
consisted of answering several key questions. The
questions were structured to provide the most
objective examination of the problems at hand.
The questions guiding the direction of the study
are:
1. What is the estimated life remaining in the
building systems (structural., architectural,
_ mechanical, electrical and plumbing)?
2. What improvements would be necessary to meet
current State standards.
3. What steps can be taken to extend the life
of building systems to 20 years; 40 years?
4. What are the alternatives available for
recycling this facility?
` . 5. What is the range of anticipated costs required
to carry out renovations and/or the
alternatives proposed?
a In order to develop a comprehensive data base for
formulating responses to the above questions, a
series of inspections and on -site analyses were

made by a team of Architects and Engineers. Data
concerning the history of maintenance, safety to
life inspections, and structural inspections was
assembled and studied to identify reoccurring
i problems and patterns of repairs or defects that
may be anticipated in the future. In-depth
analysis of the structural, electrical, mechanical
and plumbing systems were carried out in
r, conjunction with a thorough exploration of the
conditions and problems related to the building's
architectural framework (i.e. roof system,
finishes, stairways, etc).
The existing conditions were inventoried and
compared to the State standards for Junior High
Schools of 1,400 students. A programmatic
comparison between the existing conditions and
State requirements was developed to assess the
schools capacity to be upgraded.
Factors that had bearing upon the relationship of
the school with the community were researched and
assessed. Historical records and data were
gathered in conjunction with the Black Archives
and the City of Miami Planning Department in
order to appreciate the role the school has played
during its history. School personnel were also
interviewed to compliment this research.

,,.:HOOL & BUILDING HISTORY
The following school history and chronology was
prepared by The Black Archives History and
Research Foundation of South Florida, Inc.
The first school for black children in Miami
was located in a wooden building on Northwest 8th
Street 2nd and 3rd Avenues, on the site where the
Berrien Hotel now stands. Called "Old
Washington," that school was named for President
George Washington. It is belibved that this
school started in 1896 and only contained grades
one through six. Later, the Fort Dallas Land
Company donated property for a new school
building on 12th Street, the present Bite of
Douglas Elementary School. In 1924 a high school
department was opened at Dunbar. High school
classes were conducted on this site until Booker
T. Washington Senior High School opened. In
1927, the junior and senior high school
departments, as well as some elementary classes,
moved to the Booker T. Washington. During the
school's construction in 1926, it was damaged by
a hurricane and a bombing.
Upon opening in 1927, black students journeyed
from as far north as Pompano Beach and as far
south as Key West in order to attend a school
which could provide a 12th grade education
recognized by the County Superintendent. Prior
to the opening of this school black youth left
school after completing tenth or eleventh grade.
At the time Booker T. Washington High School was
erected it was a great source of pride for the
black community in South Florida. No other
facility, public or private, contained an
auditorium and cafetorium•of equal size. In
addition, the courtyard and landscaping made the
area appropriate for large gatherings. Numerous
local and state meetings were held there. In the
March 1942 issue of Crisis magazine, a local
black observer made the—YoUllowing comments:

Dwarfing all other schools for Negroes
in the county as to size and beauty of
structure is Booker T. Washington High
School, whose smooth operation and
outstanding beautification program under
its principal, S. Meredith Mosely, is a
credit to our system. Opening its doors
as a high school in September, 1927, the
school has made rapid and enviable
progress in all departments in which it
has been represented. Its history is
replete with accounts of notable success
of a large per cent of its hundreds of
graduates of comparable scholastic
standards, of honors won in state and
national oratorical and literary
contests, of laurels attained by state
championship teams in football and
basketball, of pride with which medals
and cups repeatedly won in state musical
contests are displayed in the school's
trophy case and countless other 1
contributions to the state community.
Research into the records of the minutes of the
Dade County School Board of the 1920's indicate
that Booker T. Washington High School was viewed
as a center of activities by the black community.
By the 19301s, black thespians and entertainers
from nationwide performed in the Booker T.
Washington High School auditorium. The quality
of literature, oratorical contests, concerts and
drama presented during matinees likened this
school to a center of the performing arts. No
place else in greater Miami presented such a
variety of cultural activities to black youth on a
continuous basis.

puoiication of the National Association of the
Advancement of Colored People, March 1942, p. 91.

The 1940's propelled Booker T. Washington High
School into new roles. Weekly voter registration
rallies were held in the auditorium. Citizens
county -wide attended to hear speakers extol the
need for the black community to register to vote.
The•school served as a meeting place for black and
white groups engaged in interracial discussions.
Except for a few churches, Booker T. Washington
High School was the only other place where blacks
and whites could meet without the fear of being
arrested. Under the leadership of Miss Marie D.
Roberts, Booker T. Washington High School became
the first in the state of Florida to offer a
Humans Relations course.
Throughout the 1940's, 50's and early 60's this
school continued as the central focus of the
community.

ARCHITECTURAL DESCRIPTION
Booker T. Washington represents a typical example
of Masonry Vernacular architecture in Dade County
of the 1920 s. The 79ililding is architecturally
noteworthy for its classical details, and
adaptability to South Florida's tropical climate.
The building, has a central block plan,
surrounding a courtyard, with symmetrical wings.
The stuccoed exterior has a plain masonry coping
along the parapet. Rectangular masonry slabs with
flower-like decorations are symmetrically placed
under the parapet on the front (south facade).
The central parapet on the south facade has an
eagle resting on a ball, placed in an open book at
each side.
Of significant historical note is the presence of
numerous "Artist Project" plaster wall plagues
from the 19301s. These bas relief plaques depict
scenes in education and family life. They are
noteworthy for their association with a period of
history and should be preserved.
Other significant features and artifacts at the
building include a bust of the school's namesake
Booker T. Washington and several monuments
commemorating events and people at the school.

Booker T. Washington Junior High School, located
at 1200 Northwest 6th Avenue, is situated in the
west central portion of Miami's "Overtown" area.
The school is figuratively isolated from the
majority of historical overtown service area.
Booker T. Washington is situated adjacent to the
Highland Park and Culmer neighborhoods, each with
their own identity, land use patterns, ethnic and
socio-economic characteristics.
�.�- In addition to the school, other major public
IV institutions in the Culmer area include the
Municipal Justice Building at N.W. llth Street
.: and N.W. 12th Avenue which houses offices for the
Departments of Human Resources and Citizen
Services; the Culmer Community Center at N.W. Sth
Avenue and N.W. llth Street; and the Dade County
Women's Detention Center at N.W. 14th Street and
N.W. 7th Avenue.

LAoD USE
Land uses around the school are predominantly
residential, with the highest density structures
located east of N.W. 7th Avenue. South of the
school are two recently constructed housing
developments: Culmer Village Townhouses and
-
Culmer Place provide more than 236 new housing
units. In Highland Park, low density residential
uses are interspersed with vacant parcels. The
area's only high rise structure, Highland Tower,
�~
is an elderly housing project consisting of 104
units built in 1976.
`t
The Culmer Station of the Metro Rail, located at
N.W. 7th Avenue and N.W. llth Street, will become
a major transit focus in the area upon its opening
w`
scheduled for 1984. The station is designed to
serve approximately 8500 patrons daily. The
stations opening will increase automobile and
pedestrian traffic in the neighborhood and serve
to stimulate new commercial activity. There are
numerous vacant parcels surrounding Booker T.
".W
Washington where development or redevelopment
could occur.
Several structures in the area are dilapidated
and adjacent uses including warehousing and
trucking businesses are inconsistent with
residential development. Since 1970, there have
been numerous demolitions of single family and
duplex units because of the continuing economic
pressure to seek redevelopment of higher density
apartments permitted by zoning, and the decreasing
ability of many residents to maintain or improve
aging homes.

stations opening will increase automobile and
pedestrian traffic in the neighborhood and serve
to stimulate new commercial activity. There are
numerous vacant parcels surrounding Booker T.
Washington where development or redevelopment
could occur.
Several structures in the area are dilapidated
and adjacent uses including warehousing and
trucking businesses are inco
nsistent with
residential development. Since 1970, there have
been numerous demolitions of single family and
k. duplex units because of the continuing economic
pressure to seek redevelopment of higher density
apartments permitted by zoning, and the decreasing
ability of many residents to maintain or improve
aging homes.

Retail services do exist near the school, but are
limited to small businesses, and represent only
the remains of a the origina•1 larger business
community. Both the declining incomes of area
residents and the relocation of many families due
to urban• renewal have deprived surrounding
businesses of essential market support, forcing
shops and services out of the area. Only a few
building vacancies exist, however, due to the
limited number of.remaining commercial structures
in the area.
ZONING
The amount of existing residential, commercial and
industrial development in the area is below the
holding capacity of current zoning. Zoned
capacities for residential units (8748) are almost
double the existing number (4616). Existing
commercial floor space of 600,000 square feet is a
fraction of the four million square feet permitted
by zoning.
The areas major arterial, N.W. 7th Avenue, is
zoned liberal commercial and industrial (C-5, C-4,
C-2, I-1). The neighborhoods south and west are
zoned R-3 and R-4 to accommodate moderate to nigh
density residential use.
Although community and local commercial uses
(C-2) are permitted along portions of N.W. 7th
Avenue and N.W. llth Street, the development of
these zones has been very limited.
Over the past seven years there has been little
pressure from the private sector for zoning
changes, but changes have been made to
accommodate publicly programmed renewal efforts.

CI1...JLATION
The major access roads in the area are N.W. 7th
Avenue, N.W. 14th Street and N.W. llth Street.
N.W. llth Street is presently the westbound leg of
a one-way pair, with N.W. loth Street, from N.W.
8th Street Road. One proposal to improve access
to the Culmer transit station recommends widening
N.W. llth Street between N.W. 7th Avenue and N.W.
8th Street Road to allow two-way circulation and
left turns into the station. Other proposed
circulation modifications include realignment of
N.W. 11th Street Road so that it intersects N.W.
11th Street at right angles; and realignment of
the proposed westbound lane of N.W. llth Street
west of N.W. 7th Avenue with N.W. llth Street
.F.
east of N.W. 7th Avenue.

DtvELOPMENT TRENDS
Most of the recent construction activity in the
area has been publicly financed residential
development. Since 1975 both housing for the
elderly ("Highland Park Tower") and family public
housing ("Culmer Place") have been built. The
amount of recent private investment has been
limited.
Older singly family homes have been demolished
g Y Y
and replaced with either duplex units or low-rise
., apartment buildings.
Since 1970 there has been a decline in retail and
service uses. The area lacks commercial vitality
and people cannot satisfy convenience shopping
needs near their homes or place of employment.
On the whole, recent development has been
sporadic and has not significantly altered the
physical character of the area.
The'area surrounding the Culmer Station appears to
offer many redevelopment opportunities. The rapid
t
`
transit system now under construction is expected
r
to enhance the attractiveness of the area for
development. The majority of redevelopment
at
anticipated for the area will be residential.
Recent studies have indicated a significant demand
T..f
for housing to serve both the Civic Center and
Medical Center complexes.

The exterior condition of the buildings appears to
be fair. Minor cracking appears in the stucco but
evidence of major problems is not apparent. The
south facade of original structure requires
painting and new windows.
The interior condition of the buildings is poor.
Physical condition as well as State standards
mandate extensive renovation.
EXISTING STRUCTURAL SYSTEM
The original building, constructed in 1926, is
approaching the end of its useful life as a
structure. In 1976, this building was estimated
to have a remaining useful life of 10 years.
Since 1976, subsequent inspections, have confirmed
this useful life estimate. Present findings
evidence the continued cracking and spalling of
the concrete and the deterioration of the
reinforcing steel in the original building. The
other buildings, constructed subsequent to the
1926 structure are in good structural condition
and evidence no such spalling. The remaining
structural life on these facilities is estimated
to be between 25 and 35 years.
The original structure shows evidence of concrete
made with either beach sand or bay bottom sand.
These sands contain high percentages of salt which
react with steel reinforcing bars. As aresult
there is progressive deterioration of steel.
This condition reduces the steel's ability to
perform its structural function and spalls the
surrounding concrete as it corrodes and expands.
The entire structural system of the original
building is composed of a reinforced concrete
framework of footings, columns, beams and floor
slabs that have exhibited continuing deterioration
of the steel reinforcing bars. -
The following has been excerpted from -structural
inspections conducted over the past several years.

b RUCTURAL ANALYSIS
Concrete made with either beach or bay bottom sand
contains high percentages of sodium chloride
(common salt). The reinforcing steel in the
concrete reacts with the sodium chloride forming
rust which; (1) reduces the steel available to
perform its structural function; and (2) breaks
off or splits (spalls) the concrete as the rust
scale increases and forces the concrete away from
the reinforcing steel, destroying the concrete and
its ability to perform its structural function.
The amount of moisture present affects the rate of
deterioration.
Concrete elements containing reinforcing, in the
original building make up the entire structural
framework of footings, columns, beams, and floor
slabs. They are prone to, and have exhibited the
rusting deterioration of the reinforcing and the
spalling of the concrete.
The Inspection Reports of 1974, 1976, 1977 and
1981, provide a litany of observed cracks,
spalling and rusted reinforcement. The inspection
visits of 1977 and 1982 confirm the situation.
The repairs of 1977 and earlier, corrected only
immediate visible deficiencies.
For example, window replacement in 1977 exposed
severe rusting of reinforcing and spalling of the
concrete beam bottoms at the window head.
Concrete was chipped away from the reinforcing,
additional reinforcing bars added, and new
concrete placed by pneumatic methods. In the case
of portions of the first floor (in part) however,
repair was not economically possible. The floor
was demolished earth fill provided and a concrete
floor cast on the fill.

Tests conducted in 1974 by Pittsburgh Testing
Laboratory determined concrete strengths by means
of cores, and by means of chemical and microscopic
analysis determined the cement content, sodium
chloride content and the nature of the fine
aggregate. Without exception, every core of the
1926 structure showed the fine aggregate to be bay
bottom sand, beach sand or both. The salt content,
exposed as a percentage of the cement context runs
from 0.46% to 1.32%. These percentages may be
related to a threshold of 0.15%, which percentage
is suggested by American Concrete Institute
Publication ACI 201.2 R-77, "Guide to Durable
Concrete" as the percentage above which
difficulties may occur because of the chloride
content. The samples show salt contents 3 to 7
times the threshold quantity. The tests are
summarized in Table I and II which follows.
The concrete strengths, ranging from 1870 P.S.I.
to 2070 P.S.I. are not distressing with respect to
strengths alone. Though those strengths in the
order of 2000 P.S.I. seem low by today's stand-
ards, design strengths of 2000 P.S.I. were common
in the past. of more concern is the fact that the
concrete is not dense thereby allowing easy
moisture penetration to the reinforcing.

One should not compare the possible restoration of
this structure to the successful restoration of a
portion of Redlands Junior Hig�- School in 1978.
The concrete in the Redlands School did not
contain significant amounts of chlorides; it was
made of'fresh water aggregates. Continuing
deterioration due to chloride was not a factor.
That structure was stripped of all plaster,
furring, wood and ceilings to expose all
concrete. Footings were exposed. Concrete core
tests were made to determine strength adequacy and
a portion of the second floor was tested with a
static dead load test.
Dueto the chloride, the structure of the original
:
1926 building cannot be restored. It must be
replaced; footings, columns, beams, stairs, the
first, second, third floor systems, and to roof
system, all of which are concrete.

EXISTING HEATING, VENTILATING AND AIR CONDITIONING
SYSTEMS
HEATING
The original building and the library/adminis-
tration building are heated by a boiler located on
the western side of the administration building.
Hot water is circulated by a direct driven pump
with a 7.5 HP motor, to: ceiling hung unit
heaters and floor mounted radiators in classrooms;
to hot water coils in the air handling unit
serving the administration area and the library;
and to three high level wall mounted unit heaters
in the Auditorium. Areas with no heating include
the shop and band room (shop/music bldg).
The south classroom addition to the original
building is provided with heat by its own boiler
and water circulating pump. Terminal units are
ceiling hung "Young" unit heaters. Heating
capacity is adequate.
Ventilation
The auditorium is in the original building,
ventilated by means of 2, 48" wall mounted
propeller fans on its southeast and southwest
entrances.
The kitchen has two means of air extraction. A
30" wall type propeller fan for general
ventilation and a 30" in -line duct fan attached
to main kitchen extractor hood.
The Gymnasium locker rooms have a 3 wall fans in
the girl's locker, and 2 wall fans in the boys'
locker.
Air Conditioning
Air conditioned areas and their respective systems
are as follows:

both floors.
EXISTING PLUMBING SYSTEMS
The following conditions of the overall plumbing
system are extant at Booker T. Washington Jr. High
School:
- No lawn sprinkler irrigation system exists.
All grass areas are watered by hand.

- No laundry functions are done on the premises.
Existing equipment is not operable.
- All three (3) existing fuel oil fired boiler
units are operable and reported to be in good
working condition. The units are old (age
unknown at the time of this writing) but appear
very well maintained. The hot water storage
tank for gymnasium shower use is in extremely
good condition. No lack of hot water is
reported, for either domestic or kitchen use.
The plumbing has been well maintained and may have
life. This is only true of portions which are
visable, concealed pipes may be in relatively poor
condition.

1 EXISTING ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
{
SERVICE:
The school is served underground fr-.m the west.
The transformer vault, installed in 1971, serves
the adjacent switchgear room via two cubicles; one
a three-phase, 1200A main that feeds the old meter
room; the second cubicle feeds three mains, a
2-400, 2P and 1-600, 2P, for a total of four
mains. There is also a 3PSN-100 amps ahead of the
mains for the exit lights.
The electrical service has 120/240 volts,
three-phase, closed delta, 2-100 KVA and 1-167 KVA
transformers. Peak demand during the past two
years has been 300 KVA.
DISTRIBUTION:
Although the single-phase distribut4.3n throughout
the complex is adequate for small loads, the
availability of three-phase distribution for
bigger motors and air conditioning loads is very
limited. At the present time, there are several
pieces of equipment in the shops that cannot be
connected due to insufficient three-phase service.
The kitchen has insufficient capacity for its
present loads. The electrical service would have
to be increased to the three-phase, to take care
of the existing deficiency and for air
conditioning the auditorium and cafeteria.
The original building, including the south
classroom addition, is in adequate condition, but
does not meet, State requirements of a minimum of 4
outlets per classroom. The Science Labs, require
some reworking to bring them up to standards, such
as removing "over -the -floor" raceways, and adding
table outlets in the Biology lab.

If new air conditioning is to be installed, new
service will be required.
LIGHTING:
Lighting in corridors is very poor. Lighting in
classrooms is adequate but fixtures must be
refurbished. Lighting in the gy nasium, now
incandescent, should be changed to high intensity
discharge fixtures. The locker rooms should be
changed to fluorescent (unbreakable type).
Lighting in toilet rooms is very door and should
be changed to fluorescent (unbreakable).
Emergency lights also must be added as required.
The auditorium requires a new dr.:.-=er board and
sound system.
Emergency lighting: Exit lights are installed as
the only "emergency" system in the complex. As
per State requirements, corridors, kitchen, gang
toilets, stairways, totally enclosed student
occupied spaces and all places o: assembly must
have emergency lighting, which is presently
lacking.
Fire alarm system: There is none existing at
present time. A fire alarm system will have to he
installed to comply with State requirements.
PA system: There is a console that according to
the school is working satisfactorily.
Clock system: There is a master =lock and prograr.
system, but most of the clocks are not functionir.=
properly.

EXISTING MAINTENANCE HISTORY
Maintenance records for the Booker T. Washingtcn
Junior High School were compiled to determine t=
buildings reoccurring problems. Records indicate
that the majority of expenditures for maintenance
have been for repair of the original 1926
structure.
Maintenance costs for the school between 1976 a-=
1981 are approximately $571,000 (not including
on -site, routine/daily maintenance). Of this
figure, approximately $409,000 is for renovation
and structural repairs.
Subtracting structural repairs, maintenance
figures for the 1976-1981 period are as follows:
1981
- $48,774
1980
- $52,818
1979
- $39,052
1978
- $ 8,844
1976
and
- $12,520
1977
Averaged over the six year period, annual
maintenance costs are approximately $27,000 per
year.
According to maintenance records, in 1974-75
structural renovations were carried out on the
north and east wings of the original 1926
building. Those repairs consisted of shoring tee
floors, jack hammering the lintel beams over the
windows to remove spalled concrete, and sand-
blasting and replacing steel reinforcing. Beams
were then reformed and a center support added to
the window openings. New concrete was poured an4-
new metal windows set in place. The wings were
then replastered and repainted on the interior and
exterior of the building. Work did not continue
on the south wing.
31
85--6'74 .
Yq
M
Expenditures for this work are estimated to be
$750,000.
Little maintenance, other than routine measures
necessary to keep the buildings open, have been
carried -out since the 1977 structural repairs. It
is of note that repairs carried out during that
period are now subject to cracking and spalling.

LAND AREA REQUIREMENTS
As stated in the Florida Administrative Code, 1978
Chapter 6A-2.39:
"A middle or Junior High School requires a minimum
of six (6) acres for the first three -hundred (300)
full time equivalent students, plus one (1) acre
for each additional one hundred students. Each
site shall contain the minimum number of acres as
identified above, unless a board may request and
receive approval of a waiver upon filing evidence
with the office that a site of that size is
impracticable in any given situation."
Therefore, a Junior High School for 1,400 students
should consist of:
6 acres = First 300 students
11 acres = Remaining 1100 students
17 acres minimum area required
Accordingly, an additional 4.13 acres is required
for a 1400 student school.

EXISTING SITE CONFIGURATION
The Booker T. Washington site and associated Dade
County Public Schools property presently consists
of 12.87 acres, exclusive of street areas. This
property is made up of three (3) tracts ( see :yap)
that may be described as:
1. The main parcel, (tract 1) the location of the
school buildings bounded on the north by N.W.
13th Street, south by N.W. llth Terrace, west
by the SCL railroad and east by 16th Avenue.
2. The north parcel, (tract 2) with two Dade
County School Board Maintenance Buildings and
two vacant, fenced areas used for P.E. programs
by the school. This tract is bounded on the
north, by N.W. 14th Street, south by N.W. 13th
Street, west by 7th Avenue, and east by 6th
Avenue. This tract is divided roughly 1/3, 2/3
by the SCL railroad.
3. The two vacant blocks (tract 3) to the east of
the existing school building. These are
bounded to the north by N.W. 13th Street, south
by N.W. llth Terrace, west by N.W. 6th Avenue
and east by N.W. 5th Street.
The acreage of these three tracts is:
Tract 1 = 3.71 acres
Tract 2 = 6.59 acres
Tract 3 - 2.57 acres

EXISTING SPATIAL FACTORS
The following space analysis represents a
comparison of State requirements to existing
conditions. The DCPS facility list was used as
the basis for the comparison. The existing size
of the spaces in grades 7-9 and exceptional
education classes are not sufficient to
accommodate a 1,400 student body. Further, there
are no language arts or mathematic classroom
areas. The vocational areas of construction,
manufacturing, home economics and sales/marketing,
are adequate. The following table illustrates:

CONCLUSIONS
On the basis of inspection and laboratory analysis
it is recommended that the original 1926 building
be demolished. The remaining facilities at the
school are in good condition and capable of being
recycled or incorporated into a new facility.
This conclusion is made on the basis of the
structural condition report in this section and
Appendix D and E. This report has concluded that
the remaining life expectancy of the 1926
structure is only 2-3 years and that it is not
feasible to extend this structures life beyond
that point. This is due to the progressive and
irreversible corrosion of the reinforcing steel by
excessive levels of chlorides within the concrete.
Therefore, the alternatives that follow are based
upon the removal of the 1926 structure and its
replacement with various building and site
configurations.

85-674 -S 7
FACILITY ALTERNATIVE A
1*161CIZIM
This alternative removes the original 1926
structure and replaces its 43,988 square feet wi'..'
a 76,.650 square foot facility which incorporates
all additions (gym, music/shop, south class. -cam
wing, and library/admin).
SUMMARY:
This building alternative offers the following
potentials:
Maximum utilization of existing, structurally
sound facilities.
Minimizes new construction.
Offers the potential to "rebuild" the plan of
the present BTW in place of the existing
structurally deteriorated building.
Offers the possibility of retaining the
existing facade of BTW and incorporating it
into the new facility design.
from the
This building alternative is advantageous .f6
standpoint that it minimizes new construction and
maximizes the reuse of existing facilities. The
new building program for this alternative would
entail only 71,556 square feet, while the
remaining facilities would be renovated. This
option also offers the possibility of
reconstructing a new school similar to the
existing BTW, that may be able to encorpokate the
original 1926 facade.

{ The disadvantages of this alternative arise from
making a variety of connections to floor
elevations of existing classrooms and facilities.
This may pose special problems in design and
construction, as building material dimensions and:
standards have altered over the years, which wou:!
make matching floor heights somewhat more
difficult than all new construction.
The prime advantage, though to this alternative is
cost. This building option will be less than
total new construction. This is due to the cost
of renovation verses new construction. This is
which is estimated to be approximately one-half
the square foot price.
COST ESTIMATE
The cost of new construction is estimated to be
$84.00 per square foot. The cost of renovation s
estimated to be $40.00 per square foot. These
figures are based upon the most recent experience
in new construction and renovation for school
facilities of this type.

The disadvantages of this alternative arise from
connecting the existing facilities into the new
structure. The most difficult connection of this
proposal would be to incorporate the library/
administration building into the new construction.
This is not viewed as a serious problem as the
library/administration building is of recent
construction. This building could readily be
intergrated into the new building or function as a
separate building. The other facilities to be
retained are self contained buildings connected by
covered walkways.
The principal advantage of this alternative is its
recycling of three existing buildings. By reusing
these facilities the cost of providing comparable
new school space will be lessened.
COST ESTIMATE
The cost of new construction is estimated to be
$84.00 per square foot. The cost of renovation is
estimated to be $40.00 per square foot. These
figures are based upon the most recent experience
in new constrution and renovation for school
facilities of this type.

FACILITY ALTERNATIVE C
PROGRAM
This alternative removes the original 1926
structure, the 1959 south classroom addition and
the 1952 music and shop building; replacing that
71,590 square feet area with 104,252 square feet
of new construction. This alternative•
incorporates the remaining gymnasium and library/
administration building.
DEVELOPMENT POTENTIALS
This building alternative offers the following
potentials:
- Utilization of two existing structures on site.
- Allows a very flexible building envelope for
new construction.
- Allows for the construction of new facilities
in a two story configuration.
- Offers the potential for retaining the original
1926 front facade if practical.
- Minimizes connection problems with existing
buildings.
This building alternative, like Alternative B,
minimizes the problems associated with connecting
new construction to existing buildings. Only the
library/administration building must be made to
interface with the new facility. The gymnasium
would remain a separate building. As with each
building alternative proposed, the 1926 original
front facade could possibly be incorporated into
the new facility design.

The disadvantages of this alternative are
essentially the same as those of facility
alternative B. In this option, however, the
building envelope is more flexible due to the
removal of the shop/music building. The primary
disadvantage though can be viewed as cost. The
fewer existing facilities that are recycled the
higher the total cost of the school.
The principal advantage of this alternative, and
those following it, is the flexibility of the
building envelope. As connections to existing
buildings are eliminated, the contraints on
building placement or position decrease. This has
obvious advantages of allowing maximization of
solar orientation for both passive and active
systems. Consideration should be given to using
the original 1926 front facade as a solar screen,
as well as a historical foil to the new
construction.
COST ESTIMATES
The cost of new construction is estimated to be
$84.00 per square foot. The cost of renovation is
estimated to be $40.00 per square foot. These
figures are based upon the most recent experience
in new construction and renovation for school
facilities of this type.

FACILITY ALTERNATIVE D
�•t•�i�;f�i
This alternative removes all structures associated
with existing facilities, except for t::e 23,822
square foot library/administration building which
is incorporated with 122,417 square feet of new
construction to form the complex described above.
DEVELOPMENT POTENTIALS
This building alternative is essentially the same
as alternative C, save for more floor area devoted
to new construction.
Advantages and disadvantages may be considered the
same as those presented in Facility Alternative C,
save for sightly enhanced site flexibility.
COST ESTIMATE
The cost of new construction is estimated to be
$84.00 per square foot. The cost cf renovation is
estimated to be $40.00 per square foot. These
figures are based upon the most recent experience

FACILITY ALTERNATIVE E
PROGRAM
This alternative removes all existing facilities
and replaces them with a 146,239 square foot
Junior High School of all new construction.
DEVELOPMENT POTENTIALS
This building alternative is the most flexible
proposed as it has the entire site with which to
create the building envelope.
For all practical purposes this building
alternative is essentially the same as those
described in Facility Alternatives C and D, save
for the enhanced site flexibility achieved by
removing all existing buildings.
COST ESTIMATE
The cost of new construction is estimated to be
$84.00 per square foot. The cost of renovation is
estimated to be $40.00 per square foot. These
figures are based upon the most recent experience
in new construction and renovation for school
