South Beach Marriott
Hotel, Florida
The nine-story Marriott hotel and understructure garage
project included the remodeling of an existing historical
two-story hotel. In addition to the new structure and
remodeling of the existing hotel, the property included
a single story retail building, swimming pool, spa, a
walking trail, dune restoration and dune crossover/beach
access structure.
Coastal Systems International, Inc. obtained the construction,
coastal construction, and marine turtle lighting permits
for this project. We worked with the Department of Environmental
Protection, providing analysis and other back-up, in
order to ensure that the shear wall percentage and impervious
area necessary for the proposed design were approved.
In addition, a 100-year Storm Impact Analysis was performed
to evaluate storm recession and storm wave impacts associated
with the return period. For the beach/dune system, we
designed a cross over and analyzed the potential impacts
of the proposed construction.
