R9 U - Byron Carlyle Commission MeetingTTTHE TEAM: James Quinlan/Rhythm Foundation, Esther Park/Oolite Arts, Beth Boone/Miami Light Project, Vivian
Marthell/0 Cinema, Sammy Gonzales/Young Musicians Unite, Nicholas Richberg/Miami New Drama, Ever Chavez/
FUNdarte, Carol Coombes/PRIDE, David Sexton/Normandy Fountain Business Asc., Bruce Carter/Cultural Arts Council,
Roberto Espejo/Architect.
THE CONCEPT: Multi-Disciplinary Cultural Arts Center with Cinema, Theater, Art Gallery, Recording Studio, Cafe,
Teaching Space and Event Space.
THE AESTHETIC: Although the Byron was built in 1968 and is not a historically designated building, the emotional
attachment our residents have to the Byron was definitely part of our discussions. We would want the final design to
retain and reference key elements of the original 1968 structure with an added MIMO influence.
THE STATS: This preliminary study fits within the 3.5 FAR requirements for the building and a preliminary cost estimate
for the first two floors (Cultural Center only) conducted by NV2A Group came in at $30m. The Art Force Housing
component would need to be funded through a model like the one being implemented in the Collins Park Project with
additional Work Force housing grants
