<br />AECOM <br /> <br />Design + Planning <br />Parks and Public Space Planning and Design <br /> <br />Studio: West Palm Beach <br /> <br />Completed: 2011 <br /> <br />Delray Beach, FL, USA <br />Client: City of Delray Beach <br /> <br />Old School Square Cultural Arts Center <br /> <br />These services were provided by AECOM <br />professionals during their employment with <br />Glatting Jackson Kercher Anglin, Inc. <br /> <br />The Old School Square Culture and Arts Center <br />is in the heart of Downtown Delray Beach. The <br />facility is based around the original one- <br />building school house built in 1913, and High <br />School and Gymnasium constructed in 1925, <br />which have been converted into community <br />meeting and classroom spaces, and theatre <br />providing a venue for theatrical, music and <br />other performances. A new parking garage <br />allows the site to be designed as an urban <br />plaza and park for hosting the numerous <br />concerts, festivals, and art shows that <br />currently occur on the site. <br /> <br />The Master Plan accommodates large groups <br />and small gatherings for daytime and evening <br />events, with fixed and moveable furniture, and <br />space for signature art. For events with <br />admission fees the park is planned for a <br />temporary fence to control access, while <br />accommodating service into and pedestrian <br />traffic around the facility. <br /> <br />The first phase of construction is complete, <br />with furniture and art installed in June 2010. <br />Future phases include an array of more <br />elaborate features, including: a large multi- <br />media display panel and shade structure in <br />front of the garage for movies and exhibits; <br />interactive art; and fountains. Adjacent <br />commercial properties may eventually be <br />redeveloped to provide front door access into <br />the park, making this one of the most urban <br />parks in the area. <br /> <br />Fee: $800,000 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />30 <br /> <br />City of Sunny Isles Beach I Design & Permitting Services of the Intracoastal Parks RFQ No. 12-04-04 <br /> <br />A..-coM <br />
