<br />Bicentennial Maritime Park Master Plan, Port of Miami, Miami, FL. Master plan for a downtown
<br />park including four cruise ship berths, an outdoor amphitheater, vita course, soccer fields, nature
<br />walks, open spaces, retail shops and restaurants.
<br />Maroone Nissan, Fort Lauderdale, FL. BEA was contracted to remodel approximately 5,000
<br />SF of existing showroom and customer lounge space, as well as reclad façades and create a new
<br />entrance feature. The $600,000 project, completed in early 2003, employs architectural pre-cast
<br />concrete and smooth metal panels consistent with Nissan’s national standards.
<br />Bill Seidle Dealerships, Miami and Davie, FL. Project manager for complete A/E services for two
<br />dealerships: Suzuki in Davie, FL: 11,000 SF, $1.2 million new facility including site improvements.
<br />Nissan in Miami, FL: 5,000 SF, second-floor addition, $2.75 million.
<br />Parking Garage for Royal Caribbean International, Port of Miami, FL. Project architect for the
<br />750-space, four-story garage, including an on-site FP&L energy plant. The project is conceived to
<br />allow for a twin of the first parking structure.
<br />Muvico Theaters, Boca Raton, FL. Project architect for this 515-car, two-story parking garage.
<br />Maroone Nissan, Miami, FL. This $4 million, 40,000-SF compound consists of different facilities—a
<br />two-story, 12,000-SF showroom and a 28,000-SF service center with a storage mezzanine—on two
<br />sites separated by a street. Architecturally, the buildings share a modern vocabulary of pre-cast
<br />concrete and smooth metal panels consistent with Nissan’s national standards. The service center
<br />contains high-bay facilities and separate wash and paint bays. Located in the heart of Miami’s
<br />Little Havana neighborhood, the dealership opened in spring 2003.
<br />Sunshine Ford, Miami, FL. The Sunshine Ford dealership was remodeled to meet current Ford
<br />Motor Corp. specifications. Renovation occurred without impacting operation of the facility. Floor
<br />plans were remodeled; restrooms were upgraded to ADA compliance; and ceilings, flooring, wall
<br />coverings, doors, hardware and fireproofing were renovated.
<br />Miami Honda, Miami, FL. A 73,000-SF, two-story, high-bay facility for a new Honda dealership was
<br />designed. A vehicle maintenance facility was an important component of this project’s successful
<br />planning, design and management. Construction cost for the building was $3.7 million with $1.3
<br />million for site work. The dealership is located on 9.2 acres of paved and landscaped commercial
<br />property adjacent to the heavily trafficked Palmetto Expressway.
<br />Passenger Cruise Terminal, Tampa Port Authority, Port of Tampa, FL. Master planning, MEP
<br />engineering, structural engineering, construction documents and interior design services were pro-
<br />vided for the 110,000-SF facility. Targeted to accommodate 3,000 passengers, the master plan for
<br />the terminal allowed for site development revolving around market demand. Moreover, phasing was
<br />coordinated with the U.S. Navy’s expected departure from an on-site training facility.
<br />Passenger Cruise Terminals 6 & 7, Canaveral Port Authority, Cape Canaveral, FL. Mr. Colao
<br />was responsible for the preliminary design and design development of Cruise Terminals 6 & 7 as
<br />a “super megacruise terminal” able to handle up to 4,500 passengers. The facility accommodates
<br />two 1,500- to 1,600-passenger ships simultaneously, or one vessel of over 3,500 passengers. The
<br />design also integrates Cruise Terminal 5 directly adjacent to the site, an interface that will allow the
<br />complex to handle the “World City Ship,” a vessel planned to accommodate over 6,000 passengers.
<br />Passenger Cruise Terminals 3, 4 & 5, Port of Miami, FL. Mr. Colao provided preliminary design,
<br />design development, construction documents and construction administration for this $76 million
<br />renovation project to accommodate two Legend Class ships or two Eagle Class ships simultaneously.
<br />Passenger Cruise Terminals 9 & 10, Canaveral Port Authority, Cape Canaveral, FL. Mr. Colao
<br />managed the construction documents and construction administration for this two-story, 70,000-SF
<br />multifunctional facility that can accommodate one 3,500-passenger megaship, or two, 1,600-passenger
<br />standard class ships.
