This project was a City Redevelopment Association (CRA) waterfront redevelopment site in the City of Riviera Beach, Florida. The engineering firm of Calvin Giordano had to develop a design that would meet South Florida Water Management Districts permitting requirements covering current and future water Quality and Quantity standards. Understanding that future development on this site would be creating more impervious surfaces as well as needing additional parking we were able to work with the engineer and design a permeable system that would achieve the desired results required for permitting from the District. The system was comprised of 18" of washed #4 limerock, 5" of #57 limerock, 2" of #89 and the wearing course was a 3-1/8" Eco-Holland paver manufactured by Coastal, an Oldcastle Company. The installation took place over several months by Precise Paving. The 18' wide lower promenade along the marina bulkhead consisted of 25,000 SF of 4"x 8"x 3-1/8" Holland Stone interlocking concrete paver laid by hand. The upper promenade was installed as a permeable system using 75,000 SF of 4"x 8"x 3-1/8" Eco-Holland Stone permeable paver that was also installed by hand due to the number of planter boxes, and patterns involved making a machine installation difficult. The perimeter road that encircles the new building is 30,000SF also installed as a permeable system using the same paver as the upper promenade. This area was mechanically installed by Precise Paving allowing the contractor to meet his deadlines and open the new facility on time. All of this was accomplished by a coordinated effort from the design team, general contractor, City CRA, paver manufacturer, site contractor and installation contractor. 2016 HNA Awards Honorable Mention Honoree: Concrete Paver - Permeable - Commercial Contractor/Installer: Precise Paving Product Manufacturer: Oldcastle Coastal Designer: Calvin, Giordano & Associates Engineers, EDSA Landscape Architects

Moving from the city, these homebuilders bought a vacant lot in the country, allowing them to put their dreams and ideals to reality. KKLA sited the house and outdoor living spaces to take advantage of protection from afternoon sun and winds. The straw-bale construction and orientation of the house allow for indoor comfort during the hottest days, without the use of air-conditioning. Meanwhile, sustainable practices such as bio-swales and permeable paving complement the drought-tolerant landscape. The property now feels abundant and complete with native plants, wildflower meadows, fruit trees, and a vegetable garden, not to mention an organic vineyard, a lavender farm, a barn and horse paddocks, chickens and a faithful old lab.
