Blue
Green Diamond, Florida
At 45 stories, these luxury towers are the world's
tallest oceanfront residential buildings. In addition
to the towers, the property includes a three-story health
club and spa, covered garages, two community pools,
a pool side café, cabanas, volleyball courts,
jogging trails, and a children’s tot lot.
Coastal
Systems International, Inc. obtained all the necessary
permits for the towers and the auxiliary structures,
including construction, coastal construction, and marine
turtle lighting. Coastal Systems also worked with the
Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), providing
analysis and other back-up, in order to ensure that
the shear wall percentage necessary for the proposed
design was approved.
In addition to obtaining the regulatory permits, Coastal
Systems designed the beach access with gazebo and dune
restoration. Civil drawings included paving, grading,
and drainage as well as utility service connections
that tied into the 12” water main extension, which
upgraded the city water and sewer supply. Our civil
engineers also reviewed the dewatering study submitted
by another engineering firm. They performed a site visit
to inspect the conditions, including the installed cut-off
wall. The MODFLOW computer modeling software was used
to confirm the results.
