<br />Palmetto Park Road Improvements and Downtown Boca Raton Pedestrian Promenade,
<br />Boca Raton, FL — Landscape architect. For this retail district through the downtown area,
<br />Kimley-Horn provided full roadway and streetscape design and landscape architectural design
<br />to create a pedestrian friendly downtown with emphasis on a promenade connecting Plaza
<br />Real with Mizner Park. Intersections were redesigned to reduce pavement crossing width,
<br />minimize turn lanes, emphasize pedestrian crossings and modify signal timing to improve the
<br />pedestrian and downtown environment. Special emphasis was placed on providing an inviting
<br />pedestrian experience along retail businesses and providing on-street parking. Improvements
<br />include brick paved intersections, introduction of curbless streets along NE 1st Avenue,
<br />reconstruction of Boca Raton Road with an inverted crown roadway with wider sidewalks and
<br />on-street parking. Curbless streets were introduced to enable their use for special events
<br />when streets can be closed for fair events. Landscape and hardscape improvements include
<br />planter islands and wide brick paver sidewalks on both sides of the roadways. Improvements
<br />along Palmetto Park Road include construction of wider brick paver sidewalks, raised brick
<br />paver intersections, lighted bollards, and new decorative street lighting.
<br />24th and 25th Street Improvements, West Palm Beach, FL — Landscape architect
<br />for the Kimley-Horn team retained by the City of West Palm Beach to provide streetscape
<br />improvements in the Northwood neighborhood area. This project is a joint effort between the
<br />City of West Palm Beach and the West Palm Beach Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA)
<br />to reconstruct each of the two-lane roadways with on-street parallel parking on both sides,
<br />thus creating a main street through the District. The project included extensive landscape
<br />and hardscape plans, renderings, decorative street lights, drainage, signing and marking, and
<br />traffic control plans; 24th and 25th streets were also designated as SR 5 and are owned and
<br />maintained by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT). Therefore, permitting and
<br />close coordination with FDOT were necessary. Due to local agency participation, funding was
<br />provided by state and federal governments.
<br />Lake Worth Streetscape Design-Build (includes 10th Avenue North/6th Avenue South
<br />Enhancement Project), Lake Worth, FL — Landscape architect for construction phase.
<br />Kimley-Horn developed a series of streetscape beautification guidelines, as well as private
<br />sector setback and building massing guidelines for the two primary east/west corridors
<br />connecting downtown Lake Worth to I-95. The project consisted of more than 8 miles of
<br />streetscape design guidelines, including landscape material, decorative lighting, street
<br />furniture, hardscape palette gateway features, intersection layouts, and special signage.
<br />The blocks abutting the roadways were studied to provide appropriate setbacks to maximize
<br />pedestrian usage along the corridor.
<br />Martin Luther King, Jr. (MLK) Drive Beautification, Delray Beach CRA, Delray Beach, FL
<br />Project manager on the Kimley-Horn team. Provided landscape architectural master planning
<br />services for the design of landscape, lighting, and hardscape enhancements for the entire
<br />length of Martin Luther King, Jr. (MLK) Drive in Delray Beach. This 1.5-mile corridor will also
<br />incorporate MLK commemorative design elements placed in the right-of-way. The design
<br />concept included the continuation of an existing sidewalk network; decorative lighting; right-
<br />of-way plantings with flowering trees, palms, and other landscaping; a program for live oaks
<br />to be planted outside of the right of way; and artwork on existing utility poles. The master
<br />plan will also address prioritization and phasing of the proposed improvements with respect
<br />to budget. Similar to other community enhancement master plans, public involvement is a
<br />key element in the success of this project. The Kimley-Horn team coordinated closely with a
<br />committee of community representatives to identify community assets and to solicit their ideas
<br />and preferences for incorporation into the master plan.
