t <br />t <br />t <br />Sombrero Beach <br />Redevelopment Plan <br />The City of Marathon has <br />contracted Calvin, Giordano & <br />Associates, Inc. to come up with <br />a conceptual plan to redevelop <br />Sombrero Beach Park, located <br />in the Florida Keys. <br />Calvin, Giordano & Associates, <br />Inc. provided the City with the <br />above conceptual <br />redevelopment plan. The design <br />elements of the park include <br />special pavement treatments at <br />Sombrero Beach Road; <br />improved entry features, <br />pavilions, restroom structures <br />and picnic shelters; and <br />improved walkways to create full <br />access to the entire park site. <br />The park section that is adjacent <br />to Sombrero Beach Road will <br />welcome visitors to the park with <br />special paver designs, <br />landscaping and bench <br />elements. <br />The City of Marathon is well - <br />known for the history of the <br />Flagler Railroad camps and the <br />special architectural design of <br />those buildings on Pigeon Key. <br />The design elements of the <br />park will incorporate the <br />historic railroad venacular <br />theme and reflect the image of <br />the area. <br />The park currently has an <br />active turtle nesting habitat, <br />which has been a significant <br />factor in the overall layout of <br />this plan. The lighting design <br />for this park has been specially <br />designed to ensure that is not <br />detrimental to the hatchlings. <br />Client: <br />City of Marathon, Florida <br />Contact Information: <br />Mr. Craig Wrathell, City <br />Manager <br />11090 Overseas Highway <br />Marathon, Florida 33050 <br />(305) 743 -0033 <br />Project Date: <br />2001 - present <br />Project Cost: <br />Ongoing <br />Number /$ Amount of <br />Change Orders: <br />Not Applicable <br />Services Provided: <br />Architectural Design, <br />Landscape Design and Site <br />Furnishings <br />Key Personnel: <br />Tammy Cook, RLA, ASLA <br />Bruce Ora, RLA <br />Carrie Steinbaum, ASLA <br />Calvin.
