Grove
Harbour, Florida
Coastal Systems International, Inc. assisted the City
of Miami in developing a new marina that would accommodate
potential upland uses. The 110-slip conceptual design
provided for transient charter vessels and long-term docking,
as well as the relocation of the travel lifts for the
upland drydock facility. The design also  anticipated
future development by accommodating an additional 28 slips.
A wave baffling system, which minimized wave energy transmission
into the facility, was designed and placed parallel to
the property bulkhead. The scope of work for this project
included current measurements and water circulation studies,
water quality analysis, model testing of wave transmission
into the facility, environmental permitting, and the design
of a 600-foot bulkhead to replace and stabilize the existing
shoreline.
Construction plans and specifications were prepared
and construction administration services provided. The
marina is now called Grove Harbour.
