<br />Faena Miami Beach, Miami, FL — Serving as project engineer. Stretching five blocks along Collins Avenue, this ambitious
<br />project involves the renovation and improvement of a number of existing, historic Miami Beach hotels including the Saxony
<br />Hotel, the Versailles Hotel, the Atlantic Hotel, and the Claridge Hotel. In addition, three new buildings will be constructed.
<br />These include the Faena Art Center, Faena House, and Faena Park. A marina is also planned. Kimley-Horn is providing a
<br />range of services for all components of this very complex development project with the exceptions of the Faena Art Center
<br />and the marina. Our services include due diligence; schematic design; site civil engineering pertaining to roadway design and
<br />site planning, as well as utility coordination and design (water, sewer, drainage, electrical, communications); traffic engineering;
<br />landscape architecture; permitting through the City of Miami Beach, Miami-Dade County Water and Sewer Department (WASD)
<br />and RER (Regulatory and Economic Resources), FDOT, FDEP, and SFWMD; preparation of construction documents; and
<br />construction phase assistance. This project is being undertaken in phases with some phases currently under construction
<br />and others in design. Initial components are expected to open in 2015.
<br />University of Miami Interdisciplinary Laboratory Building (AMEDIC), Miami, FL — Served as project analyst.
<br />Kimley-Horn provided site civil design services for this 180,000-square-foot, 10-story building located on a 1.6-acre site.
<br />This research and laboratory structure houses office space, wet laboratories, and an animal research facility. Kimley-Horn’s
<br />design included water, sewer, and fire services to the building, on-site drainage improvements, the design of a Florida Power
<br />& Light utility duct bank, and the design of a BellSouth telecommunication duct bank. The building’s on-site underground
<br />stormwater retention system provides irrigation water to reduce usage of potable water. We also coordinated the permitting
<br />of all service connections and assisted the client during the construction administration phase.
<br />TD Bank (formerly Commerce Bank), Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach Counties, FL — Served as
<br />project analyst for the Kimley-Horn team that has provided a range of transportation planning, traffic engineering, environmental
<br />design, landscape design, and site civil services for this retail bank program in Florida. The firm has investigated more than
<br />300 South Florida locations, and designed and permitted more than 60 sites.
<br />West Sunset Square, Kendall, FL — Served as project engineer. Kimley-Horn provided a variety of consulting services for
<br />this 83,000-square-foot neighborhood center including site planning, civil engineering, roadway design, traffic signal design,
<br />permitting, and construction phase services. This project required significant coordination with multiple county agencies.
<br />Perhaps the most challenging aspect of the project was its location within the Bird Drive Everglades Wetland Basin (BDEWB).
<br />Due to a lack of sufficient surface water storage within the BDEWB, there were restrictions on the development of the site.
<br />Through our local experience and relationships with the Miami-Dade Department of Environmental Resources Management,
<br />Kimley-Horn was able to implement an innovative solution to meet the development criteria, thereby allowing our client to
<br />fully develop the site.
<br />Sian Ocean Residences and Resort (aka Indigo or Indigo/Sian), Hollywood, FL — Served as project analyst.
<br />Sian is a four-phase residential project that sits between the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway. Phase 1 included
<br />a master plan for the 9.5-acre site, reaching from oceanfront property across A1A to the Intracoastal. A pedestrian walkway
<br />connects the entire project, allowing users to walk from a resort pool and docks along the Intracoastal, across A1A, and past
<br />the condominium conversion to a 20-story beachfront tower. This tower includes two units per floor, five penthouses, and its
<br />own private beachfront pool. In Phase 2, Kimley-Horn’s services included landscape architecture, civil and traffic engineering,
<br />roadway, environmental, and structural engineering. This phase involved converting an existing hotel to a hotel/condo with a
<br />temporary parking lot and a large resort-style pool that overlooks the Intracoastal. In addition, it included a new entry area,
<br />fountain wall, and pedestrian crosswalk light.
<br />Divine Savior Academy Expansion, Doral, FL — Serving as project manager. Kimley-Horn is part of the team providing
<br />civil engineering design and permitting services for a three-story high school expansion project at Divine Savior Academy in
<br />Doral. The 108,000-square-foot facility will include a three-story classroom, an auditorium/chapel, gym, and fitness center,
<br />along with athletic fields, courts, and a new parking area.
<br />Dadeland Mall – Fashion Wing, Miami, FL — Serving as project manager. Dadeland Mall, Miami’s original and most
<br />iconic shopping center, added a two-story 102,000-square-foot restaurant and retail space. The Kimley-Horn team provided
<br />civil engineering for this retail development. Services include preparation of construction documents (site plan, signage, striping,
<br />water and sewer), permitting (water, sewer, DERM), utility coordination, and construction observation.
