Re: 1'01.' "s/ur Hotel
Dear Mr, Grandin:
On behalf of ACP Royal Palm Hotel LP ("RDP"). the long term lessee of the
Royal PalmJShorecrest site, please accept this letter as a formal request for a expedltecr
special meeting of the Historic Preservation Board and/or if necessary the Joint Historic
Preservation/Design Review Board to consider a reque5t to modify the e)(isting
Certificate of Approprfateness (file number BOB5J) to allow the Immediate demolition of
the existing ,Royal Palm Hotel and to begin consideration of the appropriate
replacement of this historic structure. ROP would prefer not to have to make this
reC1uest, however, as explained below and in the attached correspondence based on
extensive concrete core samplec and structunal analysis of the existing structure It has
been determined by: (1) Aqultectonlca, the project architect; (2) Rlva, TImmons and
Partners, the project structural engineer of record: (3) Hershell Gill consulting
Engineers, Inc.. the project peer revIew atructurall!lnglneer; Bnd (4) AGT Architects and
Thom Grafton, the Historic Preservation Architects for the project, that the exlsUng
Royal Palm Hotel structure cannot be repaired in 8uch II way ElS to meet the Mructural
requirements of the South Florida Building Code. (Bee copies of letters the consultants
attached to this letter.)
As you are awaret all pl!lrtles Including both the City andROP believed that
based en the preliminary analysis that the Royal Palm Hotel strudutB could be repaired
and preserved. Indead, all of the plal'1s, approvalS and permits Issued to date have
incorporated the Royal Palm structure based on the assumption that It could be
repaired to meet the South Florida Building Code requltementg- Once ROP was
allowed to begin Interior demolition wIthin the ftoyal Palm structure, It became apparent

to all parties that the deterioration of the existIng structure was much mote extensive
than originally realized. As the Interior demolition revealed more of the underlyIng
structure It was determined by both the City BUilding Department and the project design
team that additional strtlctural testing would be required to determine the extent Of the
damage.
On October 14,1998, ATC Associates Inc. reported the results oftests on
twenty-five concrete core samples taken throughout the seven story Royal Palm
strueture. (See copy of the Report attached to thl~ letter.) The results of these tests
show that twenty-two of the twenty.flve teats taken ware below the minImum Building
Code standard of 3,000 PSI. Moreover, the average PSI for the tests taken on the first
level of the structure was only 1 ,BA~ PSI. ThIs Is of particular concern as the first level
obviously carries the heaviest loads. The weak condItion of the concrete is further
complicated by the fact that the chloride content substantially exceeds the maximum
permitted level under the applicable codes. As a result, the existing concrete Itself is
causing the corrosion and ultimate failure of the reinforcing steel. This condition hs,
been described as a "cancer", causing the Intemal destruction of the Royal Palm Hotel
structure which can only be remedied through complete removal of the existing
concrete. In short, this structure cannot be saved because It will continue to self..
destruct eve" with repair and reinforcement.
In light of the above findings. the design team InCludIng Thorn Grafton have
begun further documenting the existing conditions at the Royal Palm In particular the
exact configuration and materials of the lobby and the western facade of the building.
This effort Is greatly enhanced by the fact that there Is a substantially complete set of
the original building drawings. ROP Is committed to Immediately providing complete
and thorough documentation of the historic condition of the lobby and western facade.
Further. RDP Is hereby commltung to the City of Miami Beach Elnd the Historic
Preservation Board that if It 18 approved by the City and Its various boards that RDP will
faithfully reconstruct a western facade and lobby of the Royal Palm bllsed on the
documentation of the existing condition and the historical building plans. This will
include documentatIon based on preservation of actual slImpl.. of the materials In the
lobby area and all of the Important architectural details, We are therefore seeking
immediate permission from the City of Miami Beach to begin biking appropriate
samples of these material!!! under the close supervision of' William Cary, the Pity's
Historic Preservation Officer.
We are aware that there may be a divergence of opinIon within the historic
preservation community and partIcularly the Historic Preservation Board about the most
appropriate way to replace the western facade and lobby area of the Royal Palm Hotel.

We are committed to working with the City, as the landlord, and the Historic
Preservation/Design Review Board staff and the Joint Boards to quickly develop an
appropriate set of plans for the replacetnent of the Royal Palm Hotel.
As we have explained In our various meetings with you and other City gfflclals,
the fact that this condition was not fully revealed until the Interior detnolltlon of the Royal
Paltn had substantllilly progressed has created significant timing problems fer RDP.
The contractor Is progressing wltl1 site work and the already approved partial demolition
of the eastern most addition to the Royal Palm at the current time. Under the expected
construction schedule, the contractor Is due to begIn staging site excavation followed by
for Installation of pilings and foundation on the site beginning In the flrst week of
November, Unfortunately, the structural engineers have advtsed that If additional work
In undertaken on the site which causes significant vIbration either within the Royal pg.lm
Hotel structure andJor In the areas Immediately surrounding It that the existing hotel
structure could fall, Moreover, aS8umlng that the existing Royal Palm structure must be
demolished we would need to undertake that demolition work before we stage the
Installation of piling and foundation work on the site so thlilt there lsa not a conflict
between those two operations.
If we are to avoid truly significant delay In the construction of this project, we
would need authorization for the demolition of the Royal Palm Ho1el structure by
october 3D, 1998 which is next Frldav. We are therefore requesting that the City call
an emergency special meeting of the Historic Preservation Board as early as possible
next week in order for t~at Board to consider authorlt:atlon of the demolition of the
Roysl Palm Hotel. As always, we apprecililte your continuing cooperation and
assistance. We would also like to extend an Invltiltlon to the Historic Preservation
Board members to indlvldutlillly view the condition of the building prior to the meeting. If
any Board member would like to view the building, we would ask that tl1ey contact your
office and that your office contact Michelle Kohler at 305-995-5330 so that we can
arrange for them to safely view the building. We !!Ire prepared to provide IIny
Information you may reasonably need and or help in any way we can In order to assist
In setting up this special meeting as soon as possible,
Carter N. McOowell
