AECOM Section 2 Sunny Isles Beach Heritage Park and Parking Garage Sunny Isles Beach, FL Key Personnel: Nina Gladstone, Ovidio Rodriquez, Orlando Hernandez, Grep Ault, Gustavo Santana AECOM was chosen by the City of Sunny Isles Beach to plan and design a new parking garage to be located within a new community park. The proposed site consisted of 5 acres with approximately one acre being dedicated to the garage and the remaining four acres for a new public park called Heritage Park (also designed by AECOM). The parking garage consists of 4- levels and 515 spaces with first floorfunctional areas being dedicated to concessions, park support, and portions of the City's Public Works Department in an effort to activate street level activities. The park component includes a children's playground, public plaza area, gazebo for community events and multipurpose green space. Paramount among the design goals was to create a garage which blended in with the park while simultaneously complementing the overall contemporary image of the City of Sunny Isles Beach. The garage site is immediately adjacent to the Atlantic Ocean immediately north of Miami Beach. There was a design concern that the salt water environment of the garage could cause premature aging of its structure. As a result, the decision was made to use a post tensioned structure for its long term durability and maintenance free structure against these negative environmental impacts. Due to the typical poor soil conditions found in Miami Beach, the ground floor was designed as a structural slab and the building is supported by a deep piling system to ensure structural integrity during hurricane season.
