<br /> • Kimley-Horn is working closely with the City of Homestead and ,;.. a
<br /> the community with the hope that their work will be a catalyst for v" -. 3/4:
<br /> redevelopment in the area. The SW 4th Street neighborhood has 4
<br /> • traditionally been a minority community. The project was the site of what ii, ' \: r y
<br /> O was once a bustling business district that included a great mixture of r�
<br /> restaurants, jazz clubs, churches, etc. The residents want this area to 4 - OU F]: S,
<br /> ® be restored to its former glory. The first step in this plan is to revitalize clic , 'ue'ghb° a`�foinie t
<br /> ® a six-block area. A team from Kimley-Horn worked with the community , Ya
<br /> ® to learn about the issues and concerns such as drainage problems, -�_
<br /> which contribute to flooding, broken sidewalks, safety concerns, and y � ' t
<br /> ® increased parking needs. We are redesigning the curb and gutter system be.,v►' ''��''` , T1s i i
