Key Lincoln Road property owners endorse South Beach ACE plan - South Florida Business Journal: "Vornado Realty Trust and a handful of key Lincoln Road property owners have endorsed South Beach Ace’s proposal to modernize the Miami Beach Convention Center. “The South Beach ACE team has purposely reoriented the convention center main entrance and concourse towards Lincoln road and also has made a pedestrian friendly median in order to cross 17th Street,” wrote Vornado Realty Trust CEO and Chairman Steven Roth. “The city of Miami Beach will benefit from the master planning firm of OMA focusing on the future of the City.”. . . ."

Miami Beach commissioners ponder taxpayers’ share of convention center redevelopment - Miami Beach - MiamiHerald.com: "After being dazzled for months by stunning designs of what a redeveloped Miami Beach Convention Center district could look like, commissioners on Wednesday got their first serious look at the public price tag associated with the massive project. After a full day of meetings, only one thing was clear: Commissioners want more time to “digest” the financials. . . ."

MIAMI BEACH SQUARE from BIG on Vimeo.
BIG together with West 8, Fentress, JPA and developers Portman CMC proposes Miami Beach Square as the centerpiece of their 52 acre Convention Center. Miami Beach Square involves bringing to life one of Miami Beach’s most underutilized public sites with a fully-revamped convention center capable of luring major events from around the world, inviting green spaces, and cultural venues. Miami Beach Square serves as the pivoting point for all activities around it. The main streets are connected across the square for pedestrians and bicycles – and vehicular access. The Soundscape is connected across the square to The Botanical Gardens and the Holocaust memorial. Pennsylvania Avenue is connected across the square to Convention Center Boulevard. The shortcuts and connections define an urban block structure of building and landscapes. Rather than a great green empty void, the public realm is programmed by patches of landscapes and buildings connected by plazas and paths. Some of the patches of park are peeled open to accommodate for small-scale community owned businesses: a shake shack, a bike rental, a small gallery.
