ATTORNEY CITY COMMISSION MEKTING OF oc*r5 o mo �ownai �08 0 T g ell, PLANNING PACT SHEET APPLICANT City of Miami Planning Department August 22, 1980 PETITION Public JIcaring BAYFRONT PARK BETWEEN CIiOPIN PLAZA AND APPROXIMATELY NE 2ND STREET, EAST OF BISCAYNE BOULEVARD Request :for conceptual plan approval com- prising; a modifiention of the existing park development. The proposed plan has been prepared by Isamu Noguchi, sculptor, dated June 16, 1980. REQUEST To give approval, in concept, to the pre- liminary Noguchi plan for Bayfront Park. BACKGROUND The Downtown Development Authority, through a grant from the National Endowment -for the Arts, engaged Isamu Noguchi :for a conceptual plan for Bayfront Park, Article YVIII-1 of the Compre- hensive Zoning Ordinance requires a recommenda- tion from the Planning Advisory Board and approval of the City Commission of it site or development plan where a substantial change in the character of use of an existing park (zoned PR) is pro- posed. Consideration of this conceptual plan will be followed by consideration of a site development plan at a later date, The conceptual plan (attached) proposes the following changes to Bayfront Park: Phase I - Construction of it Baywalk, including an approximately 150 foot wide prom- enade, with seating, pavers, land- scaping, utilities, signage, finger piers, children's playground, some filling by Miamarina and replacement of the existing deteriorated bulk- head with rip -rap. The existing rock garden will be retained, Phase II -for the remainder of the Park - Construction of a 2,000 scat amphi- theatre for performing arts and special community events; two aesthet- ic fountain/sculptures with adjacent a�_� i f ..!� { •i L:. plazas :for seating; two slight berms !1�i (..� (( i, that will aeconunodate parking, rest- s�.�C..�.., it aurant and restrooms; it Downtown �' 1r People Mover Station , and approxi- mately DSO foot wide promenade along 80-789 the Boulevard to allow for such uses as a series of food vending carts, seating, landscaping and international visitors center. The existing bandshell and library would be removed. The park north of NE 2nd Street is not covered by the plan. Tentative funding sources are; Corps of Eng- ineers, Dade County Department of Environmental Regulation (Bay Restoration Fund), Florida De- partment of Natural Resources (FREDAP and LAWCON), City of Miami Capital Improvement Funds and pri- vate sources. The tentative budget is $10,050,000. ANALYSIS The principal issues at this conceptual stage are as follows; 1. Does the proposed plan contain sufficient attractions and program options to induce r''r��TIV E people to make use of the park? i 2. Will this easterly shift of the Downtown People Mover Station detract from office worker patronage of the DPM? y 3. Is the removal cost of the present Library Building contained in the project cost estimate? 4. Are performing arts programs feasible within the proposed -amphitheatre and adequately supported with convenient ancillary facilities e.g., dressing rooms? 5. Will an overall detailed landscape plan be developed to complement the park design? These issues can be further addressed as planning and programming proceeds to a more detailed site development plan. RECOMMENDATION Approval of the conceptual plan PLANNING DEPARTMENT (Draft Resolution Attached) PLANNING Recommended APPROVAL on September 17, 1980.
