FIRMS FROM SECTION C INVOLVED WITH THIS PROJECT a.(1) FIRM NAME (2) TITLE AND LOCATION (City and State)(3) ROLE Savino & Miller Design Studio, PA 12345 NE 6th Avenue, North Miami, FL 33161 Landscape Architect b.(1) FIRM NAME (2) TITLE AND LOCATION (City and State)(3) ROLE c.(1) FIRM NAME (2) TITLE AND LOCATION (City and State)(3) ROLE Belle Isle Park, located on the only natural island of the Venetian Islands between Miami and Miami Beach, is a major open space surrounded on three sides by high-density condominium buildings, and Venetian Causeway to the north. The space offered no walkways or large open spaces for play, but was mostly used by residents to walk the dogs. SMDS was asked to create a plan to attract more residents to use the park, and responded with a plan which provided for a range of recreational opportunities. A large elliptical open space formed by a walkway, coupled with a “Bark Park” and numerous small paved seating areas – located by each of the park entry/street crosswalks – allows for both passive and active play activities. Numerous existing trees and palms were preserved or transplanted to create and define the park’s spaces. In addition to the park, SMDS was hired for the Venetian Islands GOB project: a mid-Miami Beach neighborhood general obligation bond project for streetscape, water main and drainage improvements, which included Belle Isle’s streetscape. SMDS’ role was to master plan and prepare street designs for the revised street layout/reconfiguration and signage. The master plan’s major thrust was to call for narrowing streets to facilitate three goals: 1) traffic calming; 2) improve drainage; and 3) increase green space. A number of meetings resulted in creating consensus to target various improvements, i.e. planting, lighting, and sidewalk installation/repair.
