Re: Bayfront Municipal Auditorium
Adaptive Use Study
Project No. R-1032-08
Dear Mr. Gary:
Ferendino/Grafton/Spillis/Candela is pleased to submit this preliminary report on the
adaptive use of Bayfront Municipal Auditorium for review and comment.
Funding for this report was made possible by grants from The National Endowment for the
Arts, Metropolitan Dade County, Office of Community and Economic Development and The
City of Miami. The study represents three months of coordination with The City of Miami,
Metropolitan Dade County, and the Downtown Development: Authority. During this period
this firm and our consultants, Laventhol & Horwath, C.P.A., have researched and developed
seven use alternatives for the rehabilitation of the building. In the de✓elopment of
alternatives the major consideration was the compatibility of a new use in an existing
` building with a developing downtown and a revitalized Bayfront Park. With a downtown
` perspective we have remained cognizant that these uses will be a part of our waterfront
setting. Therefore, we have sought uses that would expand the visibility and thus the
use of the building.

originally designed and constructed as recreational facilities for Military Service Personnel, Bayfront Municipal
Auditorium has undergone two major alterations and additions since its completion in 1939. The only graphic
documentation of the original building are the drawings produced for the construction of the adjacent Miami Social
Hall (1944). The drawings show the original facility in plan and elevation indicating original use as recreation
hall, lounge, kitchen, showers and locker room, and walled outdoor recreation area.
SOCIAL HALL 1944
r-
in 1944 architectural drawings were produced adding to the existing building a 2000 seat auditorium known as the
Miami Social Hall for Service Personnel. A War Public Works Project, project number B-291, M.M. Vaviloff was
PM the architect of record with the drawings prepared by the Department of Public Service, City of Miami, under
Wiiliam Sydow, Director.l
The plans indicate minor alterations to the existing red -tiled stucco recreation building.2 The walled out-
door recreation area was removed to make way for a patio surrounded by covered walkway ramps connecting the
recreations building to the new social hall.
The Miami Social Hall constructed to the east of recreation building with auditorim for 2000, stage, dressing
rooms, restrooms and lobby was designed in the streamlined, Art Moderne style similar to other buildings of the
era. The main hall was constructed of steel bow trusses spanning the 96'-0" width of the hall. The main entrance
was flanked by glass block windows with decorative pilasters rising to the top of the north elevation. Window
openings on the east and west facades, enclosed with wooden jalousies, were used for light and ventilation control.
The exterior of the building remains as designed, with stucco finish. Currently painted white, no immediate visual
evidence exists as to its original color.
ADDITIONS 6 ALTERATIONS 1950
In 1950 Robert Law Weed and Associates were contracted by the City of Miami to design alterations and additions
to the facility. The result was a new exhibition hall with a seating capacity for 500, entrance lobby, ticket
booths, kitchen, pantry, storage rooms, including air conditioning and alterations to the existing social hall.

IN'I'ROdUCTION
'i'hie inspection was undertaken as y p y • g y P
Y_. pe part of the Ba front Park Adaptive Use Stud The existing Ba front Complex
consists of three contiguous buildings which will be designated as buildings "A", "B" or "C" and are illustrated
on the accompanying floor plan:
-
1. Building A, main auditorium, is the easternmost of the three and was constructed ca. 1944. There is a
- column free area of approximately 100' x 100'. This building is used for conventions, expositions,
dances and social functions.
• 2. Building B is located between buildings A and C, and was constructed ca. 1950. It has a column free
�? area of approximately 75' x 90'. The building use is the same as Building A.
3. Building C is the westernmost of the three and was constructed ca. 1942. The building contains offices
and administrative areas.
The three buildings are effectively one (1) story high, although Buildings A and B have localized areas that are
more than one story. This is possible because the respective buildings have rather high ceiling heights.
STRUCTURAL SYSTEMS
Building A:
Foundation: Piling with pile caps and grade beams.
Ground Floor: Concrete slab on fill.
Exterior Wall: Masonry
Columns: Concrete - supporting roof; wood -supporting stage floor and miscellaneous platforms.
Intermediate Floors: Wood
..�,.. Primary Roof System: Steel trusses (arched shape) over auditorium; wood framing over stage.
Secondary Roof System: Steel purlins with wood plate on top, wood sheathing over auditorium, wood framing,
wood sheathing over stage.
Building B:
Foundation: Piling with pile caps and grade beams.
�-7- Ground Floor: Concrete slab on fill.
Exterior Wall: Masonry
!' Columns: Steel
�T Primary Roof System: Steel trusses
Secondary Roof System: Steel purlins and metal deck.

Foundation- unknown
Ground Floor: Concrete slab on fill
Exterior Wall: Masonry
Columns: unknown
} Primary and Secondary Roof System: Appears to be wood
Drawings were available for Buildings A and B, but not for Building C.
OBSERVATIONS
Building A:
1. Signs of foundation settlement were not observed.
}) 2. Definite signs of floor slab settlement were observed, especially adjacent to locations where drawings
indicate grade beams present. Cracks in the slab occur between the columns that support the roof
trusses. This crack line also occurs almost directly over a grade beam.
r
3. Exterior walls do not exhibit distress.
T 4. There is little or no evidence to indicate major water leakage from the roof. However, the southeast
corner of the building was observed to leak in heavy rains. Two rooms adjacent to the stage and
�ti►- housing mechanical equipment have rotted floor members. These two rooms are identified on the original
design drawings as "Property and Storage" and "Chorus Dress Room".
5. The roof trusses, purlins and sheathing all appear to be in good condition over the auditorium.
b. The stage floor is in good condition with the exception of one floor joist that has been partially
damaged by water.
7. There is a firlocated

3. The eave at the southwest corner of the building is damaged.
j 4. Items not specifically mentioned were observed as satisfactory (see further note under recommendations).
CONCLUSION
f
The existing buildings appear to be generally in very good condition structurally. Continued use may be
anticipated contingent upon the satisfactory incorporation of the following recommendations.
RECOMMENDATIONS
1. Building A:
r ' r
a. Rebuild the mechanical equipment room floors noted under observation #4.
In .reference to the air conditioning system at subject facility, the writer visited the site on March 23, 1981
i1f d shade the following observations:
Two built-up air handing units presently serve the main auditorium. V-shaped filter sections are located
r in the walls behind the return air grilles. The room is used as a return air plenum. Additional filters
are located behind the air handling unit.
i The conditions of the units is generally poor with the following conditions noted:
a. The outside air damper is completely corroded and needs to be replaced.
i
`'w►' b. Corrosion exists on the fans.
c. The plenum inside the air handlers needs to be replaced.
d. Insulation is in very poor condition.
e. The floor of the units is badly deteriorated.
f. Controls (Honeywell) appear to be extremely old.
g. A tag on the unit indicated that service is or has been accomplished by Miami Air Conditioning,
(Phone OX6-0480).
I Sheetmetal ductwork is used to supply six sidewalk registers and five round ceiling diffusers for each
MP- air handler. The lobby is not air conditioned.
2. The small auditorium is served by an air handler hung from the ceiling in a room which is used as a
*.. return air plenum. This unit had no filters and the room was used for storage of chemicals, paper, etc.
which is in violation of the building code. This room was also covered with asbestos fiber insulation
which has been found to be a health hazard. This unit is connected to four round diffusers serving the
space.
1
3. The offices are served by an old GE 'DX' air conditioning unit (2 compressors) in which it was observed
that the canvas connection needed replacement.
4. The space currently used by Immigration is served by an old Worthington air conditioning unit.

15 The refrigeration equipment is housed in a separate room adjacent to the cooling towers. Four units are
installed each with 2 compressors manufactured by Baker Ice Machine Company - Omaha, Nebraska. Each
motor is rated 60 HP.
6. Three coolingtowers with 1
plywood panels are located outside on the south side of the building. The
entire area was flooded and unaccessible. The walls adjacent to this installation showed signs of water
,
presence of a brownish color.
( SUMMARY OF CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
q q pment is old and obsolete. It should be replaced with a more energy efficient system4'
Ingeneral, the equipment
consisting of a water-cooled chiller plant which will generate chilled water to be distributed to air handling
units in the building. The air side will consist of a variable air volume system which, during part load
operation, utilizes only the amount of air required to cool the space, saving fan energy horsepower.
`
The air handing units serving the two auditoriums should be equipped with a high -efficiency filtration system
'j
which allows the use of less outside air, resulting in lower operating costs._
A preliminary load calculation indicates a requirement of 150 tons of refrigeration. Two water-cooled reci-
procating chillers should be selected. These chillers will be housed in a room with an approximately size of
I 24' x 161. Two cooling towers will be located outside the building and the necessary chilled water and condenser
water pumps will be located in the above mentioned chiller room.
The only code violation (HVAG Discipline) that was observed has been referenced in paragraph 2 of ,-his report.
`
The preliminary cost estimate to add a new air conditioning system, including demolition of existing equipment,'
is $350,000.'

A site investigation of the existing facility was made on Tuesday, March 31, 1981. The following are this
writer's observations:
1. The complex consists of two auditoriums separated by a folding partition. Toilet facilities are provided
for public use and separate toilets for the use of the main performer and/or performers. The easternmost
auditorium (Caribbean Room) has been used to seat 2000 persons. The westernmost auditorium (Gulfstream
Room) seats a total of 800 persons. There is an equipment basement below the fixed stage of the west
auditorium.
2. Per South Florida Building Code this building is defined as Group 'A' occupancy for occupant content of
over 1000 persons.
3. Toilet facilities for men and women are located in such arrangement that they are easily reached by
occupants of both auditoriums. Total number of fixtures in some instances do not meet current code
requirements. No provisions for use of fixtures by physically handicapped persons were observed.
'! 4. We were verbally informed that no record of serious plumbing problems, such as stoppages, were reported
and adequate water pressure has always been maintained.
5. One very serious infraction with disaster potential was observed. That is the total and absolute lack
of fire protection. Even though fire hose cabinets are adequately provided, only one had a hose connected
r- and even though fire extinguisher cabinets are also provided, none had extinguishers in them. Regardless
of the outcome of this report and any subsequent actions, this lack of fire protection on a place of
public assembly is a serious threat to the health and safety of occupants.
�- 6. The condition of fixtures in general is acceptable. Toilet seats need replacement. Trim in lavatories
requires sporadic replacement and several flush valves also. Self closing lavatory valves, if requiring
replacement, shall be replaced with same function type trim for water conservation purposes. Additional
e- fixtures are needed for the performers' use.
7. The kitchen area, south of the Guifstream Room, needs substantial replacement of several pieces of equip-
ment. Range and oven hoods require fire protection capabilities. At this time, we are not questioning
the kitchen size ability to serve any determined amount of persons, or the adequacy of equipment as well
as its arrangement within the area. A kitchen consultant will be more able to make such determination.
r" 8. Our recommendations will be presented as a summary followed by two cost estimates. One to make existing
;,r work meet minimum code requirements and one for additional work recommended by this report.

P"
A survey of the existing electrical system in the referenced project was made on Monuay, marcn zip iyui. wne
following was noted:
1. The building contains 2 auditoriums separated by a folding partition. The east auditorium contains a
fixed, working stage and has been seating 2000 people. The west auditorium has no fixed stage and can
seat 800 people. There is a basement below the fixed stage of the west auditorium. This, clearly, places
the building in occupancy Group A as per South Florida Building Code and NFPA 101. The building has
no sprinkler system of any kind, anywhere.
2. For buildings of occupancy Group A, the South Florida Building Code and NFPA 101 require "Class I" emer-
gency lighting, which is either a standby generator or battery powered lighting.
3. The emergency lighting, egress lighting and exit signs existing in the building, including the standby
generator itself, are not nearly adequate to meet the requirements of the South Florida Building Code,
National Electrical Code and NFPA 101.
4. The area below the stage is not allowed to be used for any purpose other than the working of traps or
other mechanical apparatus necessary for a stage performance. A gasoline driven standby generator and
all the electrical equipment (mostly fused switches and small load center type panelboards) in the room
below the stage would, therefore, have to be relocated, as per South Florida Building Code, Chapter 6,
Section 607.0(a)(2).
T
5. The electrical service to the building, the service equipment and almost all of the feeders and branch
circuits are in very poor condition and are unsafe for continued use. A large portion of the lighting
in the building is incandescent and not of the energy conserving type. Also, relamping is a high main-
tenance problem. The lighting levels in the building, generally, are not adequate for the intended use.
-.
The lighitng levels in many areas could be increased without increasing power consumption. The light
fixtures in almost all areas of the building are in a very poor state of repair. They should all be
replaced.
6. The existing room used to house the main service equipment is too small for this use and should be
enlarged to at least double its present capacity. The room is 5'-0" x 10'-10" inside and should be
minimum 10' x 12' for the main switchgear for this building. Also, the present location of the generator
-
is in violation of the code. A new, diesel engine driven generator should be provided (the existing
generator is gasoline) and a new room should be constructed for this use.
T
7. The existing stage lighting and the stage dimmer board have served their expected life and should all
be replaced, if it is intended to continue using the stage for theatrical performances. The existing
.�.,
dimmer board does not appear to be safe for continued use - especially on the wood stage floor.
A'fire and smoke "detection" system (not alarm) should be installed in this building but without a general'
t=
J�x�f�_:" ► Aygtem (fire alarm audible signals are prohibited in the auditorium by NFPA 101, Chapter 8, Section s
i a-3.511.4(e)).
, the fire and smoke detection system should sound an audible alarm (low level buzzer and light) in the r }`
a�r y manager's office (or other suitable enclosed room where someone would be present during the time the auditorium
is in use). NFPA 101 (Chapter 8, Section E-3.5.1.4) requires a "fire control station" which is required
to haves
- Y
a) Monitor panel to show that emergency lighting and power circuits are energized. #_
b) A device to permit manual operation of sprinkler heads which would be located at the proscenium arch,
proscenium curtain and smoke vents.
. k
c) A monitor device to show that sprinkler valves are open and the sprinkler system pressurized.
.j d) A public address system energized from the normal and emergency power sources.
�y
' e) An alarm system connected to the manager's office, dressing rooms and auxiliary stage spaces (this
r
alarm is not allowed to be heard in the audience).

Deficit
' Sourcet Department of Marinas and Stadiums, City of Miamit
Laventhol i Horwath.
As the exhibit indicates, when all expenses, both direct
and allocated, are considered, Bayfront Park Auditorium has incurred
increasingly large annual deficits throughout the period considered.
However, the increase in the size of the deficit in 1960 as compared
with 1979 resulted from the fact that the facility was required to
bear a greater burden in terms of allocated expenses during the
I �
Y�{
lattde year. When only direct expenses are considered, the deficit
j r{
lliWrtred in bath fiscal years 1919 and 1980 approximated $194#500,
01
39
t
The principal allocated expense item is a contribution to
the office of the City of Miami's Director of Marinas and Stadiums.
This item accounted for the entire figure shown for allocated ex-
penses in fiscal years 1978 and 1979. In 1960, the contribution to
y
the Director's office represented $51,525 of the total. The remain-
ing $23,550 in allocated costs shown for 1980 resulted from a change
""wry%1
in the City of Miami's accounting procedures whereby revenue gener-
sting facilities such as Bayfront Park Auditorium began to also be
charged with expenses incurred by other departments of the City. Re-
"
gardless of the alternative use selected for Bayfront Park Audito-
p-
rium, including those in which the facility would be leased to non -
city users, the expenses which are being allocated to Bayfront Park
Auditorium would continue to be incurred by the City. Accordingly,
an assessment of the facility's prior history as well as alternative
future uses should properly only consider direct expenses.
exhibit 2 shows a breakdown of the direct expenses incurred
by Bayfront Park Auditorium during its last three fiscal years by
category of expense.

Personnel related expenses, including salary and wages,
fringe benefits and the expenses associated with the use of casual
labor, have accounted for just under 60 percent of total expenses
in each of the three fiscal years being considered. However, the
facility's utilization of people has improved. During 1980, the
facility housed 208 event days as compared with 144 event days in
1978 and a somewhat higher number in 1979. Despite this increase in
event days, the amount spent for salary and wages and casual labor
in 1980 was less than that incurred in either 1978 or 1979.

Wbets to promote greater efficiency also appear to have
�H
,r
b6ihO results in the area of utility expense. Specifically, while
event days increased by 44 percent between 1978 and 1980, utility ex-
penses increased by only 20 percent, despite the rapid rise in utili-'
ty rates which occurred during the period. Throughout the period,'!
j
utilities have accounted for between 15.9 and 18.7 percent of total
direct expenses.
f
Repairs and maintenance accounted for approximately 15 per-
cent of total direct expenses in 1970 and 1979. In 1980, only 10
percent of direct expenses were associated with repairs and mainte-
nance. Further, the dollar amount spent decreased sharply from
o
$40,317 in 1979 to $27,707 in 1980. This decrease does not, however,
appear to relate to increased efficiency; rather, the facility was
r,l
even more neglected than had been in prior years with the results
that the deterioration process already underway was accelerated.
During 1980, no major repair work was undertaken as a matter of#ts.
policy.
Expenditures in all other categories with the exception of
s
insurance increased between 1979 and 1980. However, the increases
appear to have been the result of either the Auditorium's increased
utilization, inflation or both.

8«...Lulwt- q, CONDITION SUMMARY
ate ptee
edifig architectural and engineering evaluations indicate that Bayfront Municipal Auditorium is
i good condition for its age, however, a variety of minimum code requirements exist as well as rehabilitation
ItecoMendations that would benefit any new or existing use.
In general the facility's architectural elements require general repair and maintenance finishes. Patching,
repair and repainting of the majority of interior & exterior, as well as replacement of architectural
specialties (and acoustical barriers, doors, windows and other openings (i.e. louvers & units) require repair
or replacement.
Structurally the building is in good condition with minor patching & repair. Lighting in general is old
and inefficient and demand replacement for greater illumination and electric efficiency. The mechanical
systems require total replacement to provide dependable, efficient output. Maintenance repairs on the
existing system are extremely high producing a drain on the buildings maintenance budget. Plumbing requires
minimum upgrading including retro-fitting for the handicapped.
Architectural $760,000.00
Structural Repairs 5,000.00
Mechanical Replacement 350,000.00
Plumbing Repairs/Replacements 118,400.00
Electrical Repairs/Replacements 292,000.00
Total Renovation Program: $1,525,400.00
Renovation Costs: $40.00/s.f.
` Note: Renovation costs for specialized uses or tenant improvements, however two such items should be noted:
r
a. Offices $25.00/s.f. added to;the $40.00/s.f. _ $65.00/s.f.

creation of small meeting or break-out rooms would permit the facility
to attract approximately 100 80811 meetings, luncheons and receptions
annually that would solely use those facilities and an additional
but unspecified number of large events that would use them in combina-

'
` h rate structure for the first two facilities has not been
f 31
finalised+ as shown in Exhibit 1, but it is anticipated that it will
be considerably higher than that at Bayfront Park Auditorium. The
rate structures at Gusman Cultural Center and Dade County Auditorium
are also higher. Rates at Joseph Caleb Community Center are lower
than at Bayfront Park Auditorium and a substantial number of events
held at the Auditorium could be accommodated at that facility. The
i
i
Joseph Caleb Community Center's less centralized location is a draw-
back with the facility.
A number of hotels located in downtown Miami have facil-
ities which could accommodate activities held in Bayfront Park Audi-
torium. A description of these facilities is shown in Exhibit 3.
These hotels also have small meeting rooms not presently available
at Bayfront Park Auditorium. Review of Exhibit 3 shows that rental
rates for the larger spaces in the hotels surveyed, including the
DuPont Plaza, Omni and Hotel Intercontinental are equal to or greater
than those charged at eayfront Park Auditorium. It should be further
noted that while these hotels do provide food and beverage service
for the social events held at the Auditorium, the costs associated
would typically be higher for many of the users, since a substantial
number self -cater. This would not be permitted in the hotels.

`►�' Efficiency of any operation is based in part upon the physical environment in which activities must take place.
Bayfront Municipal Auditorium is no exception.
:►.
Building efficiency is based upon the ability to maximize the frequency and the amount of space that can be put
j
in use for income producing purposes. Bayfront currently is under utilized for several reasons related to the
rr .�
condition of the building. The following is an overview of those reasons and possible solutions to increased
efficiency.
1. Acoustical Barriers
The two main exhibition/auditorium function rooms are situated side by side with an inadequate folding curtain
that does not prevent sound from traveling into the adjacent meeting facility. If a new acoustical barrier
was provided to promote sound isolation, both 2000 seat and 800 seat rooms could be used simultaneously.
`
This would automatically increase the facility's ability to program more events. According to the current
operation management, Bayfront Auditorium could increase use approximately 30% by providing acoustical
barriers.
r-
2. Meeting Room Sizes
T.-
Currently the only two spaces in the auditorium now available for rent are the Caribbean Room, seating 2000,
and the Gulfstream Room, seating 800, cxr combined can seat 3000 people.
Requests for smaller 50 to 250 person events are eliminated from use of the facility because two spaces
i
(approximately 3000 S.F.) that are capable of meeting this need are currently housing a church related refugee
.' .-
relief program and the Haitian and Cuban Refugee Program by Dade County.
�^
Renovation of these spaces (C-129 and C-136) for meeting and seminar rooms could increase the revenue of the
+
facility without increasing permanent staff.
3. Mechanical Systems
?~
As indicated in the Mechanical Systems Evaluation (1.5a) the present equipment is old and obsolete. The
..
replacement of the entire system would provide a long range savings in energy costs due to lower operating
costs. Maintenance costs would be considerably lower than present due to the high maintenance this old
system requires.
`
4. Electrical Systems
Presently the majority of the lighting in the auditorium is incandescent which is high in energy consumption.
Relamping, is also a high maintenance item that would be reduced by alternative light sources. Lighting
levels should be increased to accommodate the wide programmed uses. This could be accomplished without increased

Future Need identification
for almost 100 years citizens and government have sought to resolve the issues and controversies
of the use and development of Bayfront Park. The auditorium building stands as a physical reminder
of the park's history when these facilities were developed for social and recreational activities.
Bayfront Municipal Auditorium serves basically the same purpose as it did in the 30's and 401s, however,
it is now handicapped by outdated and antiquated facilities. It, therefore, cannot demand what other§
facilities charge. Currently, the demand for space stems from groups and organizations who prefer
�*+ the central location and below average rental rates.
The growth of downtown Miami with current construction estimated at $450 million and another $700
million proposed, will bring more people who will require additional recreational and leisure -time
facilities. As the permanent and transient residential population increases, the auditorium's central,
water -oriented location makes it more desirable for public and/or private development, especially
as it relates to the potential link with the new Bayfront Park scheme by Noguchi; the proximity to
the F.E.C. property; and the contemplated development of the Miamarina site.
The auditorium has approximately 38,000 square feet on prime real estate within a growing downtown.
The value of this building can be calculated in terms of replacement cost. If construction of 38,000
square feet were to be contemplated to replace the auditorium, the cost could approximate ?4.5 million.
Through renovation/rehabilitation the cost for retrofitting potential new uses could range between
$2 and $2.5 million. The incentive of cost savings is enhanced by the preservation of an existing
structure which is a part of the evolution of the waterfront and Bayfront Park. The building is
a link with the past, but more important, it has the ability to serve a new community purpose as
well as become a part of new development contemplated for Bayfront Park and Miamarina.

B. Community Planning Seminars held March 30 & 31, 1981:
On Monday, March 30 and Tuesday March 31, 1981 members of the project team including
Downtown Development Authority, The Department of Stadiums & Marinas, and the archi-
tectural firm, Perendino/Grafton/Spillis/Candela met with interested pi:tizens to gather
-their input as to the potential use of the facility. The group heard a variety of use
alternatives which are recorded and are on file with the Dowtown Development Authority.
Response to the seminar was approximately thirty people each day.

The general concensus of those who visited the auditorium was to keep the building either in its present
use or modified to accept a new use. The variety of uses proposed included a tourism exhibition center,
including a 1".-oursit-oriented media show, health maintenance facilities, art education and galleries as
well as tempovary facilities for the Maritime Museum.
The results of separate meetings with interest parties have generated the following use alternative(s)
from programs and space requirements supplied by them. These compatible uses have been designated under
the Alternate Programming Scenarios.
The following suggestions were provided by our survey:
-tear the building down
-integrate Bayfront Auditorium with Miamarina and Bayfront Park
-maintain the building for its current use
-use for concert and recital functions
-use in conjunction with a waterfront market
-use as a museum

Via by civic organizations, businesses, as well as family oriented activities, i.e., family reunions and weddings,
hive been requested on a regular basis. The current available spaces are too large and unsuited for gatherings
within this range. The result would be an upgrading of the existing facilities now used by the two refugee relief;

tAtin American visitors; the Port of Miami; and situated in the new Bayfront Park scheme, the auditorium has
a Central location for a tourist and transportation terminal.
The new Downtown Connector: Metrorail system will have two stations within a five minute walk from Bayfront
Municipal Auditorium. Taxi and bus service currently is available on Biscayne Boulevard at N.W. 5th Street
and is enroute to the Port of Miami. Limosine service is currently available from Miami International Airport
to the Port of Miami. Bayfront Auditorium is also within walking distance from the hotels along Biscayne Boulevard.
The Office of Information and Visitors could be housed in the'facility along with attrachions such as the..
multi -media production, and a restaurant as well as provide meeting rooms for conferences and civic functions
of up to 500 people. An additional incentive would be to draw the transportation and tourist oriented companies

{' Miaffil-Dade Community College has grown rapidly since 1970 when it first started programs in Downtown Miami.
Tie New World Center Campus is currently developing phase two of its construction program. However, the
Arts and Physical Education Programs of the college are still awaiting space for their particular programs.
Miami -Dade has proposed to use Bayfront Municipal Auditorium for one of two alternative uses. Both programs
are specifically addressed in their proposal reprinted in the Appendices Section of this report.
The Art Center concept would bring about a community oriented facility which would heighten the focus of an art/
sculpture garden within the proposed park just south of the Auditorium building. The center would include the
Frances Wolfson Art Gallery and the Mitchell Wolfson collection as well as studios for ceramics, painting, graphic
design, photography, 2-D design and crafts, and 3-D/sculpture studio.
In addition, Pratt Institute has expressed an interest in establishing a branch school in the Miami area which
could share teaching facilities within the Bayfront Municipal Auditorium without conflicts or competition because
of the variation in degree granting from the two institutions.
The resultant use of the Bayfront Municipal Auditorium could be:
A. Frances Wolfson Art Gallery ............................................. 5,750 s.f.
B. Ceramics/3-D Design & Sculpture Studio .................................. *5,000 s.f.
C. 2-D Design and Crafts Studio ............................................ 1,500 s.f.
D. Drawing and Painting Studio ............................................. 1,500 s.f.
F. Graphic Design & Darkroom ............................................... 2y000 s.f.
F. Slide/Lecture Room ...................................................... 750 s.f.

39,250 s.f.
*A portion of which can be accommodated in the service yard as outdoor/covered space.
This accounts for an area required above that which is currently available in the building.

' urida Maritime Museum has proposed the development of a portion of the deep rater slip on the

ALTERNATIVE 6:
MARITIME MUSEUM INTERIM FACILITIES (LEASED)
Alternative 7: Private Developer Participation
The use of Bayfront Municipal Auditorium may also be based upon the proposed development of Miamarina
by private development.
Bayfront Auditorium, situated directly West of the Miamarina site, could provide several options for the
City and potential developer alike in creating a commercial complex along the marina between Port Boulevard
and the Miamarina building to the Southeast. The options available deal with the incorporation of the
Auditorium with any development rights created by the City of Miami for the Miamarina property. The
following is a brief description of the auditorium's disposition in this regard:
1. Demolish Bayfront Municipal Auditorium
The removal of the auditorium would provide vacant land upon which a prospective developer could build
a new facility to link the Miamarina site with Biscayne Boulevard. The land could be leased to the
developer to provide revenue to the City of Miami.
2. Rehabilitation for City Specified Use
The developer could by development agreement be required to rehabilitate the auditorium for any of the
use alternatives 1, 2, 3 outlined in this report, on the other City specified use. By including
rehabilitation requirements in the development package, the Miamarina developer would provide the
- construction as specified by the City, creating the building renovations without City financing.
However, management and operation would remain with the City.
3. Rehabilitation for Developer Specified Use
The developer could by agreement be required to include the rehabilitated Bayfront Auditorium in the
development of the Miamarina site. The incentive with this option would be that the City would receive
a rehabilitated structure and possible ground lease revenues for use of the property by the developer.
4. City Rehabilitation to be.linked with Miamarina Development
The City of Miami could rehabilitate the auditorium separately. The developer would be required to link
his construction with that of the existing building. The auditorium would remain the responsibility
of the City and would carry all financial and management for the facitlity. This would require funding
for rehabilitation and would produce revenue to the City only through leases in the building.
5. Non -Participation by the Developer
The City could isolate Bayfront Municipal Auditorium from any development on the Miamarina site. The
rehabilitation would then have to be funded through City funds or other sources such as an independent
developer or by one of the groups innumerated in preceding alternatives.

`AORS.,.2.1_2._8 A. 11NANCIAL MODELS FOR SELECTED ALTERNATIVES
S. EVALUATE FEASIBILITY OF ALTERNATIVES
In this section, projections of operating revenues and
direct expenses are projected for each of the program alternatives
described in Task 2.6, as appropriate. Then, the cash flow resulting
from operations is compared with the redevelopment cost associated
with each alternative, as estimated by Ferendino Grafton, Spillis
and Candela (FGSC), and judgements rendered regarding the economic
feasibility of the alternative.
Throughout this section, the analysis is undertaken from
the prospective of the City of Miami. Accordingly, for Alternatives
4,5,6 and 7 which assume that another party takes over responsibility
for Bayfront Park Auditorium, no projections of operating revenues
or expenses are presented. Rather, it is assumed that if those
parties take control of the building, they will do so based on
their own review of the associated economics.
As stated in our transmittal letter, the projections
presented in this section are not based on detailed market analysis.
Rather, they are based on interviews with relevant City of Miami
officials and review of the records of Bayfront Park Auditorium.
Interviews were also held with potential occupants of the Auditorium
who operate activities similar to those proposed for inclusion in
Bayfront Park Auditorium. The sources of information and basis
of our estimates and assumptions are stated.
Mince the projections are based on estimates and assump-
tione which are inherently subject to uncertainty and variation
depending upon evolving events, we do not represent them as results
that will actually be achieved.
ALTERNATIVE It AUDITORIUM USE WITH ADDITIONAL MEETING FACILITIES
As described in Task 2.6, this alternative envisions that
Bayfront Park Auditorium would continue in its present use as an Au-
ditorium, meeting hall and exhibition center. For this purpose, the
two principal spaces within the building, the Caribbean and Gulf -
stream Rooms, would remain essentially as they are although work
would be performed to improve the acoustics within these spaces to
better permit two disassociated events to occur simultaneously. The
principal change within the building would be to redevelop the areas
which currently house the Cuban/Haitian refugee programs -as two meet-
ing/break-out rooms capable of accomodating from 50 to 250 people.
These spaces would then be available for use by smaller organiza-
tions in which to hold meetings as well as by family oriented activi-
vities such as family reunions, weddings, etc. FGSC estimate that
the redevelopment costs for this alternative would be $2,652,000.
In 1980, Bayfront Park Auditorium housed 208 event days.
The Manager of the facility has Indicated that It the acoustics In
the Caribbean and Gulfstream Rooms were improved so that two disas-
sociated events could be held slmultaneously in these spaces, the
total number of event days could be increased by 30 percent. The

be attracted to the Auditorium, which means these rooms would be used
a total of 115 event days. A total of 400 event days would occur

Based on the data contained in Exhibits 1 and 2 and con-

As the exhibit shows, total direct operating expenses are
projected to be $360,100 in fiscal year 1983. This would result in

an operating deficit for Bayfront Park Auditorium under this alter-

($ 18,7SO)
It should be noted, however, that this projected deficit
assumes that the current rental rate structure is not increased for
a period of three years, or since March 1980. Assuming a ten percent
increase in each of the next two years, a $52,900 surplus could be
f realized.
In this regard, there has been considerable reluctance to
raise rental rates at Bayfront Park Auditorium, based on concern that
many of the organizations and groups which use the faci4ity may not
be willing to pay higher rates. However, as shown in Task 2.2,
Bayfront Park Auditorium's rental rate structure is considerably
below that at the comparable facilities which exist in Dade County.
Accordingly, if rate increases were proposed, many of the groups
and organizations which utilize Bayfront Park Auditorium would have
to make a decision whether to pay the increase or suspend their ac-
tivities.
IV-H
As discussed on page 1V-2, the redevelopment costs asso-
ciated with this alternative are estimated to be $2,652,000. This
means that even if rental rate increases are effected producing a
$52,900 annual surplus, the amortization period would be at least
50 years and likely longer when financing costs are considered.
Given this attenuated amortization, this alternative could only be
undertaken if the surplus provided by the project were supplemented
by other City funds. Accordingly, a decision to redevelop the fa-
cility in a manner consistent with this alternative would appear to
relate to the availability of other funds and the importance the City
places in providing a facility to groups and organizations who re-
quire auditorium, exhibit and meeting space at relatively low cost
to accomodate their activities.
ALTERNATIVE 2s AUDITORIUM USE WITH MULTIMEDIA SHOW, RESTAURANT
AND SMALL TOURISM OFFICE
As described in Task 2.6, this alternative retains the
traditional auditorium, meeting hall and exhibit space function with-
in Sayfront Park Auditorium on a reduced level, utilizing the exist-
ing Caribbean Room and two newly developed meeting rooms for this
purpose. However, the area occupied by the current Gulfstream Room
as well as other space not presently utilized within the facility
would be redeveloped to accommodate revenue producing activities in-
cluding a multimedia show, a restaurant and a small office for the
City of Miami Office of Information and Visitors. The multimedia
11
T
Ij

sh6w and the restaurant would occupy 8,000 square feet each, while
the tourism office would occupy 2,000 square feet. It should be
noted that the space provided for the tourism office would not
fully house that department= rather, it would contain only the
activities of the department which provide information to tourists
on a day in and day out basis.
PGSC estimates that the costs associated with renovating
Bayfront Park Auditorium in accordance with this alternative would be
$2,090,000, exclusive of the furniture, fixtures and equipment re-
quired by the multimedia show and restaurant. These entities would
bear the costs associated with finishing their space themselves.
The multimedia show, restaurant and tourist office would each pay
rent to occupy their spaces, with the first two also bearing all
costs associated with operating and maintaining their interior
spaces either on a direct or allocated basis.
In 1980, Bayfront Park Auditorium housed 208 event days.
Of this total, 55 percent occurred in either the Caribbean or Gulf -
stream Room and, accordingly, could still be accomodated within the
facility under this alternative. It is, however, likely that with
only one large room available, scheduling problems will arise.
Based on a review of prior years' records, it is estimated that Bay -
front Park Auditorium would be able to house 104 event days in the
Caribbean Room under this alternative. It is further estimated that
the small meeting rooms to be created under this alternative could

Payments made by the multimedia show, restaurant and tourist offices.
In the case of the multimedia show and restaurant, actual payments
made would likely be based on a percentage of gross volume. However,
k �
the detailed market analysis required to estimate rental payments
a dg
on this basis could not be undertaken within the scope of this
study. Accordingly, based on the rentals paid by comparable activi-
ties bath in Miami and elsewhere, a rental figure of $15 per square
foot is assumed for the purpose of this analysis. On this basis,
both the multimedia show and restaurant are projected to pay
$120,000 annually in rent, as shown in Exhibit T. A rental rate
}
of $15 per square foot has also been used for the tourist offices.
It is believed that this figure will compare favorably with rental
rates for Class B office space in Downtown Miami in 1963, the first
operating. year for the renovated Dayf.ront Park Auditorium. The
tourism offices of the City of Miami presently occupy Class a space
with considerably less visibility and accessibility than that being
Tproposed
under this alternative.

It should be hoted, however# that this projected surplus
assumes that the current rental rate structure for auditorium,
meeting and exhibit space is not increased for a period of three
years, or since March 1980. he discussed under Alternative 1, there
is reluctance to change the rate structure but it may be possible
to do so. Assuming a ten percent increase in each of the next two

he discussed above, the redevelopment costa associated
with this alternative are $2.090,000. This means that the amorti-
zation period, before financing costs are considered but assuming
rate increases are affected for the auditorium, meeting and exhibit
space, would be approximately 14 years. When financing costs are
considered, this amortization period would increase considerably.
At- 1 this alternative would likcly be feasible only if
{
tourist center containing small offices and displays sponsored by
the airlines, area tourist attractions, hotels and ground transpor-
tation companies. A multimedia show and a restaurant, uses which
would be compatible with the tourism focus of this alternative,
would occupy 10,000 and 6,000 square feet, respectively. The re-
maining 6,100 square feet would be used as auditorium, exhibit and
meeting room space.
FGSC estimates that the redevelopment costs associated with
this alternative would be $2,020,000, exclusive of the furniture,
fixtures and equipment required by the multimedia show and restaurant
and, to comb degree, in the tourist center. Users of these areas
would bear all or part of the costs associated with finishing their
space themselves. The multimedia show, restaurant, tourist offices
and occupants of the tourist center would all pay rent to occupy their
spaces, with the first two also bearing all costs associated with
operating and maintaining their interior spaces, either on a direct
or allocated basis.
As discussed under Alternative 2, a rental figure of $15
per square foot is being assumed for this analysis with respect to
the multimedia show, restaurant and tourism offices. Occupants of
the tourist center would likely pay higher rents for their small
offices and display areas. ilowe-er, space within the tourist center
would be less efficiently utilized with the result that the effective
rent would likely approximate $15 per square foot. It should, how-

ALTERNATIVE l: MIAMI DADE COMMUNITY COLLEGE ARTS PROGRAM
Under this alternative, Miami Dade Community College at
the New World Center Campus would lease Bayfront Park Auditoriva
from the City of Miami for a nominal amount and renovate the building
to house the Frances Wolfson Art Gallery, the Mitchell Wolfson Art
Gallery and studios in the manner described in Task 2.6. Under the
terms of the lease, Miami Dade Community College would be fully
responsible for all costs associated not only with redeveloping the
facility for its intended use but also its operation and maintenance,
effectively relieving the City of Miami of any financial burden
associated with Bayfront Park Auditorium during the term of the
lease. Estimates provided by Miami Dade Community College and PGSC
anticipate that total redevelopment costs associated with this al-
ternative would be $2,500.000 in 1981 dollars.

Assuming the above conditions are met, the College may be
authorized by the State Board to enter Into a lease and further,
the College may expend monies for capital improvements in the pro-
perty. A new rule is in the process of being written by the State
board of Education with respect to the amount of monies which may be
spent by a College for capital improvements of leased properties.
This proposed rule would limit the amount of money to be spent on
improvements of leased facilities to $2 per usable square foot for
each year the lease is to run. Under this rule, a lease of at
least 33 years would be required to assure that the $2,500,000
required for redevelopment would be available. Taking into consider-
ation escalating construction costs, Miami Dade Community College
has expressed a desire for a 40-year lease in its proposal.
In summary, Miami Dade Community College has expressed
In

galleries and art programs. The issue of the feasibility of this
Alternative appears to rest on the willingness of the City of Miami
to lease the building at a nominal rate for a period of forty years,

New World Center Campus would lease Bayfront Park Auditorium from
the City of Miami for a nominal amount and renovate the building as
a health maintenance and recreation facility in the manner described
in Task 2.6. Under the terms of the lease, Miami Dade Community

Board of Education with respect to the amount of monies which may be n'
spent by a College for capital Improvements of leased properties.
This proposed rule would limit the amount of money to be spent on
Improvements of leased facilities to $2 per usable square foot for
each year the lease is to run. Under this rule, a lease of at
least 33 years would be required to assure that the $2,500,000

ation escalating construction costs, Miami Dade Community College
has expressed a desire for a 40-year lease in its proposal.

ALTERNATIVE 61 MARITIME MUSEUM INTERIM FACILITY
The Plorida Maritime Museum needs an interim facility in
Which to formalize its activities while awaiting resolution of the
legal situation with respect to the Florida East Coast property upon
which it has proposed developing a permanent facility. This alter-
native assumes that Bayfront Park Auditorium would serve as the
Museum's interim facility though no formal expression of interest in
this concept has been made by the Museum's Board of Directors to date.
Under this alternative, it is envisioned that Museum would lease
Bayfront Park Auditorium from the City of Miami for a nominal rate
and renovate 13,500 square feet to house its activities.
The balance of the space, totalling 24,500 square feeti,
would be subleased to revenue producing enterprises such as a
restaurant and multimedia presentation as well as the City of
Miami's tourism offices, as described in Task 2.6. The rental
income so produced would be available to the Museum to cover the
costs associated with the operation and maintenance of Bayfront
Park Auditorium during the period of its lease. They would also
be available to the Museum to amortize the costs associated with

t*dGV*lbpftGht# astimated to be 0 ,997,So0, exclusive of the fuihl-
tore, fixtures and equipment required by the subtenants.
n,3 t�
The feasibility of this alternative is dependent upon the
fK. C
Florida Maritime Museum's financial capacity to renovate and operate
Bayfront Park Auditorium for the uses intended, taking into consider-
i; ation both the capital improvement funds in its possession and the
. income which operation of the building would produce from its ac-
tivities and the rental payments it would receive from the subtenants.
At this time, it is uncertain whether the Museum has analyzed these
t
issues. It should also be noted that utilization of Bayfront Park
Auditorium as an Interim facility for the Florida Maritime Museum
would have a finite time frame associated with it, estimated to be
five years, assuming the Museum's proposal for development of a
permanent facility on the Florida East Coast property is favorably
acted upon by the City of Miami.
i
ALTERNATIVE 7r PRIVATE DEVELOPER PARTICIPATION
The City of Miami is considering issuance of a Request
for Proposal (RFP) to developers to ascertain their interest in
redeveloping the Miamarina site, located directly to the east of
Bayfront Park Auditorium. The developers responding to the RFP, if
issued. would be given the option of including Bayfront Park Audi-
torium in their proposed redevelopment plans. It is not certain
whether they would be restricted in the uses they could propose for

f overriding objective of any alternative use of the Bayfront Municipal (Auditorium ie to impkdvo- the �
z$
,quality and quantity of activity that will take place in Bayfront Park. "
the analysis of Bayfront Municipal Auditorium must consider not only the potential internal activities
but also the changes within the context of a revitalized Bayfront Park, a developing downtowns the potential
development of the F.E.C. property and the growth of the Port of Miami. These influences make up the environment
in which this facility must function and be a "friendly neighbor".
The seven programming scenarios (alternative uses) depicted in the previous section of this report fulfill
a variety of community needs, however, the integration of this building into the overall Bayfront Park and
Biscayne Boulevard Development is extremely important to the success or failure of any of these activities.
The success of this rehabilitation hinges upon how well it is integrated into the development of the surrounding
park and marina sites.
The balance of this report is dedicated to the exposition of the site influences; what the goals are in
planning for a successful integration; and what development alternatives are available.

Myfront Municipal Auditorium, situated on the southeast corner of Biscayne Boulevard and N.E. 5th
Street (Port Boulevard), is located in an area that is central to a number of major developments that
are taking place downtown. These changes and the resultant increased population will affect Bayfront
Municipal Auditorium from a planning standpoint. Therefore, the following is a synopsis of those
elements which will effect the potential use and interest in the auditorium.
1. Growth of Downtown Office Space
The growing number of new buildings, a total of four (4) million square feet of additional office
space by 1983, will bring in excess of 100,000 more people to work in the downtown area.
These office workers, if prompted by a safe, attractive, populated bayfront park scheme, will seek
diversion in their leisure time at lunch, in the afternoons and possibly linger in the evening at
programmed events in a newly developed park.
2. Biscayne Boulevard and Hotel Development
A
In addition to the growth in office space, there is currently underway or in the planning stages over
2000 hotel and condominium units which will bring to the downtown area the needed full time residents
to make the City a viable night time place. Biscayne Boulevard in particular will continue to see
the redevelopment of sites and buildings. Beginning with Miami Center and Southeast Financial Center,
development is moving up the Boulevard with projects under consideration to redevelop the Columbus and McAllister
Hotels; renovations to the Everglades Hotel; the already rehabilitated structures of the Marina Park
Hotel and the new United Methodist Church complimented by the soon to be renovated Parkleigh Property; and
the restoration and development of the Freedom Tower site. All this culminated by the potential of
the residential component of the Park West area.
These new buildings will bring a higher business and residential population on a 24 hour a day basis.
3. Downtown People Mover
-,. The downtown component of the unified transit system for Metro -Dade will bring to the park approximately
40,000 people per day. The proximity of at least three proposed transit stops within seven minutes
walking time from the Bayfront Municipal Auditorium makes it a desirable location to attract patrons.
,r
Bayfront Park Development
Plans developed by Isamu Noguchi incorporate 18 acres of Bayfront Park land to include a 4000 seat
amphitheater, two fountains/plazas, baywalk, rock garden, children's playground, international
visitors' plaza, restaurant, people mover station and possible parking.
These features, along with the proposed sculpture garden/commons area, will attract planned and
spontaneous events which will increase the exposure of activities housed within the auditorium.
5. F.E.C. Property Acquisition and Development
The Florida East Cost Property to the north of Bayfront Municipal Auditorium is currently under
acquisition by the City of Miami. This property has been considered for several development purposes
including a new performing arts center and the new Florida Maritime Museum to be located near the
existing deep water slip for the docking of tall ships.
These two possible alternatives reflect people oriented activities thus increasing the exposure and -possible
use of the auditorium.
6. Port of Miami. Development
The Port of Miami continues to grow both in cargo and passenger traffic with nearly 2.5 million tons of
cargo and 1.5 million cruiseship passengers. Port traffic currently is carried by a single drawer bridge
that connects to I-95 via N.E. 5 and 6 Streets. With this large number of visitors passing by Bayfront
Municipal Auditorium and Bayfront Park, the auditorium is an ideal location for the cruiseship liners to
locate a staging area for its passengers. The passengers could be scheduled through events, thus avoid
sitting in the cruise terminal as much as half a day with nothing to do. The opportunity exists to provide
passengers with information on Miami, South Florida, the Caribbean, and the opportunity to visit Bayfront
Park and its events. This could all be pre -arranged and pre -ticketed through agreements with concessions
such as media presentations and restaurants.
Several proposals are being developed to alter access to the port. One which directly affects the municipal
auditorium would be the creation of an elevated ramp and bridge to begin at Biscayne Boulevard. This
would impact the current entrance and parking area of the auditorium site.
7. Miamarina Development
Presently under consideration is the creation of a waterfront retail spine that would be developed over the
present Miamarina parking areas to connect with the present Miamarina structure.
The physical form which this development could take has yet to be determined. However, the impact on
the auditorium should be considered in the context of how the existing building could be integrated into
the proposed development.

3►2 SITE PLANNING GOALS
In regard to how Bayfront Municipal Auditorium will be assimilated into the changing context of downtown
and the park, several elements have been identified that would be beneficial to the users of the auditorium
and to the development of the area as a whole:
I. Entrance
Currently the public entrances to the auditorium, exhibition, and office functions of the building
are on the North facing Port Boulevard. With the potential of an elevated rampway to the port and
the growth of activity in the park, there is a need to provide access into the building from the
South (park side) and from the East (Miamarina side).
2. Service
The proposed alternative uses which incorporate mixed use will demand a greater service and entry
capacity. This can be achieved by orientation of utility areas along the current service drive.
3. Relationship to the Park and Miamarina
Since the construction of the auditorium, the building has stood alone with no direct link to any
surrounding activities. Even when the Miamarina was conceived, no link was made to the existing
building. With the increased potential of developing the Miamarina site as a commercial complex,
Bayfront Municipal Auditorium should be considered as an anchor much like a major department store
is to a shopping mall. The auditorium then could be an "anchor" activity to any proposed development.
4. Development of Second Level Esplanade
If this concept is accepted the potential linkage would be from a second level esplanade that would
maintain the existing parking and provide for the widening of the current second level walkway that
would link the marina, Miamarina building, and Bayfront Municipal Auditorium.
5. Internal Mezzanine
To accomplish the second level linkage and to provide additional area within the building, a mezzanine
in the main auditorium could be constructed. This would provide direct access from the marina
development into the existing building.
6. Parking
In general, the proposed six use alternatives would not generate any more parking than is currently
available to the auditorium. The private developer option would impact parking. The amount and
location would be determined by the City and developer as the scope of development is determined.
In general, the rehabilitation of Bayfront Auditorium should reorient its primary entrances and activities
to the park (South side). There is potential to link this existing facility with the park and future
development of Miamarina via a second level esplanade or mall structure. The following diagram illustrates
the aforementioned elements.

3.,_ SITE DEVELOPMENT ALTERNATIVES
The development of the seven alternative uses for the auditorium would generate in the end seven different
specific architectural solutions. However, there are a number of general site alterations which all would
have in common.
These items are discussed in terms of meeting the estalished goals stated in Section 3.2 and are illustrated
in the following sketches and diagrams. In particular, the following alternatives are illustrated:
I. Bayfront Park Orientation and Access from Biscayne Boulevard
The building orientation currently ignores the park and has turned a blank facade to Biscayne Boulevard.
Primary orientation is to the North and the adjacent parking lot.
To alter this condition, it is proposed that the main auditorium functions be provided with park
entrances and that the offices be provided with entrances from Biscayne Boulevard.
2. Interior Mezzanine
The Caribbean Room (main auditorium) could accommodate a second level mezzanine as illustrated in
the accompanying sketch showing a section of the auditorium and the location of the mezzanine. This
would be particularly suited to the alternatives where the function of the auditorium changes to
media show or art museum functions.
3. Restaurant Development
Four of the seven alternatives described in this report include a restaurant that would accommodate
a 200 seat capacity. The location has been illustrated as overlooking the park and adjacent to the
existing kitchen/pantry area. Just as Miamarina has oriented its views to the bay and marina, this
restaurant would capitalize on this revitalized Bayfront Park.
4. Second Level Link to the Miamarina Development
If the Miamarina site is developed as a second level retail spine, the above mentioned elements are
well suited to linking the auditorium at an elevated level. This would physically link the auditorium
and new restaurant functions directly to the park above any service areas and to the Miamarina above
existing parking.
The park could then come up to the edge of the new development, creating a gradual change in elevation
from commons area to development.
5. Exterior Renovation
When a new use is determined for the auditorium and how this use will be integrated into any proposed
new development, consideration should be given to upgrading the exterior of the building.

Dear Concerned Citizen:
The Downtown Development Authority is interested in soliciting ideas and
identifying potential user groups in connection with a re -use study of the
Bayfront Municipal Auditorium. The purpose of the study is to examine, with
a fresh perspective, existing and prospective uses for the facility.
Ferendino, Grafton, Spillis & Candela, have been selected as the planning/
architectural consultants for this effort. The study was made possible by a
grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. Participating with the
Downtown Development Authority, with both staff and cash matches, are the
City's Department of Stadiums and Marinas, and Metro-Dade's Office of
Community and Economic Development.
The consultants and project staff will be at the Auditorium, 499 Biscayne
Boulevard, for two days of community planning. You are invited to join us
on Monday and/or Tuesday, March 30 and 31, between 10:-0 a.m. and 12:00 Noon
or Noon to 2:00 p.m., for either the morning or afternoon session. At that
time, we will tour the facility, review the building history and existing
condition, and engage in conceptual discussions for the future use of
the building.
Following this input, several alternative re -use scenarios will be developed.
Each will focus on feasible programming. Public non-profit and private
management solutions, and/or an appropriate combination of both, will be
considered. Space planning issues will be developed through April. Selected
alternatives will be reviewed in May. A preliminary report with initial
findings will be presented in June. It should be noted that the ultimate
disposition of the building lies solely with the City of Miami Commission.
If you or your organization have an interest in the Auditorium, please consider
this an invitation to participate. In the event you have a schedule conflict,
the enclosed forms may be returned with your comments. For further information,
you can contact Kitty Roedel, Downtown Development Authority, 2099 One Biscayne
Tower, Miami, Florida, 33131, telephone: 579-6675.

„�.. 11. WHAT OTHER ACTIVITY OR USE FOR THE AUDITORIUM DOES YOUR ORGANIZATION SUGGEST?
Downtown Miami Is experiencing a rapid
period of growth and development that
has now fostered redevelopment of older
sections of downtown. With construction
underway on hundreds of millions of dollars
of new projects west of Biscayne Boulevard,
the need has become more urgent to ►ev1-
talize the strip of publicly -owned land east
of the Boulevard.
Downtown Miami's advantage of having
this expanse along the Bay does not make
It unique when compared to other Arnett -
can cities. Many of the older and larger
cities evolved because of their proximity to
water. Today, several have taken bold steps
forward to reclaim public use of sites adja-
cent to these natural amenities. Successes
are evident In Baltimore's Inner Harbor,
Detroit's Hart Plaza, Cincinnati's Riverfront,
and Plttsburgh's Point State .Park. Recently,
New York, San Diego, San Francisco, along
with Mlaml, have initiated plans for major
activity centers and urban parks that touch
upon waterways. Each tends Itself to region-
al Identity as well as symbolizing the renais-
sance of America's central cities.
Out Boyfront Park System, which currently
includes only Bicentennial and Bayfront
Parks, has always presented varying de-
grees of opportunities and challenges,
since the early 1900's when the eastern
edge of Biscayne Boulevard became a
splllbank from continuous harbor dredging.
During the decade of the 80's, Miamians
will witness additional developments within
this contiguous space, culminating 66 years
of this community's lingering Infatuation
with this 1-1/10 mile strip of park potential.
We can anticipate a rehabilitated Bay -
front Auditorium, and the eventual public
and/or private development of Watson
Island and the FEC parcel. Already under
discussion are a Morutime Museum, a Per-
forming Arts complex, a sculpture garden,
etc. These Inter-retated efforts and Ideas
should result In a cohesive, post" impact.
They can create essential linkages within
the greenbelt park system.
It Is within this homework chat the 18-acre
segment of Bayfront Park, which Is currently
scheduled for redevelopment, becomes
significant: It Is an Integral element of
downtown Miami's urban waterfront revital-
Izotlon scenorlo.
A new Bayiront Park, lying literally at the
historic crossroads of an emerging inter-
national city, can act as the front door to
Greater Miami. It will have a definite physl-
cal, and yet casual relationship to the
12,000 people at the Miami Center hotel,
office and condominium development on
Ball Point. A virtual sub -(topical oasis, It can
provide breathing space for the 45,000
people who will occupy and visit the South-
east Financial Center and Miami Center
Phase IiI Development at Dupont Plaza.
It has been designed to reach out to the
million -plus Latin shoppers, the convention-
eers, the hotel guests, and 60,000 employ-
ees who dolly spend at least elght hours
working on the fringe of the Park. A new,
world -class park might even entice a large
percentage of the 2 million cruise ship pas-
sengers of the Port of Miami tovlsit the heart
of the New World Center,
Southeast Financial Center
Today, tot a major urban park, It Is highly
underutilized. When was the last time you
went to Bayfront Park? As recently as 1972,
an estimated 750,000 people attended
events and performances at the Bandshell.
The re-creation of this prime space will be
determinated a success If It once again
attracts thousands of park users. In the near
future, whether by boat, car, monorall, oron
foot, Miamians Wit be able to enjoy this
man-made resource. If promisesa variety of
experiences In a stunning urban setting,
framed between the city's towering skyline
and the blue-green waters of Biscayne Bay.

phases Will take three to four
Years. Design/development should begin
In the first quarter of 1981. under the direc-
tion of Noguchl. The park re-devolopment Is
estimated to cost approximately $10,000,000.
It will be funded by a consortium of public
agencies, Federal, State, County, and City,
with private funding being sought for the
construction and fabrication of two foun-
tains.
The most prominent element of the
design plan Is a 2000+ seat amphitheatre,
on axis with Ragler Street, with additional
seating provided on the perimeter. The
amphitheatre will be slightly recessed and
face Biscayne Bay. The muitlixxpose stag-
Ing area will be the scene of continuous
Programming for cultural, ethnic, civic, and
performing arts event. The construction of
the amphitheatre cannot begin until the
library functions have ben relocated to the
new library on West Flagler Street.
Two fountain and plaza areas have been
incorporated on the north and south axis of
the amphitheatre. They win Include seating
and landscaping to provide passive and
aesthetic areas in the park. The Sea Foun-
tain will attompt to introduce Saywaterinto
the park for the fkst time where it will cos -
code over a granite mound 10 feet high
and 150 feet wide. The fountain at Chopin
Plaza. stainless steel and perpetually mist-
Ing, will create a formal entrance Into the
park from the Mlaml Center and Dupont
Plaza areas.
The Saywaik will be approximately 150
feet wide and runs parallel to Biscayne Bay
from Chopin Plaza to the Namarina com-
plex. The Baywalk will Introduce several
new elements Into the park: finger piers for
boaters and park users. and a chndrens
play area. The rock garden will be retained
and refurbished. The deteriorated bulkhead
win be replaced with rip rap (the placement
of natural boulders) to enhance the bay
water environment. Along with the piers will
be the develoment of a water taxi terminal
and a possible rental concession for sall-
boats.
The park's relationship to the Boulevard
has traditionally contributed to Its underull-
lIzation. The placement of the Downtown
People Mover station on the eastern side
of the Boulevard, adjacent to the park,
along with the realignment of the Boule-
vard, could Improve this situation.
At an estimated ridership of 40.000 people
a day, the People Moverwill remedy access
and security problems, while Increasing the
number of park users. it will also provide a
dramatic panorama of the Park and the
Bay, enticing to transit riders. An Interna-
tional visitors plaza will be situated on the
ground level of the station. The adjoining
area will accommodate an Indoor/outdoor
cafe, restrooms, and storage space, all
neatly tucked In a 13-foot high berm.
A similar north berm will be programmed
for uses in the near future, during design/
development. The space could hold up to
200-300 parked cars, as well as additional
functional areas, such as dressing rooms for
the amphithealre, etc.
The various activity areas within the park
will be connected by a series of gentle
walks, In a setting reminiscent of the typical
Ronda waterfront, with as much greenery
as possible. "There is no concrete, ti I can
help 11", explains Mr. Noguchi, "so you
should have no fear that It Is any less green
than what you
have now".

NEW WORLD CENTER CAMPUS
In the late sixties, Miami -Dade Community College made a decision to begin
a new campus of the College in the downtown area. This risky step on the part
of the College became part of the spark that has resulted in the revitalization
of what is now called the New World Center area.
Part of the decision to establish a downtown campus also included a move
to limit the number of campus buildings and spread instead into surrounding
downtown facilities -- thus insuring a campus within and among the bustling
downtown area. At present, the New World Center Campus is using classroom and/
or office space in over thirty-eight community locations in and around downtown
Miami.
The move to the downtown area was not without risk for the College.
However, this decision has proven to be a good one with measurable results:
a the opportunity to meet the wide variety of educational needs
of those working and living in the downtown area
• the increase in usage of all downtown facilities and shopping
as over 16,000 Campus students return to downtown Miami for
classes
• the Campus has worked closely with the Downtown Development
Authority toward a revitalized downtown area
One of the beginners in the movement for an improved downtown area, the
New World Center Campus now enjoys a special identification with progress in
Miami.
UNMET NEEDS OF THE
NEW WORLD CENTER CAMPUS
Beginning in 1970 in the Chamber of Commerce Building with 200 students,
the New World Center Campus has grown to over 16,000 students at present. This
rapid growth has brought increased student demand for additional educational
opportunity. The unmet needs of the Campus at this time are particularly
urgent for both the Art and Physical Education Programs.
The Campus needs fit well with the City of Miami's desire to provide the
optimum usage of the Bayfront Park auditorium. It is felt that the Auditorium's
questionable public image will be greatly enhanced through identification with
Miami -Dade Community College and its planned Art Center and Health and
Recreational Facility.
Miami -Dade proposes to use Bayfront Auditorium to provide the heart of
the cultural arts offerings in the downtown area. The Art Center will include
the well-known Frances Wolfson Art Gallery presently housed on campus, a
ceramics lab, a 3-0 design/sculpture studio, a 2-D design and crafts studio, a
drawing and painting studio, a graphic design studio with adjacent photography
darkroom facilities, and a slide/lecture room. In addition, the College is
presently negotiating with the Wolfson family to establish their extensive
collection in an additional Mitchell Wolfson gallery. (Details on this Art
Center can be found later in this proposal.)
In its Health and Recreational Facility, the College plans to include a
large activity center, a health analysis center with resistive exercise room,
a human performance lab, a dance studio, and locker room facilities for men
and women. This Health and Recreational Facility will add to the baseball,

soccer, and softball fields the College is presently planning to co
Bicentennial Park. (Details on the Health and Recreational Faci7ity'can bL,
found later in this proposal.)
At present, there is community usage of the Bayfront Auditorium, particu—
larly in the evening hours, by groups sponsoring dances, meetings, etc. MS.
need will continue to be met as community groups may still schedule the usage
of the large activity center (12,000 sq. feet) at a minimum charge covering
utilities, janitorial, and
security
services. In addition, the entire downtown
community will gain through the new availability of:
• the Frances Wolfson Art Gallery
• the possibility of the Mitchell Wolfson Gallery
• access to the
art studios
• access to the Health and Recreational Facilities
• performing dance groups
It is anticipated that the increased crowds brought by gallery openings,
sporting events, dance troup performances, etc. will add to the safety and
increased utilization of the entire downtown area.

ART CENTER
1. Operational Philosophy
Miami -Dade Community College is proposing that a major part of B'ayRfront
Park Auditorium be designed to accommodate an Art Center. These spaces are
to be comprehensive in nature including art galleries, art studios and
classrooms, and offices. These facilities will provide for a wide variety
of activities suited to the program needs of Miami -Dade students and to the
interests of the downtown community at large.
The Miami -Dade Community College Art Center is to become a contributing
partner to the integrated cultural center which is being conceived for
Bayfront Park. Students, members of the community, and visitors to the
Miami area will be able to share in cultural experiences as participants
and spectators.

Specific division into sub -spaces must await more comolete
study of needs.
This area should be approximately for 10,000 sq. ft. Two meetings with
Pam Johnson, Mr. Wolfson's Curator of the collection, included a thorough
survey of the extent of this varied collection and a discussion with
Mr. Wolfson and Ms. Johnson about space requirements. Essentially, there
are four areas to the collection:
1. Prints and books.
2. Furniture and decorative arts.
3. Memorabilia of popular art reflecting the social mores of the
changing society, 1887-1941.
4. Metaphysical furniture and decorative objects (furniture which
reassembles into other forms) an intricate art much prized by
17th-19th century patrons.
The above would entail administrative offices, conservation and
restoration areas, cataloguing and library space separate from those of
the Frances Wolfson Art Gallery.
Mr. Wolfson wants to continue building the collection and give daily
management to the college or other entity. The entire collection will be
transferred gradually to the college ownership.
Mr. Wolfson's Credo for Collection:
1. Accessibility to public, including lending to other
institutions.
2. Maintenance.
3. Collection remains intact:
4. Provision for adding to the collection.
5. Part of the collection may be stored --everything need not
be on display simultaneously.
NOTE: Following is a memorandum summarizing the activities of the
College and the Wolfson family relative to this collection.

1. College to provide the physical facility to house the collection, with
10,000 square feet as minimum space.
2. A public foundation set up by Mr. Wolfson to provide maintenance will
pay for expenses involved in operation of the physical plant, such as
repair and electrical Fills for air-conditioning and humidity control,
electronic security, repairs and periodic refurbishment of the gallery,
restoration of damaged art works, framing, display cases and/or cabinets,
and special lighting required to properly protect/display particular art
works, and salary of security personnel, and fund maintaining and restoring
donated works and acquiring and cataloging the collection. Such a fund
would not include normal maintenance in the building structure.
3. A gradual transfer of the collection to the College.
r
4. The possibility of conveying Wometco stock to the College, provided the
College will hold it an► use the dividends for cash support of personnel
required to manage the collection and the gallery (Mr. Wolfson stated
that the family is quite willing to donate stock, but is strongly opposed
to the recipient selling it to raise monies.
5. An arrangement worked out between the College and the new foundation
to share some of the personnel costs. For example, the College could
use the Curator, who would be an art historian with degree creditials,
to teach art history and humanities courses, and his pay combined with
dividends from donated stock could provide the curator's salary (How
to fund salaries of other support personnel was not discussed in detail.)
6. A commitment by both the Mitchell Wolfson Art Foundation and the College
to develop the collection as an oustanding public art resource and col-
lection of decorative art spanning the period 1881-1941, refined and
added to over lifetime of Mr. Wolfson, with the bulk of his estate
earmarked to support it after his death.
7, Mr. Uoifson in an active role as contributing collector and as a member
of the board of trustees, with day to day decisions to the college, ceded
with such areas of independence clearly spelled out and with the five
points stated in his "Credo for the Collection: adhered to by the College.
(Please refer to attached)

is an unique opportunity to study trends in Art, Design, Industry, Social &
Political thought in the early Twentieth Century and their origins in the Nin—
eteenth Century. The Collection brings together many objects, texts and images .
normally available only through many disparate sources. Outlined below are
some of the foci of the Collection:
T W E N T I E T H C E N T U R Y D E S I G N in art and industry, concentra—
ting on exemplary fine and domestic objects, furniture, glass, ceramics, silver,
and other materials and how they have been adapted to new functional, plastic &
decorative forms. (For example a chair by Philip Godwin, England C. 1880, 13 CO"
trasted with one by Mies Van Der Rohe, Bauhaus c. 1919, and another by Gilbert
Rhode, Herman Miller Furniture Co. American 1937, to show evolution, graduation
and simplification of modernism.) Some sub —collections in this area are :
The Work Of CHRISTOPHER CR_E_SSER, considered by rsany authorities the Father of
Modern Design (English d.1879), examples in ceramic, silver and other metals,
and a collection of books by Dresser as well as exhibition catalogues;
Ames rican Industrial fir including numerous books on the subject from the
period by designers such as Raymond Loewy, Norman Bel Geddes, Sheldon Cheney,
Walter Dorwin Teague, Henry Dreyfuss, etc., industrial and domestic objects
designed by these men and their followers, and some original holographic material;
Children's Books designed to teach about the functions of industrial machines and
inculcate ideals of good design, form and function and how to recognize them

wood -cuts and engravings and textiles have been painstakingly culled, in some
cases obtained from people directly connected with the artists, or de-acquis-
itioned from Libraries and Government Agencies. The emphasis here has been on
themes and motifs typically and recognizeably American by artists such as
John Taylor Arms, Peggy Bacon, Gustave Baumann, Howard Cook, Mabel Dwight,
Rockwell Kent, Paul Landacre, Louis Lozowick, Leo Meissner, Elizabeth Olds,
Will Quinlan, Benton Spruance, etc.
BOOK DESIGN AND ILLUSTRATION isalarge and import-
ant focus of the Collection with numerous sub -collections :
American Book Illustration provides excellent social commentary through the works
of John vassos, Hugo Gellert, the 'Novels In Wood -cuts' of Lynd ward, and exam-
ples of American Futurism by Hugh Ferriss, W. K. Oltar-Jevsky and others; sample
books of paper and advertising art give us an interesting side -light on American
ingenuity;
British Book Illustration shows the far-reaching influence of the precision
and care of the William Morris -like craftsman and contrasts streamlining in
illustration, ingenius methods and the page re -defined by artists such as Eric
Gill whose contributions to type design and typography are paramount, Blair
Hughes -Stanton whose technical abilities in wood -engraving are still unparalleled,
and the fantasy illustrations of Alastair, Harry Clarke, Sidney Sime, Kay Nielsen,
and many others, for The Studio, the Curwen Press, the Cresset, Golden Cockerel,
Gregynog and other important presses;
Chas. Laborde, the French satirist is represented by a nearly.eomplete collection
of his works with the inclusion of much original and unique material;
Austrian design and a collection of the works of Julius Klinger; Germ illustr
anon; French fine -press; Periodicals pertaining to Architecture, Satire and
Fashion including a complete run of the important Italian journal Eroica (entirely
s And Expositions ; Steamship Catalogues; books pertain
hand -primed); tyorld's Fair-

the building of the Statue Of Lib -
arty, the Zeppelin, Bridges and Skyscrapers) are a few of the areas of concentra-
tion in this collection now numbering nearly nine hundred volumes-.
p R I N T S are another large sub -collection, now numbering nearly eight hun-
dred examples from all over the world. These may be grouped in the following
ra4�nnwiwa. oarh of which cnuld form a separate exhibition: __ J

P R I N T S continues
American Artists; Austrian & German Prints including a large collection of posters
by the revolutionary designer Julius Klinger with original material; British Print
including an exhaustive collection of proofs of wood -engravings by Eric Gill and ai
excellent group of English Futurists including Claude Flight and the Grosvenor Soh•
ool; French Artists including a large group of original work by Chas. Laborde;
Italian Artists including a large group of pochoirs and original work by Umberto
grurelleschi; Oriental Woodcuts and Stencils including interesting images of the
white man in Japan and portrayals of Western Technology in the Orient; Mexican
Revolutionary ry woodcuts including E1 Taller De Grafica Popular group; and a group
of Antique prints including Mit- e11i and others.
There remains a few other sub -collections which can be detailed elsewhere, briefly
Italian Futurism, Book -plates, Stamps, Postcards, Facist ProoaWda, Commemorative
Medals _& Meda2lionss Collapsable Furniture, Daa obert Peches Gio Ponti ceramics, et,
AND a large roup of material about Miami and Florida histor4 and development.
As outlined above it is readily apparent that there is a we4lth of information
contained in the collection and sufficient material for numerous exhibitions;
a central core for a permanent 'Design Collection' such as those displayed by
The Museum Of Modern Art, The Metropolitan Museum Of Art, The CooPer-Hewitt and
The Smithsonian; ephemera extremely useful as educational material and for in-
dividual study and small aggregations of material sufficiently important that
with minor additions these can be welded together to form a statement of enduring
value and quality. It is interesting to note that the period covered by the col-
lection is approximately the same period as the development and expansion of
Miami, hence a coherent parallel can be drawn for historical and social purposes -
In -valuing the Collection we have tried to maintain a consistently conservative
perspective.
HEALTH AND RECREATIONAL FACILITY
1. Operational Philosophy
The Health and Recreational Facility for the New World Center Campus
should be designed to provide maximum flexibility in order to meet the
wide range of programs and services that are necessary to meet the needs
of the students and the community. The programs that are to be provided
include a core of health maintenance and fitness testing activities;
general recreation and cultural activities for students, staff and
community; physical education activity classes, preprofessional physical
education and recreation classes; community meetings, special events,
convocations, exhibits and other activities in which spectator seating
is required.
The nature and scope of these programs call for facilities that can
furnish extensive spaces for a wide variety of activities which must be
conducted within specialized settings and be utilized by many different
campus and community organizations. These new facilities must provide
numerous teaching stations for three areas of emphasis: fitness, movement
and play. The following specifications would give a balance to these
three areas of emphasis and still provide for other utilization by the
College and the Community in the facility.

CONSTRAINTS AND FUNDING
Constraints Imposed byStatute and State Board of Education Regulations
When the College wishes to expand its educational facilities, a number of
restrictions and prescriptions are set forth in State statutes and State Board
of Education rules. With regard to leased facilities, the institution is
required to request a survey by the Department of Education, the purpose of
which is to determine the need for additional facilities and the appropriate
general location for such facilities. The State Board of Education has surveyed
and approved the construction of additional physical education and art facilities
at the New World Center Campus. The College is also required to request inspec-
tion of the proposed leased property by the State authorities. This request
shall include, but not necessarily be limited to:
a. The survey recommendation.
b. The legal description of the site.
c. The date of construction and history Of use of the building.
d. A copy of educational specifications used to determine that
educational requirements of the College will be met in this
building.
e. A set of plans and specifications showing existing construction
and all proposed changes and modifications to the building meet-
ing minimum standards and requirements set forth in the Uniform
Building Code.
The College shall submit for review and approval by the State the contract
for lease or lease -purchase agreement which shall include but not be limited to:

b.
The time for

c. Liquidated damages.
d. Provisions for prepayment of lease.
e. Provisions for adjusting terms of lease during period when
building is not available to the College.
f. Provisions for maintenance of the plant.
g. Provisions for custodial services for the plant.
h. Conditions under which additions and renovations to the plant
may be made.
i. Provisions for insuring the plant.
j. Provisions for equipping the plant.
k. Provisions for adjusting to changes in building or site
caused by action or requirements of governmental agencies.
1. Provisions for meeting legal requirements applicable to
lessor that differ from legal requirements of the College.
Given the above conditions are met, the College may be authorized by the
State Board to enter into a lease for the use of the subject property and
further, the College may expend monies for capital improvements on the property.
There is a State Board of Education rule in the process of being written which
will limit the amount of money to be spent on improvements of leased facilities
to two dollars per usable square foot of leased building for each year the
1 lease is to run. For example, leasing 10,000 square feet for five years will

Miami, Fi 33131
Dear Mr. Kenzie:
In connection with the Downtown Development Authority's
survey of possible uses for the Bayfront Auditorium, the Florida
Maritime Museum (FMM) has been asked to consider ways in which It
might use this property.
The following review is not intended to suggest that the FMM
at this time is either seeking or rejecting an opportunity for
such use.
It is the ultimate aim of our organization to develop a museum
and maritime complex on the land immediately surrounding the deep
water slip which separates Bicentennial Park and the F.E.C. tract.
As an interim location, the Bayfront Auditorium does offer
several advantages.
FUNDING
The estimated rennovation costs to bring the facility up to
standard is estimated at $ 1,992,500. This estimate includes a
rennovation of the office areas.
Based on a 10 year lease and loan of the same duration, a
debt service obligation of some $ 387,000 annually would be in-
curred.
SPACE USE
Principal spaces in the facility are as follows:
Space Sq. Ft.
Auditorium 13,518
Auditorium Stage 1,500
Lobby 13,000
Exhibition Hall 6,663
Kitchen 1,100

Half or more of the Auditorium (A106) and all of the stage
(A110) would be leased to a producer/op--rator of a first class
multi -media, general orientation show designed for visitors and
featuring the Greater Miami area.
The remainder of the auditorium and some of the lobby area
WOO would be leased to tourist oriented businesses such as car
rental firms, sight seeing tours (bus, boat, helicopter), airlines,
travel agencies, souvenir and gift stores and the like.
General interest promotional exhibits, such as for Metro Zoo,
would be included.
A visitor information center would be provided, as well.
The exhibition area (8116) would be used for maritime museum
exhibits and activities:
- small boat shop
- developmental/preliminary FMM exhibits
- loaned exhibits
- scale model of ultimate FMM and maritime complex
The kitchen, pantry and service yard area would be converted
into a middle price range outdoor -indoor nautical them restaurant
with access from inside and the south side of the building.
Office areas would be used for the FMM staff concerned with
overall FMM administration and development and for administration
of the Bayfront Audirorium project.
REVENUE POTENTIALS
The multi -media theater, private business shops and tourist
booths, possibly government sponsored booths, restaurant, maritime
museum exhibits, apprentice boat shop all would produce revenue.
Traffic potentials, lease rates, admission fees and so on re-
quire study before detailed projections can be made.
CORRELATION WITH FMM OBJECTIVES
The ultimate site of the FMM, as sought, is the land immedi-
ately surrounding the deep water slip south of Bicentennial Park
and north of the F.E.C. tract.
C 1
AIM
• AIjZJ
Roy F. Kenzie
Page 3
That area not only provides the waterfront ambience so desir-
able for this project, but makes possible the implementation of
a cornerstone concept of the FMM, a dramatic visiting ships program.
Funding, design, programs all are dependent upon a committment
from the City of Miami for use of that property for the FMM and
attendant activities.
Assuming the assignment of such property, an interim facility
will be required for administration, staging and related activity.
The facilities of the Bayfront Auditorium fit much of the
criteria sought in such an interim facility ---proximity to the
ultimate sight, public access, parking, storage space and work-
ing room.
But the full fruition of the FMM concept could not be realized
at the auditorium site, and thus we emphasize its interim nature.
We are pleased to have this opportunity to consider use
of this property by the Florida Maritime Museum.
Very truly yours,

5UF7JEZI' Downtown Bayfront Park System
Status and Discussion of Policy
Guidelines
FROM Jim Reid, Acting Assistant City Manager REFERENCES (Committee of the Whole - July 23, 1981
Carl Kern, Director, Parks Department City Commission Meeting)
Roy Kenzie, Executive Director, DDA ENCLOSURES
Following recent City Commission resolution of intent to settle the F.E.C.
litigation, the completion of the Bayfront Park System (Bicentennial, F.E.C.,
Bayfront), is now at hand. This acquisition presents the City with both
opportunities and challenges:
- The primary advantage is the creation of a long desired linked
park system (100 acres) for public purpose.
- The primary disadvantage is the scarcity of funding sources
for continued development of this highly visible City edge.
It should be evident that full implementation of this urban waterfront park system
will take place over the next decade. The City's previous investment in this green-
belt strip exceeds $50 million to date.
The park system is in various stages of development including the following
ongoing projects and interim uses:
1. Bayfront Park
- Holywell Corporation rental agreement of Bandshell (interim use)
- Implementation of Noguchi design (ongoing)
2. Bicentennial Park
- Miami Dade Community College Athletic Program (interim use)
- Police Stables (proposed)
With the rapid revitalization occurring in Downtown Miami, it is timely to
discuss future park policies which could assist in creating an unsurpassed
amenity corridor. Several policy considerations which are essential to an
integrated park system include:
- Forging a strong link between the built city, the Downtown
Bayfront Parks and Biscayne Bay
- Provision of a linear link throughout the entire Bayfront
Park system on a north/south axis

DRAFT POLICY STATEMENT
Background
In recent years, the U y of Miami has taken significant action to acquire and
develop Downtown park land and facilitate access to Downtown parks by workers,
shoppers and tourists.
Major activities in recent years have included:
- Acquisition and development of Bicentennial Park
- Court action to acquire the FEC property
- Development of some sections of Bayfront Park as
suggested by Edward Durrell Stone
- Approval of the Noguchi design for the southern portion
of Bayfront Park
- Requirement of a continuous bay/river walk adjacent to.
the Miami Center I project
- Approval of a people mover station adjacent to Bayfront Park
Suggested Policies for the Downtown Bayfront Park System
Many of the aforementioned activities have taken place on a project by project
basis, devoid of policy framework for the entire Downtown Bayfront Park system.
Now that the public ownership of this system can be achieved, overall policies
are essential. Recently, an American Institute of Architects' Design Committee
presented an integrated approach to the development of the park. While many
aspects of their approach seem impractical to carry out, it has brought to the
forefront the need for overall policies.
For example, we need to have a policy of forging a strong link between the built
city, the Downtown Bayfront arks and Biscayne B m. To carry out this policy,
e following steps are suggested;-
- The DPM station should be built adjacent to the park
on the east side of Biscayne Boulevard enabling easy
access from the DPM to the park.
- Improved pedestrian access should be achieved by
reducing Biscayne Boulevard as a barrier, reconfiguring
Biscayne Boulevard so that it is a uniform 160' in width
and removing parking from the center of the Boulevard.
- Major pedestrian access points should be achieved at Flagler
Street and in the 9th Street corridor in the Park West
project as well as through the DuPont Plaza/Miami Center I
upper level pedestrian system.
a
_ ► �� irk Statement
hot 9
i tm roved vehicle access should be secured by providing
additional parking within the park adjacent to the
improved Port Boulevard corridor, i.e. in front of the
existing Bayfront Auditorium and on the FEC property
adjacent to the Port Boulevard as well as in the Noguchi
portions of Bayfront Park and under the I-395 expressway.
A second policy should be established to provide a linear link throughout the entire
Bayfront Park system on a north -south axis. This means that the Miami River/Biscayne
Bay walk, beginning at Miami Center I, would be extended throughout the entire park
system to the I-395 expressway.
Another policy should be to provide the facilities to accommodate major events in
the ark y reserving certain areas for these events such as:
- The new Noguchi designed outdoor amphitheater
- The Miami Commons area
- The renovated Bayfront Park Auditorium
Yet another policy should be to provide facilities which encourage on -going activities
within the park such as:
- "Harbor Place" type shopping and eating facilities
near the Miamarina
- A maritime museum
- Outdoor playing fields
- Dockage for excursion boats and visiting tall
ships or naval vessels.
- Boat rental concessions
Finally, policies should set forth urban design limitations including height
restrictions and maintenance of view corridors and access to the bay.
Any buildings built in the park should have height restrictions so that no
structure higher than 3 or 4 stories could be erected. This would prevent a
a walling off of the bay and the creation of a canyon effect in relation to
high rise structures on the western side of Biscayne Boulevard. Further, in the
areas where commercial development might be permitted in the park, no development
would be able to restrict access to the Bayfront.
Each of these options must be evaluated prior to further consideration. As a
matter of policy, any excess revenues generated from Downtown Bayfront Park
development should be used to acquire suitable mini -park areas within the
Downtown C3 district comparable to Paul Walker Mini -Park.

NtIEP-OPF1CC MEMORANDUM
t& Howard V. Gary DATE July 13, 1981 PILE:
City Manager
SUBJECT Development of a Commercial Complex
Near Miamarina
` (Discussion Item - Committee of the
FROM Jim Reid REFERENCE Whole - July 23, 1981 City Commission
Acting Assistant City Manager Meeting)
tP ENCLOSURES.
In recent years, many cities have undertaken successful waterfront development
projects in their Downtown areas, e.g. Baltimore, Boston, San Francisco and
San Diego. These complexes have usually been waterfront oriented, low rise
structures occupied with indoor and outdoor restaurants and other eating places;
outdoor markets and indoor boutiques and specialty shops.
Because of its scenic character and location, the area adjacent to the Miamarina
provides the opportunity for the initiation of a similar type development in
Miami. If the City Commission is in agreement with this development concept,
which is supported by the Downtown Development Authority and the New World Action
Committee, it is recommended that a two stage development process take place.
Under stage one, a request for proposal would be prepared requiring the respondents
to prepare, at their expense, a preliminary development program accompanied by an
economic feasibility study and design schematics for the proposed development.
This program would be reviewed by the City Commission,
If the development and preliminary design program is approved by the City Commission,
the City Manager would be authorized to negotiate with the developer regarding the
full development of the project including establishment of the lease income to be
derived from the project. It is assumed that the project will be financed 100%
by the private sector with the City participating by making the land available.
The City would receive a reasonable lease income from the land and possibly
participate in additional leasehold income based on a percentage of gross sales
over and above a base figure.
The City Manager recommends that the City Commission endorse this approach
and authorize the administration, in cooperation with the Downtown Development
Authority, to prepare a request for proposals.
