Wettbewerbsaufgabe
The City of North Miami is one of the most flood-prone areas in Miami-Dade County. Land elevations are at or below the maximum tide levels, commonly at two feet NAVD 88. Groundwater levels are a major contributor to inland flooding.
Over the years, the City has acquired a considerable number of vacant and flood-prone properties. In North Miami, many of the vacant lot sites are located in low-income and minority communities, predominantly home to people of Haitian descent.
The presence of these vacant lots exacerbates perceptions of neglect and threatens to drag down neighboring home values. Some of these properties are categorized as repetitive loss properties, insurable buildings for which two or more claims of more than $1,000 were paid by the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) within any rolling ten-year period since 1978. The City is interested in identifying contextually relevant, low-maintenance uses for these properties in an effort to improve quality of life through urban design.
A successful masterplan and pilot design for RL properties should:
• Reimagine RL sites as valuable and accessible community spaces that support wellbeing and promote artistic opportunities
• Develop stormwater management solutions to raise FEMA-designated Community Rating System points for local homeowners
• Create a forward-looking and scalable policy and design implementation plan
