78 City of Sunny Isles Beach New Facility Qualifications for Architectural Design Services <br />A new Community Center and Aquatic <br />Park was designed for The Town <br />of Surfside, Florida that totals ap- <br />proximately 30,000 square feet. The <br />project, located on the ocean in this <br />midcentury modern inspired com- <br />munity includes wellness, Community <br />Spaces, Library, Art Classrooms and <br />Administration Spaces for the Town’s <br />Park and Recreation Department. <br />This new facility replaces a 1960’s era <br />building that had become functionally <br />obsolete both in programmatic layout <br />and adherence to current building <br />codes. <br />The new community center floats a <br />raised second and third floor over the <br />smaller ground floor uses to allow <br />views through to the ocean beyond; the <br />architectural palette of smooth stucco, <br />geometric sun-screening devices and <br />glass mosaic tile becomes a contem- <br />porary reinterpretation of the 1950’s <br />architectural style that is seen in both <br />the commercial and residential archi- <br />tecture of the community. <br />*Personal experience of Lawrence Kline, <br />Project Designer while at AECOM (Spillis <br />Candela & Partners) <br />CLIENT <br />Town of Surfside <br />9293 Harding Avenue <br />Surfside, Florida <br />t. 305.861.4863 <br />OCATION Surfside, Florida <br />COMPLETION DATE Phase I: July 2011 <br />CONSTRUCTION COST $6 million <br />SIZE 6,000 square feet - Phase I <br />TOWN OF SURFSIDESURFSIDE COMMUNITY CENTER
