The work and the report conform to the specifications set forth in Chapter IA-46, Florida Administrative Code. This assessment was conducted in response to the parcel's Iocation within a City of Miami Archaeological Conservation area located along the south bank of the Miami River, as described in the City of Miami Historic Preservation Ordinance 16- 10, Chapter 23. Several historical structures once occurred on the parcel, but all have been demolished. Archival records indicate that homes were constructed there as early as 1907. No historic structures currently exist on the subject parcel. No archaeological sites are recorded on the parcel, but numerous archaeological sites, features, and artifacts have been reported and recovered within 500 feet of the subject parcel (Figure 1). No subsurface testing was conducted during this assessment because of the active parking lot, but the project management plan includes stripping of asphalt prior to new construction and archaeological testing. In addition, archaeological monitoring will be conducted during the demolition of the 550 Building and during the proposed construction related excavations of the parcel (see the "Management Plan" section of this report). 1 Project Setting The 500 Brickell parcel encompasses ±1.27 acres, representing eight lots that are bounded by Southeast Fifth Street to the north, by Lot 9 to the west, by Brickell Avenue to the east, and by Southeast Sixth Street to the south. The parcel is located in Section 38 of Township 54S, Range 41E, and the relevant USGS map is the Miami Quadrangle (rev. 1969). The project parcel lies about 300 feet south of the south bank of the Miami River and about 750 feet west of the mouth of the river and Biscayne Bay. The parcel's proximity to the confluence of the Miami River and Biscayne Bay made it an ideal location for prehistoric and historic activity. In the recent past, this location encouraged urban development, altering the project parcel from a quiet, residential neighborhood into a commercial district in the center of the City of Miami. Prior to development, the parcel was part of the Brickell Hammock, a mixed forest of tropical trees that extended from the mouth of the Miami River southward to Coconut Grove, a distance of about four miles. The USGS soil map for the parcel describes the parcel as Urban land, or an area where more than 85% of the surface is covered by shopping centers, parking lots, streets, sidewalls, buildings, houses, and other structures where natural soils are not easily observed. The soils in the remaining open areas are mainly Udorthents. These soils have generally been altered by land grading and shaping or have been covered with about 18" of extremely stony, loamy fill. The bedrock is Miami Oolite, a limestone that characterizes the Atlantic Coastal Ridge, a natural formation that extends north and south along the southeastern coast of Florida. The Atlantic Coastal Ridge contains numerous solution holes, features that are of potential archaeological importance because they contain deep areas of sediment that often attracted prehistoric and historic activities. These activities included their use for graves, trash pits, and cultivation. Previous Research The earliest documented visit to the Miami River and the Biscayne Bay area by an archaeologist was in 1869 by Jeffries Wyman, who made some cursory notes on his visit and conducted limited investigations of aboriginal mounds and middens on both sides of the river (Eck 2000, Gifford 1978). He reported a mound "...about eleven feet high, sixty long and forty broad, covered with sand" and composed of limestone fragments located about one-half mile from Biscayne Bay and 150 yards south of the Miami River. He conducted a small excavation but did not find anything. This mound, the Miami Rock Mound #2 (8DA17), located approximately one -eighth mile southwest of the project parcel (Figure 1), was destroyed at an unknown date. The mound is tentatively dated to the prehistoric Glades period. Andrew E. Douglass (1885) made an extensive survey of mounds at the mouth of the Miami River in 1882, including DA17. Douglass examined a looter's hole in the mound and found a modern coffin and bones. He noted a black dirt and shell midden on the north bank of the Miami River near the Convention Center and the Brickell Avenue bridge. This site, the Miami Midden 1 (8DA11), or Granada, was the principal site of the town of the Tequesta during the Spanish contact period. This site is across the river from the project parcel (Figure 1). Several sand mounds and middens were reported on Brickell Point and in Brickell within the area of the project parcel. The project parcel is located within the archaeological site Miami Midden 42 (8DA12), which encompasses Brickell Point and the Miami Circle, Douglass reported a sand mound 1000 feet south/southwest of Brickell Point (8DA13), which would have been located about 400 ft southeast of the project parcel (Figure 1). John Goggin recorded the Brickell Point site as Miami Midden #2 (8DA12) in his inventory of southern Florida sites (n.d.). He noted that the old Brickell home " [was] built on top of the refuse... [of] a low black dirt midden with some shell," probably referring to an area on what is now the Sheraton Hotel property, directly east of the project parcel. An advocational archaeologist, Dan Laxson, conducted excavations on the Elks Club property (within the Sheraton parcel) in 1958 and 1959 (Laxson 1959:67-68). Laxson's trenches were dug about 100 meters to the south of the southeast corner of the Brickell Point Apartments. His excavations uncovered extensive aboriginal black dirt midden deposits that were assigned the site number 8DA98 (FMSF 1959). As youths in 1961, Carr and his friend, Mark Greene, excavated a single trench about two meters long on top of the bluff at a location now occupied by the Sheraton Hotel (Carr and Greene 1961). They also investigated below the crawl space of the last remaining Brickell mansion and observed white sand, a large number of human teeth, and artifacts suggesting that a burial mound once might have been located there. Carr also collected a large quantity of glass beads and other artifacts associated with the Brickell Trading Post (Carr 1981b). In 1978-1980, the Dade County Historic Survey was completed. The survey included a review of archival and archaeological materials, as well as field visits to archaeological sites throughout urban Miami -Dade County (Carr 1981 a). The survey recorded extensive 4 evidence of prehistoric occupation at Brickell Point and along the south bank of the Miami River. A review of archival records indicated that an area of prehistoric occupation extended for at least 1000 feet south of the Miami River along Biscayne Bay and at least 1000 feet westward along the Miami River to an area just east of the Miami Avenue Bridge. A prehistoric midden with a historic component, the South Bank site (8DA1037), is located to the east of this bridge (Figure 1). Near the Metrorail is a Late Archaic to Glades I site (DA2137), which was discovered during the construction of the Metrorail (Figure 1). In 1980, the Elks Club parcel was scheduled for the construction of a Holiday Inn Hotel (now the Sheraton). The Miami -Dade County Historic Preservation Division organized salvage excavations directed by Carr using student volunteers from the University of Miami and members of the Archaeological Society of Southern Florida. The three-month project uncovered well-preserved black dirt midden averaging 50 cm in depth. The project area was included under the Florida Master Site File number 8DA98, but is now considered to be a component of 8DA12, as described by Goggin's original determination for the overall Brickell Point site. Thousands of prehistoric and historic artifacts, as well as faunal bone were collected reflecting human activities dating back over 2000 years, with including a significant nineteenth century occupation. Six radiocarbon dates were obtained from basal midden horizons during these excavations. These dates suggest that this part of 8DA12 was first occupied during the early Glades I Period (A.D. 1-A.D. 750). Testing was conducted at Brickell Park by Carr with students from the University of Miami in 1980. Several test pits dug on the north side of the mausoleum resulted in the discovery of human bones and teeth. In 1998, the Miami Circle was discovered at Brickell Point during monitoring of demolition of the Brickell Apartments. The discovery of this significant site led to its public acquisition by the state of Florida and Miami -Dade County (Carr and Ricisak 2000). The site, thought to be the footprint of a prehistoric structure, has been radiocarbon dated to over 2000 years old. In 2001, Brickell Park, located directly east of the project parcel, was assessed by the Archaeological and Historical Conservancy, resulting in the locating of human remains there (Carr et al., 2001). Over 40% of the test pits dug were positive for human material, and 95% were positive for culture material typical of prehistoric black dirt middens. One test pit also uncovered a ca.1900 trash deposit. This assessment revealed that Brickell Park encompasses a significant prehistoric Tequesta cemetery, containing graves probably associated with site 8DA12. Previous archaeological investigations at the other parts of the site, specifically at the Sheraton Hotel (Carr, 1981a) and the Miami Circle (Carr and Ricisak 2000) revealed only a few fragmentary human bones and teeth, reinforcing the conclusion that the site's human remains were largely interred south of the major village, at least in part, in what is now Brickell Park. The park and surrounding area were deliberately selected for mortuary practices. Other discoveries of prehistoric artifacts, features and sites have been made during archaeological surveys and monitoring within one mile of the project parcel. At the 1441 Brickell Avenue parcel, isolated pottery sherds, shell refuse and a cache of shell celts 5 were uncovered (Haiduven, 1999). Miami Sand Mound #2 (8DA15) was located about 200 yards from the Biscayne Bay shore and one quarter mile south of the river (Douglass, 1885; Goggin, Master Site File). Straight (unpublished manuscript, 2002) locates the mound one-half block south of present day Southwest Eighth Street (Figure 1). This places it south-southwest of Mound #4. Douglass (1885:145) described a burial mound "about 200 yards from the shore of the Bay, at a point about a quarter of a mile south of the [Miami} river", where he "found many burials, but in such a state of decay, as to be merely distinguishable by a shade in the sand". He reported the discovery of a "beautiful earthen cup symmetrically shaped, and ornamented with incised lines of graceful pattern..." within the mound (Douglass, 1885:145). Sand Mound #2 is tentatively assigned an early Glades II date (Willey, 1949). The mound was probably leveled during the construction of Brickell Avenue in 1896 (Straight, unpublished manuscript, 2002). An archaeological site (8DA3220) is located within Jose Marti Park, which is situated about one-half mile west of the project parcel on the original bank of the river (Figure 1). It is a shallow, prehistoric midden dated to the Glades I period discovered by Carr in 1983. A human cranium was discovered at this site, as well as sand -tempered plain pottery, worked bone, faunal bone, lithics, a shell point or awl, shell refuse, and a fragment of a wooden log approximately 40 cm in length. The deposits were concentrated in discrete areas suggesting specific activity areas (Florida Master Site File). Out of four 5-foot units excavated, the densest concentration of material was recovered from the most northerly unit closest to the river. Solution holes, up to 14 inches in depth, also were repositories of prehistoric material. The site was capped by fill during construction of the park. Other recent archaeological discoveries made within 500 feet of the subject parcel include the uncovering of a shell cel.t by Carr in 1998 during construction of a new sidewalk in front of 550 Brickell Avenue. No other artifacts were found, but shell refuse and faunal bone observed there suggest that site 8DA12 extends westward from Brickell Point. On Lots 9 and 10, while Carr was the Miami -Dade County archaeologist, a large solution hole bisected by the lot boundary line was discovered during excavations in Lot 10. The solution hole contained a large quantity of historic refuse dating from ca. 1900 and some prehistoric refuse. Collected materials now repose at the Historical Museum of Southern Florida. Located about 200 feet north of the subject parcel is site 8DA1.064, the Custom House site, which extended westward to Tommy's Boat Yard (Figure 1). This site is composed of an extensive prehistoric midden and the mid nineteenth century homestead of Robert Fletcher, who received title to his parcel in 1844. Hundreds of artifacts were uncovered during environmental clean-up of the parcel in the mid-1990s, and archaeological monitoring continues during the current development of the boatyard parcel. History of Land Use The project parcel lies at the confluence of the Miami River and Biscayne Bay, but the proximity to these bodies of water did not greatly influence development within the parcel as much as its proximity to the Miami City center. The history of the parcel begins in the early days of the fledging City of Miami, and urban development in the last twenty years has altered the area considerably. The project parcel was originally part of a 640-acre parcel granted to John Egan in 1808 by the Spanish government, which was deeded to his wife Rebecca after his death (Robbins et al., 1907). Egan was later mistakenly spelled as Hagan, and the land became the "Mrs. Hagan Donation" to the City of Miami. This record of title was corrected in 1888. The land was sold to R. Fitzpatrick in 1831, who in turn sold it to William English in the mid nineteenth century. The Brickell family bought all of English's land south of the Miami River when they moved to Miami in December, 1870 (Parks, 1987; Gaby, 1993). At the turn of the nineteenth century, the area south of the river was known as "Southside". Brickell Avenue was the northern end of the Coconut Grove Trail, which. was a rocky, dirt road so narrow that passing through the hammock south of the project parcel was like traveling through a "green wall" (Peters, 1984:20). It was notorious for being infested with dangerous creatures such as rattlesnakes and panthers. In 1896, William Brickell's ferry service was the only way to cross the river from the city into the Brickell area. The Brickells bad the Southside area platted in 1905, and the project parcel became part of the Mary Brickell Subdivision Addition B-113. In 1906, there were few people living in the subdivision. Besides the Brickells on Brickell Point, one of the only other residents was S. Bobo Dean, the editor of the Miami Metropolis, who lived on Nineteenth Street (now Southeast Seventh Street) with his family so that he could raise cows and chickens, which he could not do in the city (Peters, 1984). No one lived on the project parcel at this time. The first documented resident to live on the project parcel was George McKinnon, the secretary of The JA McDonald Company, who resided at 235 Eighteenth Street (41 Southeast Sixth Street), on Lot 8, as early as 1907 (City Directory, 1907, 1908; Appendix 1). Southside experienced a boom around 1909, and soon residents formed the Southside Improvement Association, which worked on, among other things, getting a school in the area (Peters, 1984). By 1910, there were four houses situated on the project parcel (Sanborn Map Co.. 1910). Besides the McKinnon home on Lot 8, there were residences on Lots 1, 4, and 6 (Figure 2). The house built on Lot 4 was the Ferris Home (site 8DA367, named after most recent resident), at 59 Southeast Sixth Street, which was built circa 1907. The City Directory lists W. Cuiberson, a teller, living there with his wife beginning in 1908, but historic records indicate that H. Patkinson and Mary Brickell owned the house as early as 1907 (Florida Historic Structure Form, on file at the Office of Historic Preservation. Miami). On Lot 6, at 51 Southeast Sixth Street, US Engineer Hobart Crabtree lived with his wife around 1911. Two more homes were built on the project parcel by 1914. on Lots 3 and 5 (Sanborn Map Co., 1914). The neighborhood was mainly middle class, white-collar workers, which included clerks, managers, mechanics, and contractors (City Directory, 1911-1915; Appendix 1). Around 1919, the first and only apartment building was built on the project parcel, on Lot 7, at 47-49 Southeast Sixth Street. In the 1920s and 1930s it was called Del -Ray Apartments and held only four residents (Sanborn. Map Co., 1926; G.M. Hopkins, 1936; City Directory, 1921-1940). In 1926, all lots except Lot 2 had standing structures, most of which were residences (Figure 3). The large McKinnon house became the Sunny Oaks Sanitarium in 1919 (City Directory, 1919), and the Gowdy Hospital in 1921 (City Directory, 1921). By 1935, the home had reverted to a residence. The first Brickell Bridge was built in 1926, creating easy access to the Brickell area from downtown Miami, and Brickell Avenue was paved in the 1930s (Murrell, 2003), but the project parcel did n.ot change much through the 1930s and 1940s. Much of the parcel was buffered from activity on the Miami River to the north by parcels owned by the heirs to the Brickell fortune. North of Lot 8 was Tommy's Boat Yard, and to the northwest of the parcel was commercial land used by the Gulf Oil Relining Company. In 1936, all lots except for Lot 2 held residences (G.M. Hopkins, 1936). In the 1930s and 1940s, the project parcel was occupied by many widows (City Directory, 1931-1953-4; Appendix 1). Writer Hattie Carpenter occupied the historic Ferris house from the 1920s to the 1950s (Appendix 1; City Directory, 1921-1960). The first commercial building, the 550 Building, was built on Lots 1 and 2, on Brickell Avenue in the early 1950s (City Directory, 1953-4; G.M. Hopkins, 1947; Sanborn Map Co., 1953). The house on Lot 1, at 522 Brickell Avenue, was demolished for this development. The 550 Office Building held an apothecary shop, an optical dispensary, law firms, and doctors and dentists offices in the 1950s (City Directory, 1953-4). The character of the project parcel began to change with the advent of commercialization. By 1965, the houses on Lot 3, at 63 Southeast Sixth Street, and on Lot 6, at 51 Southeast Sixth Street, were razed and there were parking lots in their place. By 1970, there were only five residents still living on the project parcel (City Directory, 1970). Commercialization steadily encroached upon the neighborhood, and one by one, all of the houses were demolished. Even though historic status was conferred on the Ferris house, at 59 Southeast Sixth Street around 1974, it did not save the structure and it was demolished at some time in the 1980s, as were the rest of the houses on the project parcel. Today, the 550 Building continues to occupy Lots 1 and 2 on Brickell Avenue, and still contains law films and offices. The bottom floor contains a coffee shop, a Kinko's, a beauty salon, and a Subway. Lots 3-8 are all commercial parking lots; nothing remains of the historic neighborhood.

There is extensive evidence of archaeological sites, features, and artifacts occurring adjacent to the subject parcel. It would seem unlikely, however, that extensive midden or historic deposits have survived intact on the parcel considering the numerous episodes of clearing, building, and demolition that have occurred there in the past 100 years with the important exception of possible deeper archaeological deposits. Solution holes, such as the one known to occur in Lots 9 and 10, often contain these deep deposits and are commonplace in limestone bedrock. 10 Management Plan The applicant will maintain the archaeological consultant to document any archaeological sites, features, and artifacts that might be uncovered during the development of the parcel. The following archaeological actions will be conducted as part of the archaeological management plan: An archaeologist will provide inteinsittent monitoring, as needed, during the demolition process of the 550 Brickell Building. 2. Prior to construction activities, a phase 1 archaeological survey will be conducted on the parcel. The parking asphalt will be removed and phase 1 testing will be conducted across the lot. 3. During initial construction excavation activities, archaeological monitoring will be conducted across the parcel_ 4. Any significant sites or features uncovered during pre -construction and construction activities will be fully documented by the archaeologist. 5. If a significant discovery is made, written .notice will be provided to the County and City Archaeologist and to the City of Miami Historic Preservation Planner. If human remains are uncovered, then the guidelines provided by State Statute 872.05, the Unmarked Human Graves Act, will apply. 6. All collected artifacts will be transferred and will repose at the Historical Museum of Southern Florida. 7. A final archaeological report will be provided to the County and City Archaeologist and to the City of Miami Historic Preservation Planner. 11 References Cited Carr, Robert S. 1981 a The Archeological Survey, Dade County Historic Survey, Final Report.
