Our board of directors and sub-committee members include architects, designers, urban planners, biking advocates, marketing experts, philanthropists, legal and accounting professionals, business leaders, real estate developers, and more. Master Plan: Through a competitive process, James Corner Field Operations of New York City was selected to create the master plan for The Underline 10 mile linear park and urban trail. With input collected from surveys and 6 public meetings the plan was completed in late December, 2015. During 2017 progress continued on the planning, design and fund sourcing for the Underline, particularly, phase 1, the Brickell Barkyard. Extensive additional work was performed by James Corner Field Operations to complete the additional specialized studies, construction documents, and other services necessary to support the anticipated groundbreaking. Groundbreaking is expected in 2018 for Brickell Backyard: Phase I. Led by James Corner Field Operations working with Friends of The Underline in partnership with Miami Dade County Transportation and Public Works Departments, our first phase of design is for The Underline: Brickell Backyard from the Miami River Greenway connection to SW 13th Street (Coral Way). In this segment, there is a proposed outdoor gym with basketball court, performance stage, outdoor swing, gaming tables, communal table, bike parking garage, food concessions, native vegetation, lighting, seating and The Underline biking and walking paths. There will also be improved biking and walking connections at 7th, 8th and 13th streets. 10000 The Underlounge: An experience of Miami's transformative new linear park with a fun, FREE festival for all ages including music and art!
