The 'Art Deco' <br />District as it is better known has been recognized as one of the most popular <br />tourist attractions in South Florida and one of the most successful revitalization <br />projects in the world. EDAW is contracted with the planning phase all the <br />way through construction including bidding and award and construction <br />administration services. <br />The streetscape improvements were based on a series of recommendations <br />that came out of several resident initiated community design "charrettes' <br />and City sponsored workshops. The following is a representative sample of <br />recommendations: <br />• Improve the way Flamingo Park relates to the neighborhood. <br />• Improve the shade tree canopy throughout the neighborhood. <br />• Slow down vehicular traffic on neighborhood streets. <br />• Introduce street corner bump -outs to facilitate a shorter pedestrian <br />crossing of traffic lanes. <br />• Improve the neighborhood connection to the Atlantic Ocean and Biscayne <br />Bay. <br />• Create a pedestrian Safe -way from the Elementary School to the Park. <br />• Introduce neighborhood entrance and pathfinder wayfinding and signage. <br />• Provide pedestrian scale street lighting throughout neighborhood. <br />EDAW INC DESIGN, PLANNING AND ENVIRONMENTS WORLDWIDE <br />
