Attachment ARFQ SUMMARY
Attachment "A"
The Invitation: The City of Miami Beach is extending invitations to qualified developers to submit
qualifications and conceptual proposals for the development of the City-owned property know as
the "72nd Street Site" (the Site). The City will evaluate submissions based on experience and
financial capability and select a developer with whom to enter into negotiations.
The Site: The Site is located between Collins and Harding Avenues, fiom 72nd Street to 73rd Street.
The approximately 4-acre site is immediately north of the 71st Street Commercial District and south
of the Harding Towusite Commercial District, which extends along Collins Avenue between 73rd
and 75th Streets. It is situated on the eastern portion of the east/west "open space" park and
recreational system between 72nd Street and 73rd Street, which extends from the Atlantic Ocean on
the east to the Tatum Waterway on the west. To the immediate east side of the Site is the North
Shore open band shell, and to the west, the tennis courts of North Shore Park. The Site is currently
used as a public surface parking lot (approximately 306 spaces) serving adjacent uses.
Zoning: The Site is currently zoned GU Government Use District; the underlying Future Land Use
Map designation is CD-3 Commercial High-Intensity. Main permitted uses for the GU District are
government buildings and uses, including but not limited to, parking lots and garages; parks and
associated parking; schools; performing arts and cultural facilities; and monuments and memorials.
Uses not listed above may be approved by the City Commission through a public hearing. Private
or joint government/private uses including air rights, shall be reviewed by the Planning Board prior
to approval by the City Commission. The maximum allowable building height is seventy-five (75)
feet or seven (7) stories, and 2.75 is the maximum allowable floor area ratio. The City of Miami
Beach does not encourage the maximum use of the zoning envelope, and the development must
be compatible with the surrounding area.
Performance Objectives: While no specific uses are mandated, the City's preference is for a mix
of uses, including a design that will respect and promote the spirit of the east/west "open space" park
and recreational system of this area and serve to complement the vitality and evolution of the 71 st
Street Commercial District, as well as the historic Harding Townsite Commercial District, between
73rd and 75th Streets on Collins Avenue, by creating a clean, safe, and stimulating environment for
the people of the City of Miami Beach, its visitors, and the surrounding areas. The architecture and
site development should be of the highest quality contemporary design and planning of our time, and
should respect, reinforce, and appropriately advance the unique urban character as well as historic
qualities of the area, inclusive of the general feeling of "open space", which distinguishes North
Beach fi'om South Beach.
Desired Development Concepts: The City is seeking a development project that enhances and
meets the needs of the businesses, residents, and visitors of the area and that contributes to the
vision/goals of promoting North Beach as a quality residential community and a family oriented
visitor destination. Uses that could be compatible with these goals include:
Commercial Development to meet residential goods and service needs, providing a linkage
and/or anchor between the 71st Street Commercial District and the Harding Townsite
Commercial District
Residential, mixed use project that provides upgraded housing stock and product
n
Class A Office Space component that is compatible with other activity programmed for the
Site and complementary to the two established adjacent business districts
· Retail and/or restaurant establishments that promote pedestrian activity
Public Plaza or Plazas ("open space") facilitating enhancement of the special "open space"
systems unique to the urban character North Beach and the park areas to the east and west
of the Site
· Family oriented entertainment destination for residents and visitors
Enhanced Parking for the uses adjacent to the Site as well as the Ocean Terrace and upper
Collins Avenue hotel districts
Expanded support facilities for cultural, arts, community theater and performance groups that
could perform in the North Beach area
· Educational and/or Public Institutions

II. THE DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY
A. BACKGROUND
Over the last ten years Miami Beach has evolved l~om being a predominantly tourist destination with
a large retirement population, to one which may be characterized as a vibrant urban residential, resort
and business community.
Access to splendid North Shore beaches and parks, the allure of two historic districts and the
increasingly popular Ocean Terrace resort and residential enclave, as well as close proximity to
adjacent municipalities Surfside, Bal and Bay Harbours, North Bay Village due west, are all
contributing factors to the rediscovery of Miami Beach's North Shore as a place to visit, live, and
work. The influx of younger residents and families, coupled with the establishment of new
businesses in the area, has established North Beach as a major part of a dynamic international city.
North Beach, with its convenient location, tropical climate, and lively pedestrian character, has the
ability to attract a wide range of substantial business activity. One of the highlights of the area is
the Ocean Terrace beachside hotel and residential district, which recently under, vent a substantial
renovation as a part of a major North Beach public improvements project that involved extensive
streetscape, landscape and other aesthetic improvements, totaling $21 million and demonstrating the
City's commitment to the complete revitalization of its very substantial "uptown" areas.
North Beach enjoys an increasingly diverse assortment of international restaurants and sidewalk
cafes, as well as a rapidly revitalizing market for large scale as well as small-scale "boutique" hotels,
along the beach from 63rd to 87th Streets. Similarly it is becoming home to numerous art shows,
festivals, and outdoor performances. These are being held in its significant and substantial "open
space" areas, including public parks, such as the North Shore Open Space Park and recreational
systems, such as the North Shore (athletics) Park, and the 72nd Street Band Shell.
Finally, the remarkable history of North Beach, incorporating the direct involvement of three
American presidents, Ulysses S. Grant, in 1875, Warren Harding, in 1922, and Franklin Delano
Roosevelt, in 1941, was but one of the powerful incentives for the City Commission to designate the
Harding Townsite/South Altos Del Mar Historic District in 1996 (extend'rog along Collins Avenue
and Ocean Terrace, from 73rd Street to 77th Street); another magical incentive was the diverse
collection of Art Deco, Streamline Moderne, and Post War Modem style structures, designed by the
City's architectural masters between the 1930s and the mid 1960s, which has already brought fame,
economic revitalization, and renaissance to South Beach from 1979 through the present.
Thus, the diverse and distinctive history, architecture and marine environment of North Beach lend
significantly and positively to the future of the area by making it a unique touring, shopping and
dining, entertainment, and residential destination with a new and invigorating international flare.
The 72nd Street Site was originally a part of the United States Federal Life Saving Reserve
established by President Ulysses S. Grant, on July 25, 1875, for the purpose of rescuing shipwreck
victims and providing them succor and assistance to return to the mainland. Following the
3
discontinued use of the site for this purpose in the 1920s, a political battle ensued to secure a part
of the former Reserve as an urban open space system.
In 1941, an Act of Congress ultimately resulted in the 22 acre tract of land, including the Site, being
sold to the City of Miami Beach for use as a public park, thus preserving the "open" character of
much of the original life saving reserve through to today. Indeed, the recreational park and open
band shell facilities, located to the west and east of the Site, are among most intensively used
outdoor public facilities in the City.
Today, the Site is a landscaped and metered municipal parking lot, serving the adjacent business
districts to the north and south, as well as the band shell, park and public recreational facilities to the
east and west.
B. DEVELOPMENT AND DESIGN PARAMETERS
The development of the Site will substantially define the image of North Beach's easternmost
business districts as well as its unique east/west "open space" system for many decades to come and
consequently, this development must be considered with the greatest care. It is the single largest and
most strategically located tract of open public land available for development in North Beach today.
It occupies approximately 4 acres between Collins and Harding Avenues, a block north of the
intersection of the City's northernmost primary east/west transportation corridor, the 71st Street
Corridor, which becomes the John F. Kennedy Causeway at the City's western limit, as it crosses
Biscayne Bay through the City of North Bay Village to Miami and 1-95. This singular location
makes the Site conveniently accessible to the splendid Atlantic Ocean beaches of North Beach, its
hotel districts, local businesses, cafes and historic districts, as well as oceanside park and recreational
areas. The Site's proximity to Miami Beach's "sister" communities of Surfside and Bal Harbour to
the north also offer unique opportunities for exceptional development. To the south, the Site is
likewise convenient to the upper and mid Collins Avenue hotel districts, as well as all of South
Beach, including the rapidly redeveloping Lincoln Road Mall; the Washington Avenue commercial
corridor; the Jackie Gleason Theater of the Performing Arts (TOPA); the Miami Beach Convention
Center; the renovated and expanded Bass Museum and amerging Collins Park Cultural Arts Campus;
the Holocaust Memorial; and Miami Beach City Hall; and of course Miami Beach's important Art
Deco Historic District.
The 72nd Street Site has remained open public land, available for appropriate development today,
for important reasons. Early in the history of Miami Beach, even in the period dating back to 1875,
users of the Site had kept this land "open" for public purpose; first as a life saving reserve, then a
Coast Guard Station, then a municipal public park, and finally, a landscaped municipal parking lot
serving adjacent uses. This well considered and rigorously debated urban land use progression
ultimately reflected the City forefathers' caution in preserving the Site for an appropriate and sensible
future use; such a use, or mix of uses, would need to best serve the North Beach community in a
responsible manner. Wise planning policies and progressive thinking has served this City well and
now provides for a unique development opportunity.
4
Although the Site is not included within the boundaries of the Harding Townsite/South Altos Del
Mar Historic District or the Altos Del Mar Historic District to its north, the Harding Townsite/South
Altos Del Mar Historic District lies immediately adjacent to the Site's northern boundary and is one
of the important contextual relationships to be addressed. Arguably, the National Register Art Deco
Historic District in South Beach has been and continues to be the single most tangible influence
fueling the City's extraordinary resurgence as a design and tourism mecca. The North Beach historic
districts, which contain much of the same architecture and character, are anticipated to have a similar
positive effect here when properly revitalized. The City Commission, the City Administration,
residents, visitors, and design professionals alike will closely monitor any development proposed
for the subject Site; particularly analyzing all proposals not only for their functional merit and best
appropriate use of the Site, but also for their sensitivity and compatibility to Miami Beach's local
historic districts and the City's design legacy.
The City Administration, as well as the Historic Preservation and Design Review Boards, have
clearly signaled their ongoing interest in preserving the special urban character of the Beach while
advancing its cutting edge design continuum well into the future. Due to the scale of the proposed
project, and its anticipated impact on the central business districts as well as adjacent local historic
districts, it is imperative that the development project must be clearly compatible with the unique
pedestrian character, urban scale and building materials, and "open space" relationships of North
Beach.
C. SITE FUNCTIONS AND ADJACENT URBAN RELATIONSHIPS
In defining the successful future development of the Site, the following current Site functions and
established urban relationships must be carefully understood and reconciled in any proposal for
development:
Current Site Functions
Primary Municipal Parking for the North Beach Band Shell, North Shore Park, the 71st and
72nd Street Business Districts, and the Harding Townsite (73rd Street to 75th Street)
Commercial District as well as "overflow'' lot for Ocean Terrace.
Established Adjacent Urban Relationships of Major Significance

Crossroads of 71st Street and Collins and Harding Avenues, as well as at locations adjacent
to the site along Harding and Collins Avenues, including bike routes and storage.
D. PARKING REQUIREMENTS
The Site must maintain at least the current level of public parking (approximately 306 spaces)
available to the general public, in addition to serving its own needs. Preferably, the proposed Site
development will enhance the amount of parking currently available. This is critical, as the future
success of North Beach as a quality place in which to live, do business, and visit, will depend upon
availability of sufficient conveniently located parking as a high priority.

as your engineer requires to facilitate h/s assum/ng responsibility for these
supplementary drawings.
These supplementary drawings shall include but may not be Iimited to:
Drawings for the facade and front canopy extending from the front of the demised
premises to the front of the building, covering the canopy walkway, including
drawings for modifications required to Publix's structural drawings bv the
structural design of the canopy. These will include structural criteria and
calculations to facilitate review and approval by Publix.
Drawings for any modification requ/red to Publix structural drawings by the
structural design of adjacent shops. These will include structural criteria and
calculations to facilitate review and approval by Publix.
Drawings for any modifications required to Publix drawings to accommodate site
conditions other than those indicated on the drawings furnished by Publix, such as
elevated foundation walls with resulting ramps/steps from side doors and loading
docks/truck wells at the rear of the store.
Drawings for pilings and a structural slab as required. Should pilings and/or
structural slabs be required, Publix will provide a prototype design. This wilI be for
your enghneer's guidance only; he will be expected to assume responsibility for the
final design.

Impact Fees
Enclosed is an Impact Fee Questionnaire. It is the developer's responsibility to
negotiate the lowest possible cost for impact fees. Publix requires that the cost of
impact fees be capped. In order to arrive at the amount to be capped, the developer will
be required to determine how the county and/or city in which the shopping center will
be located determines impact fees. The Developer should obtain ail of the pertinent
information required for computing impact fees, calculate the estimated fees, and
submit the estimate along with all of the supporting documentation to Woody Rayburn
in the Publix Business Analysis and Reporting Department. Publix will require the
developer to document his plans for challeng4ng the county or city's assumptions used
to calculate the impact fees. This plan must be submitted to Publix before a cap amount
will be written into the lease. Please direct any questions regarding impact fees to
Woody Rayburn at (941) 616-5743.
Geotechnical Studies and Preliminary Drawings
Please send three copies of site geotechnical studies and preliminary drawings to
John Kitchens, P.E., for review at an early stage of design, thus avoiding any costly
redesign at an advanced stage of contract document preparation. Please see the
attached Site Development Package for specific Publix design criteria.
