Re: St. Petersburg Pier Approach

Dear Mr. Gibson,

The St Petersburg waterfront is an iconic, diverse and well-loved place, uniting the City with Tampa Bay. Forged over the years by a community that cares deeply about its downtown waterfront, it’s a critical part of the city’s identity We love this community and are delighted to present our Pier Approach qualifications. Creating or enhancing places people care deeply about gives our profession meaning. This is a unique opportunity to improve Straub Park’s waterfront edges, link Pier Park to downtown, create a unified engaging waterfront and attract both locals and tourists.

W Architecture and Landscape Architecture is a leader in waterfront design, focusing on projects which unite cities, nature and people in new ways. In our over 50 waterfront projects we have won multiple awards for our work which seeks to make the most of the essential elements of each place. To ensure each place grows from its culture and environment, collaboration is required with people who have a deep working understanding of the area. This collaborative spirit is illustrated in our team make-up, combining the best of national and regional St. Petersburg based design talent. With Wannemacher Jensen, Kimley Horn, and the rest of our excellent team, we commit to your vision, budget and schedule, to make the most of your extraordinary centerpiece.

The spirit of the waterfront is one of inclusion, and we are committed to honoring this idea in the design process as well as in the final form. We will build upon both the Waterfront Master Plan and the Pier Park Plan and will empower the broadest constituency to be clients and supporters for this project. We will work with our colleagues and friends designing Pier Park to make a seamless, vital, and unified waterfront for the people of St Pete. While the overall direction will be unified we also believe a successful park system requires a diversity of experiences. These unique experiences will promote exploration and return visits. Our team will add collaborative value, diversity, and bring additional attention to St. Petersburg.

We are ready to bring our talent, energy and commitment to meet your challenge. Together let’s build on your past achievements and create a unified downtown St Pete waterfront for the next generations.

Sincerely,

Barbara Wilks, FAIA, FASLA Jason Jensen LEED AP, AIAPrincipal [email protected] [email protected]

This proposal will be valid for 90 (ninety) days.

SUBCONSULTANT RESPONSIBILITY Team Experience

Design is by nature a collaborative process. Urban projects, especially waterfronts are especially complex and require collaboration to succeed. We have assembled an excellent team combining local and national expertise to create vital and unique solutions to transform the Pier Approach and Straub Park Edges. Each firm brings unique knowledge to the team and has a special role. Wannemacher Jensen Architects, Kimley Horn, and VoltAir - have all worked with the City of St Petersburg. Our team understands how to combine local knowledge and expertise with national design excellence. Gardiner & Theobald, with offices in NYC and Miami, and Arup have worked with us before on some of the most important redevelopment projects in North America. W ARCHITECTURE & LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE NEW YORK, NYLEAD DESIGNER

W Architecture & Landscape Architecture is a leader in waterfront design looking to the special qualities of each place to make vital experiences that unite nature and the city. With award-winning work in 9 states and 10 countries, we bring people into new experiences with the water while linking the natural to the city and cultural life. Our West Harlem Piers Park project has won multiple national awards, as well as the prestigious MASterworks award for Neighborhood catalyst, which it shared with the High Line. Our Tide Point project in Baltimore has also won multiple national awards, including an Excellence on the Waterfront for the Waterfront Center. Other award-winning parks have attracted new residents and visitors to formerly remote places like the Edge in NYC or St. Patrick’s Island in Calgary.

Targeted Urban and Waterfront Expertise: W is a leader in waterfront design with built works in New York City, Baltimore, Rhode Island, Ohio and Canada. Few firms have as much hands on, detailed design experience where design inspiration has grown directly out of the ideas and concerns of the local community. From plazas, to parks, to piers and wetlands, historic ships and industrial sites, W has woven new places from existing fragments, forging new pathways for people to explore. These projects have also revitalized districts ranging from national landmark districts to transformations of former industrial sites to vital places attracting community.

Implementation-Driven Design Process: Our planning promotes actions which catalyze change. Park designs must build on what exists and the complex reality of the various forces at work on a place. This project together

with Pier Park must leverage existing local character while promoting increased interaction and use, building momentum for the future. They must be designed with an understanding of the regulations governing waterfront structures, so that approval times will not delay project completion. They must keep budget in mind while finding forms that are sustainable and easy to maintain.

Barbara is also a friends and colleagues with the Pier Park team who are situated in New York City.

Our projects create value. Our park in Calgary is the centerpiece of a redevelopment strategy which has already attracted over one billion dollars (CAD) in private investment. Our public spaces at the Edge and West Harlem in NYC have created new centers of business activity and leisure. Real estate values around the Edge have increased by an average of 175% since 2008 while Columbia University and several new businesses have opened adjacent to West Harlem Piers Park. Tide Point is now the corporate headquarters for Under Armor, as they purchased it after opening shop there as a new firm.

AT W, it is our goal to provide services which are timely, thoughtful, and efficient. We provide a high quality service to design a place that becomes an integral part of the community. We work hard with the client and stakeholders to find a holistic concept which will meet needs, then work hard to maintain and improve the concept all the way through construction and maintenance. Our growing list of design awards attest to our success in this endeavor.

MASTER CONSULTING ENGINEER - TAMPA, FLSTRUCTURAL ENGINEER FOR BUILDINGS

In 1999, two engineers set out to develop a structural design firm that would demonstrate the ideal of what they could see the industry was needing. Having worked together for many years in a large international firm, Jim Mehltretter and Armando Castellón wanted to create an organization with all the capabilities and resources of a large firm and maintain the agility and unique strengths and advantages of a small, local office. It was about reclaiming their passion for design, dropping the corporate firm mentality and getting back to personal attention and accountability on a project; knowing their clients and better understanding their needs so they could generate designs that were comprehensive, complete, and tailored to the needs and expectations of the building owner.

DEW - RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIOWATER SYSTEMS DESIGN

Kate Cella has been selected to manage the project based on her technical, management, communications and design experience. She has excellent communication and management skills, coupled with technical and design tenacity in public projects of this scale, ensuring that the details are met with conceptual rigor.

Kate will be responsible for leading the coordination effort with Jason, as well as weekly interaction with the Core Design Team. In addition, Kate will be responsible for cost control and schedule adherence.

ALIGNING EXPECTATIONSOur fi rst step in ensuring client satisfaction is to verify client’s goals and expectations and align ourselves with our client’s objectives, which is why we have put together a team that shares values. We begin with verifi cation of the city’s Waterfront Master Plan while absorbing your goals to fi nd an alignment of purpose. With this, we can strive to meet and exceed your objectives. The multitude of city, state and community stakeholders at St Petersburg may have subtly varying agendas, which Barbara, Jason, and Kate will manage. During the design process, Barbara Wilks will be intimately involved with the creation of a scheme that meets needs and desires while interpreting them in a way that expands the original vision. This will require active participation from the city and the Core Design Team.

PROJECT APPROACH Project Design Approach

The Pier Approach is a critical link in the development of the St Petersburg waterfront. A successful design will connect the Pier to the downtown core seamlessly. At the same time it should also provide unique, intimate experiences for patrons to discover and explore. We applaud the cities decision to create some diversity within the waterfront parks by making this a separate project from the pier itself. The Pier Approach, in concert with the Pier Park, will become an integrated destination for visitors and residents to enjoy—a new “front yard” for St Pete. It will also bring greater vitality to the water’s edge,--a wonderful asset which is currently underutilized,-- better integrating the existing cultural institutions in the life of the park, and rebalancing and integrating pedestrian and vehicular traffi c. Combined with Pier Park, this project is the capstone and logical extension of the park development started in the early 1900’s.

A Maturing Vision of the WaterfrontSince Straub fi rst set aside land on the waterfront for the public, St Petersburg has been in the forefront of city waterfront design. With its downtown, public emerald edge, and the pier, it has set aside more space for the public than many much larger towns and this foresight has paid off by attracting tourists to St Pete and its waterfront. Despite this head start, as more and more cities are catching up with St Pete in terms of creating accessible public waterfronts, improvements to the public realm are required as outlined in the recently released Waterfront Master Plan. We will work with the community to make sure the parts work together giving greater emphasis to the pedestrian and the unique experience of the waterfront, thereby improving the utility and identity of the place.

Our past projects and their open spaces have created value for our clients, and contributed to sustainable and vital communities. In West Harlem and Plaza 33, NY; Williamsburg, Brooklyn; Baltimore Md and Calgary Alberta we were able to play an active role in positive neighborhood revitalization. Our St Patrick’s Island Park is the centerpiece of a redevelopment strategy which is attracting hundreds of millions of dollars in private investment. Our public spaces at the Edge and West Harlem have created new centers of business activity and leisure. Real estate values around the Edge has increased 175% since 2008 while Columbia University and others have been attracted to West Harlem.

Conceptual Integration of the Pier Park and the Pier Approach ProjectIntegration with the Pier Park is critical to the success of this project. This project must integrate the Waterfront Master Plan with Pier Park to create a seamless experience, --a series of integrated places which invite the visitor to move between the parts and enjoy each. At present, the two plans have some differences that will need to be resolved in the master plan verifi cation phase of our work. This phase will conceptually locate all program elements and create circulation and utility systems that unite the district. We are especially suited to work with the Pier Park team to make that happen, as we are friends and colleagues, and can meet with Ken and Rob easily in NYC to go over every detail of their intention to fi nd the best way for integration.

Balancing pedestrian, vehicular and bicycle traffi cMany of the concerns with the Pier Approach area today center on the distribution of land between pedestrians and vehicles. While Beach Drive fosters pedestrian promenading, Bay Shore Drive and Second Avenue are less than pedestrian friendly. W Architecture has abundant experience in integrating vehicles and pedestrians at the waterfront. At Tide Point, we eliminated waterfront vehicular access in favor of a wide pedestrian promenade which has become a popular gathering place. At West Harlem Piers Park, we signifi cantly narrowed the adjacent roadway to create a bike path and larger park space. At Plaza 33, we temporarily closed 33rd St adjacent to Penn Station in NYC to alleviate congestion at this most busy crossroads, and provide a glimpse of what the future redevelopment could make possible in the way of a place for gathering and enjoyment. At the Edge we closed two city streets as they dead ended into the waterfront, and replaced them with pedestrian access and gathering space. We are also currently redesigning the streetscapes of downtown Far Rockaway, a beach community in Queens to allow for more a enjoyable pedestrian experience at this busy multimodal community. We will work to integrate all modes of travel into enjoyable park experiences.

Ability to Create Synergy between the Parts:

We will work with the city, the community, and the Pier Park designers to design, integrate and implement the various places called for in the Waterfront Master Plan, and craft them into memorable experiences. The Pier Park should work with the Basins, Upland and Straub Park to create a network at the human scale that encourages wandering and engagement. Places that naturally encourage people to move around fulfi ll our natural tendency to survey our territory, explore, and engage one another. Multiple pathways and loops of various scales encourage fl ow. Creating a sequence that unites the Pier with the larger civic spaces of the St Petersburg waterfront help create a sustainable whole. Having multiple teams designing this district gives the City more “eyes on the project”, resulting in a richer yet still integrated whole. Clear view corridors, intermediate arrival points and activities, and stronger identities for each place will lead pedestrians from one area to the next.

Our design will create synergistic adjacencies, allowing each place to have a special role, yet making the total equal to more than the sum of the parts. Visitors and resident needs will be accommodated through a careful sorting of spatial scales and hierarchies. Keeping smaller, intimate areas from being overrun by tourists can be prevented by allowing for multiple pathways - major and minor - through and around areas to create dispersal and concentration, intimacy and gathering. There are not many places as busy as the area around Penn Station, yet our plan for the temporary plaza there allowed for through circulation of the busy travelers and commuters, while allowing people to get “out of the fl ow” and enjoy the place. West Harlem Piers Park links the community through a series of gateway entry points at street ends, overlapping with gathering places including the Cove plaza, the Woodland steps, and others. These and other designs work both as a whole, and within each part, so that the result is unifi ed yet with diverse areas for all to enjoy.

A Rediscovery of the Waterfront at St Patrick’s Island | Calgary, Alberta


Choreographing the sequence of events for the visitor along this linear trajectory involves creating a set of organized and unprogrammed activities, such as gathering with friends, eating a sandwich, attending an event, and learning about nature and your community. New uses and forms which promote pedestrian gathering both on a daily basis and for special events are required. These can be organized into a series of places which invite stopping as well as places for movement, shady and sunny places, viewpoints and landmarks, gardens and plazas, etc. A well-planned sequence of events and experiences allows for a variety of user types. We will work with the community to create programs that will be supported and maintained. Some of the places will be multi-use and fl exible, while others are single use and particular. Single use spaces must look engaging when empty or in use, as do seating areas or gardens. Multi-use areas are generally preferred as they accommodate a variety of uses and remain loved over the long term.

A Unique St. Petersburg WaterfrontThe waterfront of St Pete should refl ect the character of the community, respecting its past and looking forward to the future. W’s parks often respond to the inherent characteristics of a place, both cultural and natural—forces that shape the site in which they are situated. The braided stream of St. Patrick’s Island becomes a base for circulation pathways, the former cove at West Harlem Piers Park becomes the inspiration for the park forms, the ebb and fl ow of the Tidewater at Tide Point is refl ected in the dynamic paving pattern,-- all are derived from the specifi c qualities of the place. For the Pier Approach, we will investigate the possibilities for a uniquely St Pete design approach that allows for differences, yet creates a larger whole—an attitude towards art, the water, and experience. Precedent and character studies will be a part of the

community outreach. Maintenance concerns will also be integral to the design character, as the park space should be easy to maintain and sustain.

Uniting The Parts Into A Seamless WholeFrom our understanding at the present time, The Waterfront Master Plan and the Pier Park both provide for a network of circulation roughly in three parallel pedestrian pathways—one at each of the two shores, at the north and south basins, and the third major axial pathway aligning with the pier. How these three pathways work in the two plans differs in detail and hierarchy, as does the particular location of some of the uses outlined in the RFP. These differences will have to be worked out between the Approach and Pier Park teams, the client and the community. Some of these issues are touched on below, based on our understanding to date.

Grand Entry SquareThe Entry Plaza is the Gateway to the Pier District. Sitting in the zone of Straub Park, between Beach Drive and the new Bay Shore Promenade, it is the vehicular entrance to the Pier as well as an urban pedestrian gateway. It is at the scale of the city, a grand gathering space linking the pier to the city and Beach Drive. It should grab your attention and attract focus to this important place.

In order to create the right impact, at the beginning of the pier axis, the design of this space will need to negotiate and make sense with the Pier Park as it shifts the axis and organization of the existing pier. At this point we have included DEW as a part of our team. They are experts in creating water experiences, an important component of this place. Lighting will also be critical and we have included Leni Schwendinger for key design input here. The view



corridor both out to the Bay and back to the City will need careful consideration. The coordination of this sequence of plazas and connectors will need careful and thoughtful collaboration between the Pier Park team and the Approach team to create a meaningful series of events along this critical pedestrian spine. The Fine Arts museum is to the north of the space and a concern is the proposed expansion of 2nd Ave north into property that they own where they are planning an expansion. We believe that our team can help address this concern and enhance the plan with efforts on the Fine Arts Museum property. We will work to make this Grand Entry Square a fi tting arrival and gathering point.

Central Pedestrian Art PromenadeThis multimodal place will replace the existing Second Ave as it reaches towards the Pier. Again the geometry of this section will need to be carefully coordinated with the Pier Park to ensure appropriate views, and pedestrian and vehicular connections are maintained. Shade is critical for this linear space. Parking and pier access need to be integrated into the whole—emphasizing pedestrian access to the basin edges. The promenade will be effective in daytime and in nighttime, and will be a showplace for art. Art is a wonderful opportunity to engage visitors in new ways and for artists to reach diverse audiences. Artwork, especially site specifi c artwork, can create powerful new experiences. W has worked with many artists in our projects and fi nd that the results are best when the process of selecting the artist(s) starts early. For the Central Pedestrian Art Promenade, and any other art areas, we would recommend that artist start work after schematic design, requiring the selection process to be concurrent with Schematic Design. This gives us time to bring together the Pier Park and Waterfront Master Plans with community input and confi rm the project is on budget before the artist starts. Bringing the artist in at the beginning of Design Development will allow the time for proper integration into

the project experience. We would work through the city’s art selection process to bring these experiences into the project early.

Pedestrian Art BridgeThe Art Bridge is a connector between the Bayshore Promenade, the Fine Arts Museum and the St. Petersburg Museum of History. Wannemacher Jensen is currently working on a master plan with the Fine Arts Museum to assist their connection to this plan. Making a connection across the basin here allows pedestrians to circulate along the edge of the North Yacht Basin, where a possible ferry or taxi dock will be located, as well as a new restaurant. It also creates a direct connection between the two museums, creating synergy. W has worked on the design of many bridges in the past, including several on St Patrick’s Island as well as larger award winning bridges in Dubai and elsewhere. We are eager to make an artful connection here that works in concert with the cultural institutions.

Bayshore Drive PromenadeThe Promenade links Straub Park to the waterfront. The current Bayshore Drive separates the park from the waterfront, and limits pedestrian use of the edge. Redesigning this space to be multimodal and shared will allow for more use of the waterfront. Our West Harlem Piers Park similarly repurposed a vehicular area to one for pedestrians and bicyclists, narrowing traffi c lanes and moving them away from the waterfront. The resulting dynamic linear space provides a variety of activities and spaces for gathering in small or large groups. We have designed similar shared use streets in Toronto, on Villiers Island, and in Far Rockaway at the terminus of the A train as it nears the beach. Making this promenade along the basins a special experience for St. Pete will be our goal


Upland PlazaUpland Plaza is part of the pedestrian connection along the North Yacht Basin, east of the Museum of History. But it is more than just a pedestrian connection—it is wide enough to function as a piazza. This plaza needs to be designed to be multifunctional, allowing for use for public events, as well as public parking and pedestrian movement at other times.

Open Air MarketBetween the Upland Plaza and parking area and the Spa Beach Park, the Waterfront Master Plan shows an open air market structure. This 8000 sf covered space for vendors with electric and water service and enhanced ventilation acts as a link between the two spaces and can work in conjunction with the festivals taking place in the plaza. Currently the Pier Park shows a market structure along the edge of the Central Yacht Basin in conjunction with transient docks. This is another area of coordination that will need to be worked out, taking into consideration overall site relationships and synergies, as well as optimal locations for water borne uses. Our team understands that this structure still needs to be programmed, that it should be multipurpose and that this structure must integrate into the park. Some in the community are concerned about any vertical structure in the park. We have intimate understanding of the different viewpoints and will work to address those concerns.

South Restaurant Space and Vinoy Basin RestaurantThese two restaurants will be an integral part of the park design. They will be properly connected to pedestrian, vehicular and waterborne systems of arrival and departure. We will also ensure that utility infrastructure is designed both for today and any future changes. Wannemacher

Jensen has completed numerous restaurants including Cassis on Beach Drive. Lisa Wannemacher is also a restaurant owner which gives her essential perspective on the economics and infrastructure needed for a successful venue. Our team has also included a restaurant consultant SSA who has national destination restaurant experience but is a local consultant. Together Lisa and SSA will guide the planning and coordination. We understand that these buildings will be planned into the fabric of the park, and architectural services for the shell may be added as a part of our scope of services. This includes working closely with the Museum of History to coordinate placement of the restaurant and to properly integrate it with the museum.

Design Process Leadership and Principal Level CommitmentW Architecture and Landscape Architecture provides a high level of service and design that is only possible with a high level of principal involvement. This begins with principal level commitment to the project, by W Architecture as well as Wannamacher Jensen our local partner. Barbara Wilks, principal and founder of W Architecture and Jason Jensen will be accessible to the City of St Petersburg and available and involved in community and project decision making to ensure that project goals are met or exceeded. Barbara has over 40 years experience, has been consistently commended for excellence in design and has specialized in waterfront projects. Jason has over 10 years working in the St Pete community. Together, they will ensure that the full resources of the team are available for this project and that it will be one that St Pete can be proud of.



CollaborationThe spirit of the waterfront is one of inclusion and we are committed to honoring this during the design process. Collaboration and communication is critical to the success of the project and the project team is organized to make it both clear and easy. At a conceptual level, collaboration is required at the principal level with all the parties to ensure that the client goals are met. This is one of the key responsibilities of the Principal. And Barbara likes to not just meet, but exceed expectations. She will be involved with high level communication with the client, the Pier Park team, the stakeholders and the community.

With the Pier Park TeamIntegration with Pier Park is critical to the success of this project. First the master plan has to be verifi ed and made into an integrated plan so each project can proceed with confi dence. Second, the development of the details and character of the individual places—the pathways, plazas, lighting, materiality, and so many other issues need to be coordinated with this project. As friends and colleagues of both Ken and Rob, Barbara anticipates holding regular “design review” meetings with the Pier Park team directly at regular intervals in NYC. This will be an opportunity to pinpoint issues and discuss options for resolution early on. All meeting decisions will be recorded and transmitted to the entire team so that everyone knows what issues may have arisen and who is responsible for subsequent action.

Ability to Develop Consensus around Key Values: The people of St Pete have already put a lot of time into this project. Wannemacher Jensen is very familiar with the process to date and the people involved. W Architecture has some knowledge of the various communities that all are involved in the waterfront and the downtown. A process that allows people to see how their values are incorporated

into a design is more likely to result in a design which is supported. A process which brings forth their common values and fi nds forms which grow out of those values allows debate and disappointment to be processed; sorts the realities among the many constituents; builds trust by exploring options that balance competing forces; expresses common values while respecting opinions that are not widely supported or included in the outcome. Our team will use an inclusive process to forge a project from confl icting expectations. Community Open houses, Awareness Walks, Workshops, Focus Groups, are strategies that will build consensus and facilitate decision making. Promoting stakeholder ownership thorough this process will be fundamental to the long term stewardship of this extraordinary series of open spaces.

With the Stakeholders – Building ConsensusMeeting with the Stakeholders on a regular basis will help the design team understand the Stakeholders intentions, refi ne goals, identify constraints, opportunities and confl icts, build consensus and partnerships. It is recommended that we meet with the stakeholders early, so as to understand concerns and constraints. We also suggest that a working group be formed, including city agencies and selected stakeholders, composed of senior level personnel that can approve project approaches and can muster support in their agencies if need be to help move the process along. Periodic reviews will be held with the in order to keep the design team on schedule, while meeting expectations of the committee. We will also hold public meetings and open houses. A complete stakeholder engagement strategy will be worked out with the client, and is discussed further in this section.


Design Phases and Responsibilities The project will go thru several phases, beginning with a master plan verifi cation. During this time we will be meeting with the client, the community and the Pier Park team to create a single master plan for this area that melds the best of the Waterfront Master Plan with the Pier Park design, setting the relationship between the parts. Following agreement on this phase we will proceed to Schematic design, where the specifi c layouts and relationships within the various areas will be addressed. Design development will set the character of the various areas, again in close coordination with the Pier Park team.

On all the phases to this point, W Architecture and Landscape Architecture will be the lead consultant. As we move into the Construction Document Phase, W will still lead the project and review the drawings for design intent, but the majority of the time commitment will fall to the Architect and Landscape Architect of Record, Wannamacher Jensen and Kimley Horn respectively. These two fi rms will also be the primary work force during the construction administration phase, with support from W, making sure that the design intent is respected at all times.

For the project permitting, Kimley Horn will be responsible for SWFWMD (South West Florida Water Management District) and City of St. Petersburg site permitting. Wannemacher Jensen will be responsible for all vertical structure for the City of St. Petersburg fi re and building permitting. Janicki will be responsible for environmental permitting. Our team has successfully permitted over 250 projects in the city of St. Petersburg including many parks projects for the City as a client such as Roberts Recreation Center and Park, Walter Fuller Park, Wildwood Recreation Center and North Shore Pool Complex.

Project Management Our project manager, Kate Cella, has the experience required with complex projects as well as the organizational and communication skills to effectively manage the consultant team, implement our Quality Control Process, and communicate with the client.

During the design process she will be the key client contact on a daily basis. Frequent communication with the client is essential. While the principal is always available for client communication and meetings, and is charged with making sure that client needs are met, the project manager is the day to day contact who runs the project. The project manager will prepare a schedule for the project including meeting dates. Regular client meetings will be the primary means of communication and collaboration. Client meetings will be organized by issues, and pertinent team members will attend as required. An agenda will be sent to the team prior to the meeting for comment by all and minutes will be issued within three days of the meeting. Our project manager will coordinate with the consultant team to facilitate schedules and goals will be monitored at all times, but especially at the beginning and end of each phase. Those are the times to take stock of the progress and make sure everything is on track. A monthly design report will record project progress and outline goals and how the design meets them. It will also record any changes to the project goals throughout the project. The design report is a companion to the drawing sets, and includes a narrative, appropriate illustrations, as well as budget and schedule information. An ftp site can be set up, if appropriate, to facilitate client and team access to the latest information.



Quality Control Program

Our design and technical approach is based on concern for the needs of the end users, respect for the existing site, and a careful commitment to serving the client. These basic principles are at the heart of all our projects. Accordingly, as the prime consultant on this project, W Architecture assumes the role of Quality Control agent. Quality Control involves three aspects: design, budget and schedule. We have a set of checklists for each phase of the project maintained by the project manager. These checklists include:

• Client goals• Community participation goals• Required Approvals Checklist• Documentation Checklist• LEED Checklist• Project schedule review• Project budget review

These checklists are reviewed and discussed at weekly in-house meetings attended by the team and the principal in charge. It is important that these items work together to meet client expectations. In addition:

• We carefully investigate and document the existing facilities and site conditions.

• We carefully listen to and document the input received from the client and end users alike.

• We listen carefully to and document the goals expressed by the client.

• We carefully analyze all acquired data and organize it for clear presentation.

• We carefully monitor the costs and consequences for decisions and choices and notify the client of any concerns.

• We base all material and system selections on

appropriateness, cost, and durability and sustainability.• We have all documents thoroughly reviewed by senior staff

in-house before submission at every phase.• We maintain the project schedule and avoid adverse impact

on dependent contracts.• We notify the client promptly of any anticipated problems and

recommended solutions.

We all know that these things are easy to say and hard to do. At W, we have built our process around these goals and strive to provide a good quality project on budget and schedule.

Cost ControlCost control is an important and integral part of the building process. Serious budget overruns in complex building projects can be avoided if:

• The real complexities of the project are fully realized.• The project’s scope and quality parameters are kept on-

target through constant correcting and updating during the schematic design, development, and construction documentation stages.

Kate will work with Gardiner Theobald to make sure that all the information they need for cost estimating at each phase is provided. First, they will prepare a construction budget working with the team to understand the total costs included in the project budget of $20 million. Then they will test the master plan verifi cation phase drawings for concurrence with the budget including proposed program areas, the performance, quality, and operation criteria. The transition from program into a schematic design is the most crucial phase in the project’s developments. This is where the relationship between program and cost is fi rst established. Good communication between cost consultant


and the team and client is necessary in the early stages to develop scopes and quality levels with the agreed budget allocations. This process requires plenty of give-and-take among all core team members to achieve a good project balance. These estimates are based on carefully researched historical and current regional data.

The resultant schematic cost plan is the fi rst crucial step of a design against program budget. Obviously, it is sometimes painful for clients to face budget realities early in a project, but if they are participants in the design process they are better able to make choices. We take client budgets very seriously, and often fi nd innovative design solutions to overcome budget constraints. In fact, we look to all a project’s infl uences – economic, technical, and schedule related – as both constraints and opportunities make a richer, more satisfying solution. The process of cost monitoring and reporting must extend throughout all subsequent design stages to ensure the successful delivery of the project on budget. It is imperative that the cost plan be consulted during the entire process, as details, material selections, and equipment are fi nalized.

Schedule ControlKeeping a project on schedule requires that the team work effi ciently towards project goals. It also requires that the schedule is properly prepared in the beginning with input from consultants and the client. While design is not always a linear process, getting information early in the project is the best way to stay on schedule.

With this in mind, our schedule usually allows for ample time at the beginning of a project to gather and analyze information and to meet with community stakeholders

so that goals are clear and confl icts are identifi ed and conceptually resolved. We also build in time for client reviews and approvals, as well as time for cost estimating, document coordination and fi nally quality control. All steps must be accounted for in the schedule.

If, for some reason, the schedule cannot be met, the reasons for this are discussed with the client and either the tasks are adjusted or the schedule is changed. If the schedule is based upon critical dates linked to approvals, funding or necessary construction starts, these are factored into the schedule from the beginning, and critical check points are monitored carefully to insure that scheduled dates are met.

Schedules are reviewed and updated by the project manager weekly. She is in contact with all team members to make sure they are on target and have all the information they need.

Sustainable, Value-Driven Design Approach: We are practiced in the art of “elegant frugality” required to achieve a sustainable cost model in this new economy. The artful integration of history, cultural and natural systems is our passion, and the resultant blend of technical needs with human desires and natural processes is usually also cost effective. We will work closely with the City of St Petersburg and the community to utilize to greatest advantage the site’s compelling location and existing features while integrating new experiences which engage visitors in new ways. Technology Aided Design and ManagementThree-D modeling techniques in addition to photoshop and illustrator rendering will be employed to facilitate design



decision making by the City, stakeholders, and the public. Technical drawings will be in AutoCadd with fi nal drawings compatible with AutoCadd Civil 3D 2015. Kimley-Horn has the ability to work with many versions of Civil 3D up to and including AutoCAD Civil 3D 2015. Microsoft project will guide project management, scheduling and cost control. A well organized ftp site will facilitate team communication with client and consultant folders. Go to meeting or skype will facilitate long distance communication and public feedback will be aided by updates to a provided website, if desired. Furthermore, Kimley-Horn stays at the forefront of state-of-the-art engineering and surveying technology.

Kimley-Horn offi ces are connected nationwide via computer network and public/private ftp sites allowing access to AutoCAD and numerous other software packages. Kimley-Horn has approximately 840 CADD users within the fi rm, with approximately 160 of them being Designers and CADD Operators and 680 Young Engineers who also work with CADD software on a daily basis. We have eight dedicated CADD technicians in our Tampa offi ce alone, and most of our senior staff are CADD fl uent.

Kimley-Horn is confi dent that our CADD capabilities and experience will fulfi ll the City’s requirements.

Since its founding in 1999, W Architecture has promoted and encouraged the use of sustainable practices and principles in its projects. W’s approach to sustainability is holistic and promotes the continuation of strategies developed in planning and design stages throughout the life of a project, including sustainable maintenance regimes to effi ciently integrate environmental concerns in the decision making process.

The design process must be integrated in itself, and include all the professionals as well as public and private organizations. Sustainability begins with the design of larger environmental systems like wind and solar harvesting, water reuse, and consideration of waste reducing methods. A sustainable design must integrate human and natural systems alike, so that all function coherently, effi ciently and productively to improve the environment for future generations.


PROJECT APPROACHSustainablity


Our projects also reycle materials like the cladding for the building at St. Patricks Island. taken from a demolished pedestrian bridge. Or the cobblestones at West Harlem Piers Park discovered under some parking removed from the parking lot. We also work to reintegrate storm water into the ground via bioswales to improve water quality and reduce runoff.

In line with our sustainable approach, W’s design process also considers the experience from the perspective of someone walking or riding a bike. The pedestrian experience is addressed through passive recreation and the sustainable approach can be better understood by the user.

Community EngagementFor a project to succeed, the community must not only support it, it must feel some ownership of it. The design team must establish a dialogue with the community and, more importantly, gain the community’s trust. Key project team members Jason Jensen, Lisa Wannemacher, and Barbara Wilks will be active participants in all community meetings – from stakeholder interviews to larger public forums. They will identify and discuss key community concerns, as well as excite the imagination. Jason and Lisa have served this role for the city previously building many personal relationships. Barbara has also built outspoken supporters during the previous competition. These local roots will provide a strong foundation for this outreach process.

To make informed choices that go beyond preconceptions, the community must clearly understand alternatives and their consequences. Community desires are often confl icting, and it is important to point out these confl icts early, so that there is acknowledgment of a need for resolution. The design team must listen well, but also provide leadership in fi nding creative solutions. Understanding the opportunities and the confl icts in these areas early on will be essential.

The benefi t of this team’s extensive pier/ approach history is that we know the intricacies, community group, and perspectives invested in this project. We have proven that we can listen, respond, and work collaboratively. We have helped these groups see mutually benefi cial opportunities and work together. Transparency and trust is earned. Various groups may disagree on many things but we hope one thing they agree on is that they can trust our team. Our team is best suited to successfully deliver this project, collaborate with the other consultants and to build invested community support.

Enabling FeedbackThis project has had an enormous amount of public input to date that we have reviewed and understand in depth. This input has culminated in two different master plans which need additional outreach to be reconciled and confi rmed. To aid communities in understanding these various choices and to participate in their resolution, many tools are needed. Different people respond to different media and viewpoints. Computer-generated perspective renderings, photo collages, massing models, and plans and sections will help the public visualize interrelationships between the parts and the characters of the environment at the pedestrian level. Before and after views will be utilized where appropriate. We will also prepare a visual preference survey for key elements of the plan – the edge of the water, the central art promenade, the grand entry square, etc. Getting detailed feedback on specifi c spaces helps determine early on what kind of character the community wants for these spaces. People also feel more comfortable expressing their opinion in different ways. To accommodate this, we integrate multiple vehicles for community response. Speaking up at community forums works well for some people. Private discussions work better for others. Visual communication is best for others still. We also provide a vehicle for written response through distribution of sticky notes to allow attendees to leave us notes on any of the drawings presented.

Community participation works best if there is consistent turnout with well-structured meeting times. We will work with the client to create a meeting schedule and determine the best dates and times, such as evenings or Saturdays.An additional option is to post the presentation materials on a website under a special project address, often a good way to communicate with a broad group.

PROJECT APPROACH


The Community Engagement processDuring the community engagement process we will interview individual stakeholders or groups of stakeholder (i.e. retail owners along Beach Drive, DNA, and Downtown Waterfront Parks Foundation). We will also structure a series of open public meetings. The fi rst public meeting will typically be held after most of the stakeholder interviews. A typical public meeting outline follows. The fi nal form of the community meetings will be determined with the client. Workshop #1 – Master Plan Verifi cation and Reconciliation The Waterfront Master Plan and Pier Park have subtly differing perspectives on some of the program and circulation issues. Melding the plans and verifying the program is the fi rst step in the project design. Constraints and opportunities will be presented in a power point presentation format, with boards of key issues displayed around the room. This allows the community to see the information clearly, and study it later in greater depth. We will also show examples of other precedents worldwide in photos and drawings for the major conceptual components of the project to illustrate the wide variety of possibilities and approaches for the space. Sticky notes will be provided during the meeting for community members to write comments on and stick directly on the drawings. Red and green dots will serve as voting methods on various characters of park spaces and uses, to help us understand the character preferences of the community.After the presentation, participants will also have the opportunity to comment in a public forum. Each table will summarize its comments, fi ndings and ideas and will report back on them. These will be recorded by the design team. Results of the visual preference survey will be digitally photographed as a record.

Workshop #2 – Alternative ConceptsThe second community meeting is the presentation of alternative concepts to meet the desired goals. The alternatives may use radically different approaches, but will illustrate the various trade-offs to accomplish each. The format will be similar to the fi rst pin-up. Interaction will be encouraged. Comments again will be recorded, both verbal and written. The goal of this project is to understand the priorities of the community and to leave the meeting feeling that we can design a new hybrid scheme from our discussion of alternatives.

Workshop #3 – Schematic DesignThe third community meeting will review the goals of the design and present the new single scheme in the context of those goals. Design of specifi c elements as well as the overall confi guration (travel modes, uses, landscape and architecture) will be discussed here. Comments again will be recorded.

Workshop #4 – Design DevelopmentThe fi nal presentation to the community will focus on the design of each area of the park in more detail. The community will comment on the proposed character and on how well the design meets the vision. Comments will inform the fi nal development of construction drawings.

Art is a wonderful opportunity to engage visitors in new ways and for artists to reach diverse audiences. Artwork, especially site specifi c artwork, can create powerful new experiences. Wannemacher Jensen has completed many such public art installations most recently for Lights on Tampa and a permanent installation for Tampa’s Riverwalk. W has also worked with many artists and fi nds that the results are best when the process of selecting the artist(s) starts early. We would recommend that artist start work

after schematic design, requiring the selection process to be concurrent with Schematic Design. This gives us time to fi rm up the project with community input and confi rm the budget before the artist starts. Bringing the artist in at the beginning of Design Development will allow the time for proper integration into the project and its materiality.

ST. PATRICK’S ISLANDCALGARY, AB


This Park transforms St. Patrick’s Island from an underutilized and degraded resource into a “Living Island”, a new vital center to a thriving mixed-use Rivers District and East Village. Based on a community master plan to create a direct water experience set in a regional attraction, this park acts as a catalyst for change.

A carefully planned mix of activity balances restoration of the natural operations of the island and river with human activity throughout the seasons. Two new water channels bring the river back into the park: a new shallow channel and beach carved from a former lawn, which can transform to a skating area in Calgary’s cold winter, and a new wetland habitat and transect walk. The soil removed from these excavations creates a downtown viewing hill, which can also be used for festivals and movies. Picnic areas, play areas and a multi-use plaza for festivals or markets are carefully set in the existing landscape, preserving the iconic trees. By carving new channels with views to the downtown for human access and restoring forested areas with limited access, the 30-acre Living Island is all about creating lasting and sustainable waterfront experiences in an urban landscape for maximum sustainability, showing how the city and nature can be set cheek by jowl.

A variety of approvals were required for the in-water and land-based changes. The island is in the flood plain and all structures and utilities were designed to mitigate seasonal impact.

PLAZA 33

New York NY

PLAZA 33 - TEMPORARY PLAZA CLOSES STREET

Long talked about as a vital yet underutilized and underdeveloped part of Manhattan, Plaza 33 reinvorgates the area around Penn Station and Madison Square Garden by closing 33rd Street to allow for public activities. The architectural and landscape interventions in the street are temporary, so the design and construction of the plaza employed very innovative techniques to both accommodate thousands of people per day and provide a respite in one of the busiest areas of Manhattan.

“We maximized the use of the existing stair at the south edge of the street as a multi-use feature -- opening it to 7th Avenue and removing the existing planter walls that were a barrier to pedestrian movement and visibility. We extended those stairs upward with a wooden amphitheater to hide the loading area of Madison Square Garden. We are delighted that the feature is already being used well by the public,” says Barbara Wilks, Founder and Principal of W Architecture.

Plaza 33 features benches, planters and the amphitheater seating to attract visitors to enjoy the space as never seen before. Sculptures from world-renown artists Roy Lichtenstein and Keith Haring sit on the painted street where grey and white stripes add a graphic element to the street and sidewalks - unifying the space. Movable seating and umbrellas will provide much needed seating and shade tothe area while a new food hall operated by Vornado plans to offer a new food experience for Plaza 33, Penn Station and MSG visitors.

This project was completed and constructed on an aggressive schedule of three months and will be open to the public for four months.

ST PETERSBURG PIER APPROACH

BLUE PIERST. PETERSBURG, FLORIDA



054ST PETERSBURG PIER APPROACH054WATER WORKS: A RIVERFIRST SIGNATURE PARK

W Architecture was invited to submit a design proposal for the new St. Petersburg Pier competition in St. Pete, Florida. The City of St Petersburg has a proud history of public space development. In the early 20th century, citizens and city leaders led by W. L. Straub engaged in a protracted debate over the future of the young city’s waterfront space. One side advocated for commercial, port and industrial development and the other side for a long-term commitment to parks and public access to the waterfront. The public access and park contingent won the debate when, on Christmas Eve 1909, the city announced the acquisition of the waterfront land that is encompassed by the waterfront park system. This system is one of the largest in the country.

It is in this spirit of civic good that we have approached the new St. Petersburg Blue Pier.

Our design is rooted in joining the ecology, local cultural norms and the history of the pier. Joining them is what makes the design new because most historic urban forms are based on urban geometries while seeing “nature” as something beyond. At Blue Pier we combine the urban with an understanding of the natural forces shaping the waterfront. Integrating the confl uence of these parts is a 21st century idea.

ST. PETERSBURG PIER


THE EDGE PARK WILLIAMSBURGBROOKLYN NY


058ST PETERSBURG PIER APPROACH058WATER WORKS: A RIVERFIRST SIGNATURE PARK

The Williamsburg waterfront has been dominated by industry and its relics for over a century--making it largely off limits to the public. New zoning is changing the public interface with the water’s edge by increasing density and emphasizing waterfront access. The “Edge” park brings people to the river and links the ecosystem with the fabric of the community. As landscape architect for both the new residential towers and the public waterfront park, we have the challenge of ensuring that the towers act not as symbolic fences blocking public access and views of the East River and Manhattan but as gateways to the river with corridors providing visual connection to the iconic skyline.

Our plan unites both sides of the river by using the piers to re-orient views across - especially directed toward the Empire State Building. The design emphasizes the confrontation of forces at the water edge and encourages public use. Here, the city grid and the river’s ecosystem converge, mingle, and clash: the road turns into a pedestrian greenway, a garage is surmounted with a sloping lawn, piers reach gently into

the water from deep within the park and stone riverbank contrasts with concrete bulkhead. This blurring of the boundaries between land and water extends the waterfront benefits inland to the community.

The synthesis and separation of private and public space, and architecture and ecology required a complex series of collaborations with community groups, the developer, the city government, and engineers. This former industrial site is now 50% permeable, planted with many native species and part of the LEED Silver rating for the project. The park was a critical part of the approvals for the project, and maintenance agreements were negotiated with the City Parks Department. The new piers underwent extensive reviews by the Corps of Engineers and the Department of Environmental Protection, and phasing was carefully calibrated to fit the needs of the client and the participating city agencies.

At the Edge, we learned to bring the waterfront edge deeper into the site. Using the geometry of natural forces, one of our new piers pushes inland, up onto the upland interior, bringing the force of the water and the views across the river to Manhattan into the interior upland of the site. This choreographed view of the Empire State Building makes the most of this asset and claims it for our site. We would hope to use similar devices using the geometries of your basin system and new pier park to engage the views to the downtown as well as out to the bay.

The detailing of the natural geometries created a number of “incidental” play opportunities for children. As they play on the undulating edges, they jump and climb as well as absorb the movements of the water system. We would also bring this aspect to St Pete, integrating children informally in many areas.

We have also incorporated ferry service to this site, allowing people to access it by boat. This service has exceeded expectations and directly connects people with the water experience. A water borne entrance to St Pete’s is also desired.


TIDE POINT MASTER PLANAND WATERFRONT PARK

Baltimore MD


Credited with turning a 15 acre derelict old industrial site into the epicenter of Baltimore’s Digital Harbor, this project is about transformation. Tide Point was the site of one of Procter & Gamble’s main soap producing plants. Now the renovated buildings house high tech companies and institutions. Once, its boardwalk was off-limits to the public--- now the site opens to the water and views beyond. Our role in the project included master planning and coordinating public easement through the site, designing new construction for site amenities, and landscape architecture.

The landscape of the site creates an environment that draws neighborhood residents to the waterfront and also serves the needs of the office campus and tourist community—creating flexible event spaces as well as places to meet, eat and rest.

In the summer, the fog machine works to cool pedestrians, and hammocks and Adirondack chairs dot the promenade and waterfront plaza.

The site plan provides clear vehicular and pedestrian pathways with easements to Baltimore City for the public access to the waterfront. To meet the needs of the historic certification, the campus design merges the tidewater with industrial. Site furniture is created from concrete and industrial remnants. Many industrial site features are integrated into the overall design. The project opened in 2004 and has received numerous awards and has been featured in many publications. It is certified historic by the Department of the Interior.

WEST HARLEM MASTER PLAN AND WATERFRONT PARK

New York NY


FROM PARKING LOT TO PARK

The West Harlem Piers Park is a dramatic transformation of space that had been lost to the community for many years. Our design leadership over a nine year period terminated a 30 year struggle by the community to regain their waterfront and renew their connection to the river. A narrow 69,000 sf parking lot has been expanded through creative planning into a 105,526 sf park that re-imagines the threshold between the city and the Hudson in a sustainable and meaningful way. The site, no wider than a tennis court between 129th and 133rd Streets along the Hudson River, had been cut off from the neighborhood by the adjacent traffic and highway above. This point of access to the river, historically a natural cove between adjacent bluffs, and more recently an industrial port, had become a paved and fenced parking lot. The project intent was to create a gathering place on the Hudson to reconnect the residents to the water and catalyze change in

the area. Working closely with a strong group of community activists, our design team held a series of public meetings that resulted in a master plan for the adjacent 40 block area. The first phase of the plan was the creation of West Harlem Piers Park which included transforming the adjacent road to promote pedestrian access, new community piers, and the total re-envisioning of the parking lot.

The park involved phased construction, to narrow the existing adjacent highway without disrupting traffic flow. Piers and roadway were the first phase, while upland improvements completed the park as phase two. Approvals were required from the City Parks, from the State Department of the Environment, and from the Army Corps of Engineers. Mitigation for the piers involved the installation of reef balls on the floor of the river to provide for fish habitat.

The chief issue here was how to create a gathering place on a very constrained site. Working on this long narrow site, we learned to layer uses and expand the space through overlapping programming. The site geometry, based on sand bar formations and the cove history of the site, creates diagonal circulation loops and links which expand the space and provide a multitude of areas for activity. The plan sorts out space for large and small activities and mixes them so they overlap but do not intrude on each other. Similarly, the space for bikes and their speed of travel is carefully separated from the pedestrian experience. We will bring this ability to synthesize the activities along a linear waterfront to create a design that works similarly in integrating people and place. We also incorporated a kayak launch to engage people directly with the water which we would like to similarly investigate here.

MADEIRA BEACH MUNICIPAL COMPLEXMadeira Beach FL


MUNICIPAL WATERFRONT EXPOSURE

This new waterfront Recreation center, City Hall and Fire Station were designed as a community park complex with civic presence. Wannemacher Jensen and Kimley-Horn designed the master plan and then created the construction documents. The project came in on budget and is in construction.

The buildings were designed for maximum efficiency, while taking advantage of the full waterfront exposure for both the new city hall and recreation center. Floor to ceiling windows in the multi-purpose room and fitness center offer waterfront views, as do the city hall offices. A covered boardwalk fronts the city hall entrance, then wraps around to create a deck behind the multi-purpose building.

The special event spaces are all adjacent to the water and are the centerpiece of the new municipal complex. The City of Madeira Beach will use these event spaces for fishing derbies, sports tournaments, holiday festivals, and music festivals. High-profile musical acts such as Culture Club, the Wailers, C+C Music Factory, Saliva, Tonic, and more have already played shows at this waterfront venue.

R.O.C. Park, within the new municipal complex site, consists of new pavement walkways, fountains, and bricks engraved to remember lost loved ones. The reflection area will over look the waters of Boca Ciega Bay and the liveliness of the Recreation Center and patrons enjoying the grounds will create a happy and positive atmosphere.

Wannemacher Jensen Architects and Kimley-Horn designed this new recreational complex that will provide the City of Doral with a 35,000 sf recreational building and an 18 acre community park with sports recreation facilities.

The recreational complex’s multiple components were designed as part of an active and passive strategy to take advantage of one of the site’s most challenging conditions. The park site is divided into two unequal areas by a city

street. A covered pedestrian bridge extends from the recreational building and provides a safe passage above a busy city avenue. The bridge doubles as a city gateway that defines the northern boundary of the city. Community gardens, kids playgrounds, a large splash pad, civic lawn, band shell, shelters, and a nature walk are among the many components that will provide the community with a safe and active environment for all ages. This project will be LEED Certified.

International Design Competition for the renovation or replacement of the existing St. Petersburg Pier, Uplands, and Bridge Approach. Wannemacher Jensen Architects teamed with Harvard Jolly Architecture and Yan Weymouth to form the St Pete Design Group to compete for this project.

Wannemacher Jensen Architects role included the master planning and design of the Approach, Uplands, and Pier Head. Our design strategy for the uplands was to maximize park space and integrate vertical structures seamlessly into the landscape.

Approach program elements included a beachside grill, bicycle and watercraft rental, kayak condos, courtesy and transient docks, shaded promenade, terraced seating, and fishing platforms. Pier Head program elements included an information station, cafe, fishing deck, event lawn, ice cream shop, and a grand hammock connecting two levels of decks.

The St. Pete Design Group’s concept provides the perfect marriage of historic icon and modernized, functional pier; a pure, crystalline pyramid is surrounded by fun, contemporary elements and activities within multi-leveled layers of shade. Varied attractions that will keep residents and tourists coming back include a larger Spa Beach, multiple dining options, a children’s zone and a spectacular waterfall.

ST PETERSBURG’S 2014 PIER COMPETITION


The original program requested the replacement of an existing beach pavilion and renovations to the existing park.While visiting the site, patrons were observed congregating on the existing dock rather than the existing pavilion. They sought the connection to the lake surface and the open views of the lake. The new proposal sought to exploit this connection by splitting the program into two pavilions, one connected to the beach and one connected to the water. The beach pavilion is anchored to the land with concrete and masonry. The water pavilion sheds the walls suspending the roof in the air by columns alone. Its floor is simple joists and decking. The roofs unite the two pavilions in form but differs by its connection to the ground. It appears to be an animated wing extending from the beach over the water.

“We call the design HtO because it proposes a newchemistry between Toronto and the waterfront – afundamental change in the relationship.” - Janet Rosenberg & Studio

HtO Harbourfront Park in Toronto was envisioned as aconnection between downtown and Lake Ontario.Sustainable design principles are incorporated at every level and include waterfront accessibility, enhanced connections to the city, forward-thinking ecological design, integrated public art and lighting design. The park design by Claude Cormier and Janet Rosenberg and Associates is a series of experiences, the roadside connection, floating dunes, and finally, by the harbour, a tiered esplanade reaching into the water. During the day the visitor isdrawn to the water. At night the focus shifts toward the sparkling backdrop of the city. A moonlight effect is layered with color accents to create an after-dark living theatre in the dunes. Underwater illumination gives the appearance of a floating park. ClientThe City of Toronto

Kimley-Horn prepared both a master plan and construction documents for the 1.25-mile-long Bradenton Riverwalk along the Manatee River in Downtown Bradenton. Services included public engagement, programming/master planning, landscape architecture, civil engineering, permitting, public art coordination, and construction phase services. We facilitated an extensive public involvement program to identify opportunities for enhancement to the existing Riverwalk, as well as features that would attract users to the waterfront. We also collaborated with USF Architectural Graduate students as part of a summer design studio. The design team coordinated closely with the City of Bradenton, Southwest Florida Water Management District (SWFWMD), and Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) to obtain over $1 million in grant funds. The grand opening of this $6.2-million project was in October 2012.

THE RIVERWALK AT KENNEDY BOULEVARD PLAZA

The Riverwalk at Kennedy Boulevard Plaza is the final link between the southern and northern leg of the Tampa Riverwalk, connecting almost 2.5 miles of continuous waterfront amenity. At over a third of a mile, the Kennedy Boulevard Plaza, also known as segments 13, 14, and 15 is the longest over-water segment and the crown jewel of the Riverwalk. This segment will connect MacDill Park to Curtis Hixon Waterfront Park under the Historic Kennedy Boulevard Bridge, a major corridor to the urban core of downtown Tampa. The structure will also serve as a pathway to two of Tampa’s downtown gems, the new Tampa Museum of Art and the new Glazer Children’s Museum.

Kimley-Horn, as a subconsultant to another firm, is providing urban design and landscape architecture services for this exciting project. Kimley-Horn approached the design of this segment as a celebration of Kennedy Boulevard Plaza in the form of a “Gateway” to the urban core. Our design focuses on Tampa’s tropical waterfront and heritage, and incorporates cabana-like shading elements and trellis features to offer relief and playful interaction with the Florida sunshine. The form-giving components of the shade features evolved from the curvature edge of the deck platform, creating “hoop” geometry for structural integrity to withstand the regional wind loading in an elegant and simplistic shape. Creative lighting design and complimenting furniture add to the pedestrian experience to give patrons an engaging and unique perspective of Tampa’s waterfront.

Barbara Wilks, principal and founder of W Architecture and Landscape Architecture, is a leader in the field of design. Beginning her career as an architect, with a B Arch from Cornell University, and obtaining prominence in that field for her design skills, she soon realized that her interests in public space linked with the profession of landscape architecture. Earning a MLA at the mid-point in her career from the University of Pennsylvania, she founded her new firm in the fall of 1999 in NYC. As an architect and a landscape architect, Barbara uses her leadership skills to realign nature and the city.

Barbara has won many awards for her work and her work has been published internationally. She was elected to both the College of Fellows of the American Institute of Architects and the American Society of Landscape Architecture for her design accomplishments. Her projects range in scale from urban plans, to public spaces, to infrastructure, to architecture. In addition to opening her projects for participation, during the design process Barbara continues the spirit of inclusion to the surrounding communities and government agencies. The work reflects her leadership skills in the resulting synthesis of these multiple inputs to create a comprehensive connection between the fundamental ecology of the site, its historical and cultural legacy, and its current iteration.

Wilks serves on the Board of Pyramid Hill Sculpture Park, the Planning Committee of the Municipal Art Society, NYC, and is a shareholder of the Cincinnati Art Museum. She is a past board member of the National Association of Olmsted Parks, the Maryland Institute Advisory Board, and the Baltimore Museum of Industry. She is also an Adjunct Professor at City College.

SELECTED EXPERIENCE

St Patrick’s Island, Calgary, Ontario: Principal In Charge for the 30-acre park and buildings. Park elements include a new channel and beach, bikeway, new wetland habitat and boardwalk, interactive water feature, picnic areas, shelters and natural areas to create A Living Island as an Active Park. The Living Island is all about creating a lasting and sustainable set of experiences that will attract a diversity of people, families and groups. This project opened to the public in August of 2015. The construction cost is 13 million.

The Edge Park | Williamsburg: Principal In Charge. For the Edge park, W Architecture created a new public waterfront park from a formerly industrial site. They reconfigured roads along the previously abandoned waterfront in Williamsburg Brooklyn for a new 3 building mixed use development creating more space for pedestrian use. The majority of the park is positioned over a parking structure, acting as an inconspicuous green roof helping to meet the project LEED Silver rating. The park also includes two new piers that connects to the new East River Ferry system. The design required approvals from NYC Parks and Recreation, Army Corps of Engineers, Environmental Protection Agency, Department of Transportation, and Department of City Planning. The construction cost of the project was $18 million. Phase II is under construction and is anticipated to cost $15 million.

West Harlem Piers Park | NYC: Principal In Charge. Working with the NYC Economic Development Corporation and over 40 community groups and neighboring institutions, the goal of the Harlem Piers Masterplan is to create a revitalization for the area where Harlem’s main street reaches the Hudson River. The plan addresses traffic movement, pedestrian safety, economic development to regional bike trails, future ferry stops, and public amenities. With a new self-sustaining waterfront open space as the initial catalyst for future development activity, the plan required extensive community involvement in coordination with city agencies. It has won many awards including 2004 National ASLA Merit Award and 2005 National AIA Honor Award recipient. The project cost was $13 million.

Tide Point Park | Baltimore, MD: Principal In Charge. Former Proctor and Gamble 15 acre waterfront site converted to 400,000 SF office campus, including a public promenade and restaurant site. Plan integrates vehicular and pedestrian pathways to emphasize the prominent waterfront location, and coordinates with adjacent state and federal highways. It also alleviates traffic congestion for surrounding businesses. Various artists’ work is incorporated throughout in coordination with the landscape. Scope of project included critical area and city reviews and coordination of all site consultants, including lighting, civil, signage and artists.

Two points of access were selected to provide bridge access to the island. The structure types was selected based on aesthetic simplicity, functionality, safety, constructability and long term maintenance.

To provide an overall aesthetically pleasing structure and cost effective design, a judicious combination of MSE walls, complimenting landscape and railing features, and a precast pre-stressed concrete girder structure was used for all the three bridges. The project was LAP funded and required design and construction oversight from FDOT. Kimley-Horn’s responsibilities included alternative structure type studies, park planning, landscape architecture, structural engineering, trail amenities, preparation of construction plans, specifications, pre and post load rating analysis, and construction observation. The bridge typical section included four 12’ traffic lanes, a 14’ median, 5.5’ bike lanes, 15’ wide pedestrian sidewalks connecting to scenic over-looks at the bridge approaches, as well as, access to under bridge trail network and park complex.

This fully integrated, culturally significant neighborhood of Jackson Heights Queens is adamant about their public space and are essential to the effacacy of the design of the site as well as the project’s ultimate maintenence and success.

Principal in Charge. The campus is integrated into the existing topography of the land, with the natural verticality of the hill providing both visual accents to the architecture and providing the space for an underground parking garage. The naturally dramatic slope and the vertical accent imparted by the structure of the garage make the College a focal point on campus: improved pedestrian flows into and out of the College and more welcoming immediate environment will help to strengthen the College’s presence on the campus. The Northern Overlook is the kind of transitional open space that bursts to life in nice weather and between classes as people take in the views of the Lake and walk to new locations on campus.

Working with world-renowned professionals spanning the fields of architecture, engineering, landscape architecture, planning, coastal science, marine biology, financial modeling, and more, Rebuild by Design was an experimental method to consider how to utilize federal funding to leverage community by-in and local and regional support to make communities more resilient in the face of future natural disasters. Rebuild was a reaction to Hurricane Sandy, which left much of the coast of the Mid-Atlantic region devestated and vulnerable to further damage. Project management often crossed continental boundaries, time zones, and languages in order to compile a proposal worthy of federal funding and eventually, implementation.

DIVERSITY PLAZAJackson Heights, Queens, NY

Having been completely destroyed by Hurricane Sandy, the Rockaway Boardwalk was in need of complete redesign and reconstruction in order to withstand potential future storms and ensuing property damage. Working together with a large engineering firm, a landscape architecture firm, traffic engineers, and city and community stakeholders, WXY provided renderings, drawings, project management, and design for the full five phases of design and development of the Rockaway Boardwalk, a signature and iconic swath of architecture that lines Queens’ Rockaway beaches. Consistent oversight was necessary, as was the management of intergovernmental relationships between the Parks Department, the Department of Transportation, the Army Corps of Engineers, and the Department of Environmental Protection. The new boardwalk will be constructed of precast concrete pavers on newly raised concrete piers to withstand future storm events.

W Architecture and Landscape ArchitectureSite Master PlanLandscape ArchitectNew York

The Williamsburg waterfront has been dominated by industry and its relics for over a century--making it largely off limits to the public. New zoning is changing the public interface with the water’s edge by increasing density and emphasizing waterfront access. The “Edge” park brings people to the river and links the ecosystem with the fabric of the community.

As landscape architect for both the new residential tower courts and the public waterfront park, we have the challenge of ensuring that the towers act not as barriers blocking public access and views of the East River and Manhattan but as gateways to the river with corridors providing visual connection to the iconic skyline. The park was a critical part of the approvals for the project, including DPR, DCP, ACOE, DOE, etc.

Our plan unites both sides of the river by using the piers to re-orient views across - especially directed toward the Empire State Building. The project is built on a parking garage and incorporates many sustainable site features to contribute to its LEED silver certification. Former streets were pedestrianized to provide gateways.

Credited with turning a 15 acre derelict old industrial site into the epicenter of Baltimore’s Digital Harbor, this project is about transformation. Tide Point was the site of one of Procter & Gamble’s main soap producing plants. Now the renovated buildings house high tech companies and institutions. Once, its boardwalk was off-limits to the public--- now the site opens to the water and views beyond.

The landscape of the site creates an environment that draws neighborhood residents to the waterfront and also serves the needs of the office campus—creating flexible event spaces as well as places to meet, eat and rest. In the summer, the fog machine works to cool pedestrians, and hammocks and Adirondack chairs dot the promenade.

The site plan provides clear vehicular and pedestrian pathways with easements to Baltimore City for the public access to the waterfront. Site furniture is created from concrete and industrial remnants. Many industrial site features are integrated into the overall design.

The Troy Riverfront Park is a 4.4 acre waterfront located in the heart of Troy, New York. This project seeks to open the park to the city, increasing views and access corridors, while promoting a more sustainable and attractive gathering place.

A series of public meetings were held to establish a program and the plans were developed directly from the community members’, stakeholders’, and advisory committee’s feedback. The final master plan provided improved connectivity to the city and historic center, a better home for the farmers market and other events, a new maritime and visitors center, added boating facilities, an improved amphitheater, universal access and a more sustainable ecology.

A first phase program is currently being conceived for the 1.75 million dollars in hand. The goal is to create the most change in this first phase possible to create the new park identity. The park plan will

create a new destination for Troy that will link the community to the water.

Long talked about as a vital yet underutilized and underdeveloped part of Manhattan, Plaza 33 reinvorgates the area around Penn Station and Madison Square Garden by closing 33rd Street to allow for public activities. The architectural and landscape interventions in the street are temporary, so the design and construction of the plaza employed very innovative techniques to both accommodate thousands of people per day and provide a respite in one of the busiest areas of Manhattan.

Plaza 33 features benches, planters and the amphitheater seating to attract visitors to enjoy the space as never seen before. Sculptures from world-renown artists Roy Lichtenstein and Keith Haring sit on the painted street where grey and white stripes add a graphic element to the street and sidewalks - unifying the space. Movable seating and umbrellas will provide much needed seating and shade to the area while a new food hall operated by Vornado plans to offer a new food experience for Plaza 33, Penn Station and MSG visitors.

This project was completed and constructed on an aggressive schedule of three months and will be open to the public for four months.

One hundred and twenty five years ago St. Patrick’s Island and Fort Calgary were the center of the region. But in the intervening years railroads, highways and industry began to take over and isolate the island from its surroundings. Fifty years ago the island was at the edge, or even the back of the downtown. This Park will re-establish St. Patrick’s Island as the new center to a thriving mixed-use Rivers District and East Village, and forge a new ecology for a living island. As urban connections increase and programmatic partnerships grow on the island, it will become more and more the center and connector of diverse communities to the river ecology.

W Architecture & Landscape Architecture is working directly with the Department of Design + Construction in order to meet the general infrastructure and street design requirements as defined by the DDC, and with DOT to meet the requirements of the Permenant Plaza guidelines.

With input from the local community, W Architecture, Diversity Plaza advocates and a variety of local stakeholders have worked in tangent to create a meaningful and lasting open space at the nexus of this culturally significant, diverse, tigh-knit community. New circulation patterns have been devised and will be constructed to ensure safe thoroughfare. The plaza will recieve new paving, plantings, street trees and lighting to be consistent with the desires of the community.















8FIFTH STREET SQUARECalgary, AB


2012-2015 2015

East Village is the place where Calgary was founded, and where today, the future of the city’s downtown is unfolding. Spanning 49 acres between Fort Calgary and the downtown business core, East Village resides at the heart of downtown Calgary and the 5th Street Square is at the center of it all. The square takes its cues from the nearby Bow River and juxtaposes itself against the soon-to-be urban and diverse nature of this neighborhood.

The lifted planes of the triangular planters give the square a sense of intimacy with the bustle of the adjacent streets. With the “lifted” steel planters insulating the center of the square, there is ample open space for year-round programming such as ice skating, a large area for a holiday tree, LED lights in the paving and large custom “sheared” timber benches. Weathering steel walls for the planters gives a nod to the industrial history of this landscape while porous gravel paving in the Elm groves allows over 35% of the site to retain rainfall. The center of the space remains open with a slightly sloping plaza, proving an area to accommodate skating and seating for small performances such as poet readings or quintets in summer.

DEPT OF HOUSING & DEVELOPMENT COOPER ROBERTSON & PARTNER (212) 247-1717

Working with world-renowned professionals spanning the fields of architecture, engineering, landscape architecture, planning, coastal science, marine biology, financial modeling, and more, Rebuild by Design was an experimental method to consider how to utilize federal funding to leverage community by-in and local and regional support to make communities more resilient in the face of future natural disasters. Rebuild was a reaction to Hurricane Sandy, which left much of the coast of the Mid-Atlantic region devestated and vulnerable to further damage. Project management often crossed continental boundaries, time zones, and languages in order to compile a proposal worthy of federal funding and eventually, implementation.

With Cooper Robertson Partners and HR&A, as well as highly respected engineers and scientist, our proposal sought to redefine resiliency for the neighborhoods of Red Hook, Asbury Park, and the Rockaways.

(3) ROLEProject Management, Masterplanning, Complete Architecture Design Services

The original program requested the replacement of an existing beach pavilion and renovations to the existing park.

While visiting the site, patrons were observed congregating on the existing dock rather than the existing pavilion. They sought the connection to the lake surface and the open views of the lake. The new proposal sought to exploit this connection by splitting the program into two pavilions, one connected to the beach and one connected to the water. The beach pavilion is anchored to the land with concrete and masonry. The water pavilion sheds the walls suspending the roof in the air by columns alone. Its floor is simple joists and decking. The roofs unite the two pavilions in form but differs by its connection to the ground. It appears to be an animated wing extending from the beach over the water.

This new waterfront Recreation center, City Hall and Fire Station were designed as a community park complex with civic presence. Wannemacher Jensen and Kimley-Horn designed the master plan and then created the construction documents. The project came in on budget and is in construction.

The buildings were designed for maximum efficiency, while taking advantage of the full waterfront exposure for both the new city hall and recreation center. Floor to ceiling windows in the multi-purpose room and fitness center offer waterfront views, as do the city hall offices. A covered boardwalk fronts the city hall entrance, then wraps around to create a deck behind the multi-purpose building.

The special event spaces are all adjacent to the water and are the centerpiece of the new municipal complex. The City of Madeira Beach will use these event spaces for fishing derbies, sports tournaments, holiday festivals, and music festivals. High-profile musical acts such as Culture Club, the Wailers, C+C Music Factory, Saliva, Tonic, and more have already played shows at this waterfront venue.

R.O.C. Park, within the new municipal complex site, consists of new pavement walkways, fountains, and bricks engraved to remember lost loved ones. The reflection area will overlook the waters of Boca Ciega Bay and the liveliness of the Recreation Center and patrons enjoying the grounds will create a happy and positive atmosphere.

The structure will also serve as a pathway to two of Tampa’s downtown gems, the new Tampa Museum of Art and the new Glazer Children’s Museum.

Kimley-Horn, as a subconsultant to another firm, is providing urban design and landscape architecture services for this exciting project. Kimley-Horn approached the design of this segment as a celebration of Kennedy Boulevard Plaza in the form of a “Gateway” to the urban core. Our design focuses on Tampa’s tropical waterfront and heritage, and incorporates cabana-like shading elements and trellis features to offer relief and playful interaction with the Florida sunshine. The form-giving components of the shade features evolved from the curvature edge of the deck platform, creating “hoop” geometry for structural integrity to withstand the regional wind loading in an elegant and simplistic shape. Creative lighting design and complimenting furniture add to the pedestrian experience to give patrons an engaging and unique perspective of Tampa’s waterfront.

a. PROJECT OWNERMidtown Alliance

b. POINT OF CONTACT NAMEGinny Kennedy



A joint effort between Midtown Alliance and Central Atlanta Progress is focused on creating iconic bridges that span Atlanta’s Downtown Connector across Peachtree Street. Kimley-Horn is currently providing urban, roadway, and structural design services for two Peachtree Street bridges—one at the north end of the City near the Brookwood Interchange and one at the south end at Ralph McGill Boulevard. Improvements will include monumental arches, bike lanes, wider sidewalks, and planted medians.

The partnership needed for this project extends well-beyond internal collaboration between Kimley-Horn disciplines—Midtown Alliance and CAP/ADID are coordinating twin enhancement projects for the north and south ends of the City. The first two bridges will act as bookends to Atlanta between the Brookwood Interchange and Ralph McGill Boulevard and provide the framework for future improvements on additional overpasses along the I-75/I-85 Connector, which is traveled by more than half a million cars a day.

Kimley-Horn coordinated review with GDOT, resulting in an encroachment agreement for the project.

Cattlemen Road Causeway and Regatta Island Bridges:

As part of this 32-acre multi-use recreational park and aquatic sports facility, Kimley-Horn was retained to provide landscape architecture, planning and structural engineering services that included the Cattlemen Road Causeway Bridge, the North and South Regatta Island Bridges, retaining walls and bulkheads. This aquatic park complex is a world class rowing facility, as well as, a multiuse recreational park with high level of public attraction/visibility. For compatibility with the overall design theme of the park complex andhigh volume of pedestrian and vehicular traffic, multimodal traffic safety and circulation was a critical factor in the design. Two points of access were selected to provide bridge access to the island. The structure types was selected based on aesthetic simplicity, functionality, safety, constructability and long term maintenance. To provide an overall aesthetically pleasing structure and cost effective design, a judicious combination of MSE walls, complimenting landscape and railing features, and a precast pre-stressed concrete girder structure was used for all the three bridges. The project was LAP funded and required design and construction oversight from FDOT. Kimley-Horn's responsibilities included alternative structure type studies, park planning, landscape architecture, structural engineering, trail amenities, preparation of construction plans, specifications, pre and post load rating analysis, and construction observation. The bridge typical section included four 12’ traffic lanes,a 14’ median, 5.5’ bike lanes, 15’ wide pedestrian sidewalks connecting to scenic over-looks at the bridge approaches, as well as, access to under bridge trail network and park complex.

COST$$$

HtO Harbourfront Park in Toronto was envisioned as a connection between downtown and Lake Ontario.

Sustainable design principles are incorporated at every level and include waterfront accessibility, enhanced connections to the city, forward-thinking ecological design, integrated public art and lighting design. The park design by Claude Cormier and Janet Rosenberg and Associates is a series of experiences, the roadside connection, floating dunes, and finally, by the harbour, a tiered esplanade reaching into the water. During the day the visitor is drawn to the water. At night the focus shifts toward the sparkling backdrop of the city. A moonlight effect is layered with color accents to create an after-dark living theatre in the dunes. Underwater illumination gives the appearance of a floating park.

Arup LightingIn skilled hands, lighting becomes the fourth dimension of architecture, integrating and enhancing the other design disciplines. Arup Lighting provides a comprehensive architectural lighting design service to clients around the world.

Conceptual design, technical detail. Working closely with architects at all stages of a project, Arup’s lighting specialists provideoriginal and authentic conceptual design. Uniquely well-placed to turn vision into reality, they transform creative concepts into detailed technical specifications.

Arup worked with Louis Vuitton’s architecture atelier to develop a fully integrated lighting concept that forms a seamless part of the customer experience. After a number of highly successful trials, the lighting concept is now being rolled out to Louis Vuitton storesworldwide.

Natural lighting. Great lighting design also relies on using natural light effectively. Arup Lighting is a market leader in daylighting. Its specialists work with architects to understand how natural light is distributed through building geometries, and how it reflects and diverts in different colours and materials. Together, they use this to enhance the building’s performance and aesthetics. As part of an expansion to the High Museum of Art in Atlanta, USA, Arup Lighting designed a series of 1,000 ‘light scoop’ skylights to light display areas naturally and without damaging sensitive artwork. State of the art controls for the galleries and offices adjust to the level of daylight for maximum energy efficiency.

Innovative philosophy. With the potential to change how we perceive architecture and public space, our lighting teams across the globe are experts in designing with smart envelopes, chip-based lighting equipment and media facades. We explore the synthesis of light, media and scientific ambition. Our current project base highlights a number of world class examples of the application of Arup’s trademark innovation. For example, at the Galleria Fashion Mall in Seoul, South Korea, a media facade wraps around the building to form a fluid, dynamic skin. Designed in collaboration with UNStudio, nearly 5,000 glass discs make up an ocean of colors and movements. Also, for the first time globally, Arup combined LED lighting with photovoltaic arrays in the GreenPix - Zero Energy Media Wall, creating a dynamic façade that produces twice the energy it consumes.

Award-winning team. At Arup, lighting is an integral and important element of intelligent building design, as well as a specialty field in its own standing. Working from offices in the UK, the Netherlands, Germany, Russia, Japan, Australia and the US, Arup Lighting’s award-winning team creates unique and creative answers to clients’ particular business objectives.

Tony Janicki, Ph.D. President, Janicki Environmental, Inc. Dr. Janicki is the president and co-founder of Janicki Environmental, Inc. His expertise is recognized with 38 years of experience in the areas of aquatic ecology, water quality modeling and assessments, monitoring program design, limnology, estuarine ecology, and biological assessments. In 1999, Tony along with his wife Susan founded Janicki Environmental, Inc. to provide consulting services to public and private entities in the areas of water supply, watershed management and planning, and aquatic ecology. Since 1999, Janicki Environmental, Inc. has been heavily involved in water quality issues related to Florida’s Impaired Water Rule, Total Maximum Daily Loads, Minimum Flows and Levels and Basin Management Action Plans. _____________________________________________________________________________

PROJECT EXPERIENCE TMDL Reasonable Assurance - Tampa Bay Nitrogen Management Consortium: Dr. Janicki directed an effort with local stakeholders in Tampa Bay and the Tampa Bay Estuary Program in the development of the 2009 Reasonable Assurance Addendum: Allocation & Assessment Report. This report synthesizes over 3 years of effort among a consortium of Tampa Bay stakeholders known as the Nitrogen Management Consortium (NMC) to derive nitrogen allocations for all entities and major sources within the Tampa Bay watershed, consistent with the federally-recognized nitrogen TMDL for Tampa Bay. This effort included working with members of the NMC, including FDEP, to equitably distribute the burden of nitrogen load reductions among stakeholders. Dr. Janicki was the project manager for this effort, working with NMC members, TBEP staff, and EPA and DEP to ensure agreement on methodology and the equitable allocations of TMDL loads among entities. TMDL support - Tampa Bay stakeholders: Janicki Environmental continues to work with a group of stakeholders separate from the NMC including the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), Hillsborough County, Pinellas County, Polk County, the City of Tampa, and the City of St. Petersburg in a formal challenge to a group of Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) proposed by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) including over 20 tidal tributaries to Tampa Bay. BMAP support - Indian River Lagoon stakeholders: Janicki Environmental is currently working with a group of stakeholders in the Indian River and Banana River Lagoons in assessing the scientific merit of TMDL’s established for the Northern portion of the Indian River Lagoon system. Janicki Environmental is conducting analytical work including development of refined pollutant loading estimates for the watershed and developing stressor-response models relating pollutant loadings to ecological endpoints in estuarine waters. Recommendation of numeric nutrient criteria for Tampa Bay, Sarasota Bay, Charlotte Harbor, and Clearwater Harbor St. Joseph Sound: Janicki Environmental, Inc., working in cooperation with the Tampa Bay Estuary Program, Sarasota Bay Estuary Program, Charlotte Harbor National Estuary Program, Pinellas County, and the Southwest Florida Water Management District (SWFWMD), developed recommendations for numeric nutrient criteria in the systems’ estuarine waters using pollutant loading model estimates, empirical stressor-response modeling, and reference period approaches. Dr. Janicki provided project oversight and consultation services to the clients. These recommendations were accepted by FDEP and EPA.


Technical assistance to FDEP - statewide instream chlorophyll criteria, monitoring program design, Impaired Waters Rule review: Working with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP), Dr. Janicki provided technical expertise in data analysis and development of instream chlorophyll criteria to be used as part of the assessment for nutrient impairment by the state. Dr. Janicki also provided support to the FDEP Ambient Monitoring Program, including assistance in the analysis of water quality data for the Suwannee River, and development of a trophic state index for Florida estuaries. He also contributed to the redesign of the statewide surface and ground water monitoring programs for the FDEP, provided assistance to FDEP in its development of data management and analysis protocols in support of its Surface Water Ambient Monitoring Program, and directed a review of the Impaired Waters Rule software application for FDEP. Review of EPA numeric nutrient criteria proposed rule: Janicki Environmental provided a detailed review to the City of Tampa on the science behind EPA’s proposed rule for establishing numeric nutrient criteria in Florida freshwater lakes and streams. Dr. Janicki was heavily involved in review of the models, assumptions of those models and the resulting proposed numeric criteria including the proposed downstream protective values. The review identified assumptions, the ramifications of these assumptions, and suggested revisions to the methodology used to develop numeric nutrient criteria. Dr. Janicki provided oversight and consultation on review of the proposed rule and technical support document, and interacted with the City of Tampa regarding the findings, implications, and the path forward. This review was submitted to EPA by the City of Tampa. Empirical approaches to establishing numeric nutrient criteria in Southwest Florida estuaries: The purpose of this project was to identify empirically based analytical methods that could be used to establish objective, scientifically defensible, numeric nutrient criteria protective of the estuarine waters of Tampa Bay, Sarasota Bay and Charlotte Harbor, Florida. Working with the Tampa Bay Estuary Program (TBEP), Sarasota Bay Estuary Program (SBEP), the Charlotte Harbor National Estuary Program (CHNEP), and the Southwest Florida Water Management Districts, Janicki Environmental, Inc. developed this guidance document based on their previous success in employing empirical methods to identify appropriate biological threshold values and associated environmental conditions protective of estuarine waters. Dr. Janicki’s responsibility was to provide project oversight and input using his expertise in aquatic ecology to identify reasonable approaches to set numeric nutrient criteria while acknowledging the uncertainty often accompanying attempts to define stressor-response relationships in estuarine waters. This guidance document was accepted by the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s Science Advisory Board for consideration when developing the proposed criteria for Florida estuaries. Implementation issues associated with EPA’s numeric nutrient criteria: Working for the Tampa Bay Estuary Program, Janicki Environmental wrote a technical memorandum describing the potential issues associated with implementation of EPA’s numeric nutrient criteria in Tampa Bay. Dr. Janicki provided consultation and project oversight on analysis of the various issues to be considered as part of implementing the numeric nutrient criteria in Florida waters. This investigation focused on factors affecting dissolved oxygen concentrations in Tampa Bay, assessment of how natural inter-annual variability in rainfall can effect compliance with numeric nutrient criteria expressed either as concentrations or loads and how uncertainty in the determination of the criterion value for numeric nutrient criteria can be incorporated into the assessment protocols such that the evaluation does not result in falsely determining that a waterbody is impaired simply due to sampling variation, natural variability or biases in the sampling design.

RE: Letter of Recommendation

Dear Ms. Wilks:

Please accept this letter as my unconditional recommendation for the services of W Architecture.

redesign of Riverfront Park, a four acre parcel that serves as the crown jewel of our downtown. As I write this letter, the Parnow completed and awaiting formal dedication.

The Park represents a rare alchemy in which vision and guiding design principles were successfully transmuted from sketches

that met our highest expectations.

are emphatically put forth by the general public and by the client principals. Superimposed upon the kaleidoscopic range of vfor the park was a tough budget. Nonetheless, you and your staff successfully distilled the best elements of the collective comnity vision into a design that was not only coherent, but also within our ability to afford.

Finally, as you are aware, we are hopefully awaiting a funding decision on the next phase of the project -- connections from

forward to once again engaging your services.

Sincerely,

Willi R h W Architecture and Landscape Architecture, LLC0195

Reference: ADDENDUM NO. 2

To the Request for Proposals for: Pier Approach Design and Construction Administration Services

This referenced Addendum is made and hereby becomes a part of the Request for Proposals for the subject Project (Answers to firm’s questions are provided in red).

1. Where should Appendix C be located in the Proposal in addition to the digital copy on the flash drive? Appendix C can go behind Appendix B in the bound copy. Also submit one loose bound copy.

2. Please explain Appendix B – Previous work for the City of St Petersburg – should that include any of the consultants or just prime? Previous related experience – how is that different from what is described in the proposal or SF330? Appendix B is a simple listing of the work experience from the Prime. It could be the same as the projects listed in SF330, however since SF330 pertains to selected projects of relevant examples, it may not include the list of projects previously worked on for the City of St. Petersburg

3. For Technical Qualifications, should all examples only be built/completed/under construction projects? It is not ncessary for all project examples to have been completed or under construction. Projects that are slated to start construction beyond the due date of this submission are acceptable. Would some Design/Development only projects be admissible? Relevant examples of Design/Development only projects are acceptable. Should D/D only be provided in additional sections, outside of the SF330? It is up to the proposer to determine if and how to present relevant project examples.

4. For the sub companies who are part of the Team, will only the form 330 filled out by each company be sufficient for this proposal? Do you also need copies of licenses, etc.? It is recommended that copies of licenses as well as any certifications (such as City SBE or State MBE) be submitted within the proposal.

5. The SF 330s must be filled out completely with all information. However, it is optional for us to provide the additional information for the listed 330 projects in a different format in separate sections. In this instance, would the different format reference the project number from the 330? For example – of the 10 projects listed on page 4 of the 330 – if we provide additional material for 5 of those 10 projects, does the order they appear in the additional section make a difference? The listing of selected projects that are provided as additional information beyond the standard SF330, does not need to be in the same numerical sequence as those listed in SF330. If the 10 projects listed on page 4 must be completed/built projects, could the additional material include information about other projects in design/development only? Yes.

6. Can the order of the proposal change from the order listed in the RFP? Can I include references after experience, for example? It is ok to list references after experience.

7. For References, are you looking for 3 from the prime only or 3 per team? Three from the prime only.
