Culmer Station: It is recommended that'the Culmer station site be located in a 5.2 acre area bounded by N.W. 7th Avenue on the east, N.W. llth Street on the south, N.W. 8th Street Road on the west, and approximately 200 feet south of N.W. 12th Street on the north (Figure A). Santa Clara Station:' It is recommended that the Santa Clara station site be in a 3.4_acre area bounded by N.W. 12th Avenue on the east, N.W. 20th Street on the south, N.W. 13th Avenue on the west, and N.W. 21st Street on the north (Figure 8). Allapattah Station: It is recommended that the Allapattah station site be within a 6.2 acre area bounded by N.W. 36th Street to the north, N.W. 12th Avenue to the west, N.W. llth Court to the east and N.W. 33rd Street to the south. In addition, it is recommended that an express bus loading facility be located within a 1.4 acre area bounded by N.W. 36th Street to the south, N.W. 12th Avenue to the west, N.W. llth Avenue to the east and the northern boundary be an alley located approximately 150 feet from N.W. 36th Street. (Figure C). Each of the station location sites recommended by the Kaiser Transit Group and outlined above, corresponds to the recommendations reached May 2, 1978, by the Milestone E Committee for Station Group 5. In addition to the recommended station site location for the Culmer Station, the Milestone E Committee voted to include in their recommendation the addition of parking facilities at the Culmer Station. r i 1 N.W. 37th ST.

The station sites are all located within the City of Miami in the areas of Culmer, Santa Clara and Allapattah (Figure I-2). The Milestone E Committee, in reviewing the alternative station sites, recommended final station locatons and thus concluded the last of three levels of screening analysis used to identify each station site. The screenings were designed so each level performed a different function. Level 1. Eliminated alternative sites which were clearly inadequate in performance or were over budget; Level 2. Eliminated less satisfactory alternatives after more detailed analysis; and • Level 3. Recommended the best remaining site alternative for each identified station location. The participants in each succeeding level,of screening were increasingly broad in representation. The first level was conducted by Kaiser Transit Group (KTG); the second level involved representatives of numerous public agencies (i.e., Dade County Office of Transportation Administration, Dade County Department of Public Works, City of Miami and so forth); and the third level consisted primarily of the citizen involvement process with the Milestone E Committee. The final alternative station sites evaluated by the Milestone E Committee were those which provided adequate site area and could be acquired within the available budget. 1 NO SCALE LEGEND 1-DADELAND SOUTH 2-DADELAND NORTH 3-SOUTH MIAMI 4-UNIVERSITY 5-DOUGLAS ROAD 6-COCONUT GROVE 7-VIZCAYA 8-BRICKELL 9-GOVERNMENT CENTER 10-WASHINGTON HEIGHTS ?' ?CULMER iif2g CIVIC CENTER R1'SANTA CLARA i1414TALLAPATTAH 15-EARLINGTON HEIGHTS 16-BROWNSVILLE 17-GLADEVIEW 18-NORTHSIDE 19-HIALEAH 20-OKEECHOBEE FIGURE 1-1 STAGE 1 ALIGNMENT STATIONS and STATION GROUPS • =Mt SANTA CLARA1 1 -1 1 ] \ i t \ 1 --u------1 1\7-1 1----- ALLAPATAH _i 1 1 _ Lit...it 1 ..

Community Disruption and Displacement - An estimate was provided of the number of buildings, people, and jobs which would be relocated as a result of construction on each alternative station site. Traffic - An analysis was made of probable changes in vehicular and pedestrian movements resulting from a given station location. This analysis used data from the feeder bus studies, mode of access model and patron origin and destination studies. Necessary roadway, signalization and intersection improvements were also addressed. ° Site Design - Each alternative site was studied to determine design constraints relative to site requirements. These studies include long-term and kiss -and -ride parking requirements, internal (on -site) circulation, walking distances, height of parking structures, and actual station configuration. The following section'of this report summarizes the information presented on the alternative station sites reviewed by the Milestone E Committee. The Committee was presented two alternatives for each of the Allapattah and Santa Clara Stations. The Culmer Station had no alternative due to the alignment of the guideway and virtually no large parcels of land were required for parking facilities. 4 The third section of this report summarizes the Milestone E Committee's proceedings and its recommendations. The final section of the report summarites the Kaiser Transit Group recommendations. The appendix includes a copy of the resolution passed by the Milestone E CoMmittee on May 2, 1978, 5 1 Ii. ALTERNATIVE STATION SIDES This section of the report presents information oh the alternative station sites which were identified as feasible and desirable for the location of the Group 5 stations► CULMER STATION LOCATION AND CHARACTERISTICS In evaluating alternative station locations for the Culmer Station, it was determined that only one site identified was feasible because of the following factors: (Figure A-1) a. The proposed station location would provide the best possible access to the Culmer neighborhood. b. Alternative station sites further west on N.W. llth Street were not possible because the transit guideway must curve to parallel Wagner Creek to cross the East-West Expressway, and a transit station cannot be placed on a curve. c. Alternative station sites further east on N.W. llth Street were not possible because the transit system guideway must curve to go from N.W. llth Street to N.W. llth Terrace, and a transit station cannot be placed on a curve. 2. PATRONAGE The number of people who will board the transit system or get off at the Culmer Station has been projected. The following maps show where riders would come from to board the rail system and where riders would go when they get off at this station, not including return trips. 6 oil- .. • ,- ''4- " - : .p;,,,K.,,v.

The total number of riders boarding at this station will be about 4,240 per day. (Figure A-2). These riders will get on the rail system at this station to go to such places as Dadeland or Hialeah. Those getting off the system at this station (approximately 4,240) will be destined for places in this area such as .for work and business. Approximately 1,300 will go north, approximately 1,250 will go south and with the greatest number of 1,690 traveling east (Figure A-3). Of the total riders coming to this station, 28 percent will be dropped off, 33 percent will walk and about 39 percent will come by bus. Of those leaving the station, 38 percent will likely walk and 62 percent will take the bus. 3. LAND USE AND ZONING The site is comprised of vacant land, residential structures (vacant and occupied) and one commercial use. Warehousing and institutional uses exist to the east and a multi -family housing development known as "Culmer Village" to the southeast. North of the site is single family and some multi -family housing and to the south is a vacant school structure. Thesite is zoned R-4 (Multiple Residential) with the frontage along N.W. llth Street and N.W. 7th Avenue C-2 (Commercial). (Figure A-4) The Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan proposes mixed land use for the station area. The specific concept is to develop the area with neighborhood commercial activities along with residential uses. 4.

ENVIRONMENT The potential for air pollution resulting from the utilization of the site as a transit station is not currently known. There are no noise sensitive uses which would be affected by this site. Although a major part of the site has no structures, there is some vegetation. All efforts will be taken in the station design to incorporate any significant tree stands. The potential for water pollution appears to be limited to the construction period. Due to the close proximity of the site to Wagner Creek, every effort will be made to contain site runoff during construction activities. There is one historical structure existing at 1145 N.W. 8th Avenue which will remain at the northwest corner of the station site. The site plan propoes to take land up to the historic structure so a proper buffer area can be maintained and minimal impacts imposed in the future. The home is known as the Wagner Homestead: Cassell House. 12 1 6.

Elm intw • MEM MIER Most of the people projected to come to the Santa Clara 'Station are expected to come from the east (about 1230 riders). The rest would be coming from the west (about 980 riders). The total number of riders boarding at this station will be•about 2210 per day (Figure B-3). These riders will get on the rail system at this station to go to such places as Dadeland, downtown Miami or Hialeah. Those getting off the system at this station (approximately 3160 riders) will be destined for points in this area such as the Miami Stadium, Garment District and places of employment. About 1160 riders are expected to go southeast and approximately 950 riders to go southwest (Figure B-4). Of the total riders coming to this station, about 13 percent will be dropped off, 30 percent will drive themselves, 34 percent will walk and about 23 percent will come by bus. Of those leaving the station, 78 percent will likely walk and the remaining 22 percent will take the bus. 3.

Fermi teed uses include such uses as Manufacturing of sudh r ducts as cosmetics, drugs, food and dairy goods, metal products and Mastics. The zoning also allows machine shops and railroad freight and assenger stations. Zoning on the surrounding areas to the north, east and west is also I-1. The property immediately south of N.W. 12th Avenue is zoned GU (government use) or C-4 (general commercial). The latter allows such uses as hotels, motels, gasoline stations, automobile garages for service and repair, electric repair shops, wholesale merchandise brokers and manufacturing of certain products from previously prepared materials (Figure B-5). The County Plan's 1985 Metropolitan Development Pattern Map proposes a strip of industrial use on the north side of N.W. 20th Street immediately followed by medium density residential use. Immediately south of N.W. 20th Street at the intersection of N,W. 12th Avenue, a specialized Metropolitan Activity Center surrounded by medium to medium high density residential development is proposed. The Miami Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan proposes industrial uses (warehousing and manufacturing) north of N.W. 20th Street and public and quasi -public uses (institutional/governmental) south of N.W. 20th Street. 4.

ENVIRONMENT There are no public parks or historic sites within or adjacent to the boundaries of the proposed sites. there are no noise sensitive uses surrounding the sites. Since both of the parcels have been developed or disturbed, there are no natural communities to be considered. 6. TRAFFIC The largest volume of station traffic for these sites is the eastbound traffic on 20th Street. The improvements for both alternatives will be similar. a. Alternative Site 5 This site would require improvements (repairing) of two local streets adjacent to the site. The intersections of N.W. 13th Avenue and N.W. 20th Street and N.W. 12th Avenue and N.W. 21st Street will have to be signalized (Figure B-6). 22 o Alternative Site 6 This site would require improvements of two local streets adjacent to the site.

They are both shown on the aerial photographs (Figures Col and CM2), 2. PATRONAGE The number of people who will board the transit system or get off at the Allapattah Station has been projected. The following maps show where riders would come from to board the rail system and where riders would go when they get off at this station, not including return trips. (Figures C-3 and C-4). Most of the people projected to come to the Allapattah Station are expected to come from the north (about 10,780 riders), with about 4210 riders expected from the northeast and about 3430 riders from the southeast. Finally, about 1500 riders will come from the west. There will be a total. of 19,925 riders boarding at this station per day (Figure C-3). These riders will get on the rail system at this station to go elsewhere, such as Dadeland, downtown Miami or Coral Gables area. Those getting off the system at this station (approximately 5475 riders) will be destined for points in this area, such as places of work and business. Approximately 565 riders will go west, about 1910 riders will go east and about 3000 will be destined for areas to the north (Figure C-4). 0f the total riders coming to the station, about 3 percent will be dropped off, 10 percent will drive themselves, 5 percent will walk, about 12 percent will come by local bus, and about 70 percent will arrive via express bus. 0f those leaving the station, 6 percent will likely walk and 30 percent will take the local bus and 64 percent will depart via express bus. 25 Zakti 1 r�jy• • • { o- , ♦ • 3 Ott OT ram', :.•. 6 g$ a. • `.4•4• A. • • 1 tit[ •,,••�y`5��X`' . • }St'. if 11• i 1 •`♦J',.. v. • t Q e. tens* ` • ^fit! • .
