City of Miami Museum Park Baywalk Phase 3 Miami, Florida Miller Legg provided landscape architecture, civil engineering, lighting/electrical engineering, surveying, SUE, permitting and limited construction administration services for the Miami Baywalk Phase 3 Project. The Project runs approximately 1200 feet along the southern bulkhead of the turning basin and is 30 – 50 feet in width. Permitting for project improvements was provided through the City of Miami, Miami-Dade County and South Florida Water Management District. Underground utility designation for electric and drainage utilities was performed. The project is a 1/4- mile pedestrian-oriented urban waterfront park and promenade on Biscayne Bay, located adjacent to the east coast greenway. It provides a unique open space that links the American Airlines Arena, Biscayne Boulevard, and Museum Park. The Baywalk design includes custom native stone benches, extensive paver pedestrian spaces, salt-tolerant tropical plantings, as well as themed lighting and site amenities. Due to historic maritime activities in the project area, soil conditions were addressed through the design of unique drainage facilities that minimized potential groundwater impacts. The Baywalk design solution also improved visibility and lighting in the area to discourage vagrancy issues that existed. The planting design not only enhanced aesthetics, but also buffered unsightly adjacent parking and utility areas and minimized exposed surfaces that had been subject to graffiti. This project was performed under our Miscellaneous Landscape Architectural Services contract.
