P ONC E DE L EON PA R K Ponce de Leon, East Ponce de Leon, and Ponce Park The Ponce de Leon Park is the heart of the North Ponce neighborhood. In the 2002 Coral Gables Charrette, this park was proposed as a "Central Square for North Ponce," with the rec- ommendation of requiring properties to face the new square with arcades or similar edge. In 2015, the City initiated the 2015 North Ponce Community Visioning workshops. The public process included multiple public workshops with residents from the North Ponce neighbor- hood and community meetings. The park will be enhanced and expanded with wider sidewalks, wider landscaped areas, and parallel parking. The project is aligned with the strategic objectives to "Implement best prac- tices for urban and landscape design in public places" and "Enhance the pedestrian experience, safety, and connectivity in the City through crosswalks and sidewalks."

JUSTIFICATION This project is aligned with the feedback gathered from residents at multiple public meetings and workshops during the 2002 Charrette and the 2015 North Ponce Community Visioning public processes, as well as numerous strategic plan objectives. The Park enhancements will improve neighborhood safety and provide a gathering area for residents of the community which will improve their quality of life.

ALHAMBRA ENTRANCE IMPROVEMENTS Sidewalks, landscape, lighting The Alhambra (Commercial) Entrance is one of George Merrick's original entrances into Coral Gables. The City has made recent investments in the restoration of these entrances. Currently, residents in the area walk with automobile traffic in the street. Due to insufficient lighting and pedestrian activity within the entrance features, the structure has been used as overnight shelter. In 2015, the City initiated the 2015 North Ponce Community Visioning workshops. The public process included multiple public workshops with residents from the North Ponce neighbor- hood and community meetings. Safety and beauty concerns regarding the Alhambra Entrance were raised by nearby residents as a future Capital Improvement project. This project is aligned with the strategic objectives to "Improve mobility throughout the City;" "Increase community access and knowledge of historic and cultural sites;" and "Enhance the pedestrian experience, safety, and connectivity in the City through improved lighting, cross- walks, sidewalks, and way finding." This will provide lighting and sidewalks for additional 'eyes on the street' security, while pre- serving the historic integrity of the entrance.

The City is undertaking a comprehensive pedestrian infrastructure program. This project will provide sidewalks, lighting, and landscape while preserving the historic integrity of the entrance. JUSTIFICATION This project is based on the feedback gathered from residents at multiple public workshops during the 2015 North Ponce Community Visioning public meetings. The project is aligned with the strategic objectives to "Improve mobility throughout;" "Enhance the pedestrian experience, safety, and connectivity in the City;" and "Increase alternative mobility options to the community." The lack of sidewalks east of the entrance is a safety hazard for many residents who walk to Douglas Road to access daily conveniences, shopping, and transit. The entrance enhancements will improve neighborhood safety and pedestrian accessibility.

ALHAMBRA CIRCLE TRAFFIC CALMING Alhambra Circle Street Trees and Bike Lanes Originally designed by George Merrick as the commercial gateway into the city, the current conditions consists of excessively wide pavement that encourages speeding, both northbound and southbound. In 2015, the City initiated the 2015 North Ponce Community Visioning workshops, which included multiple workshops with residents from North Ponce and community meetings. The project will reallocate excess pavement to provide shade trees and bike lanes.

JUSTIFICATION This project is based on feedback gathered from residents at multiple public workshops during the 2015 North Ponce Community Visioning public meetings. This request is aligned with the strategic objectives to "Improve mobility throughout the City;" Enhance the pedestrian experience, safety, and connectivity in the City through improved lighting, crosswalks, sidewalks, and way finding;" and "Increase alternative mobility options to the community." Alhambra Circle, east of Galiano is excessively wide and encourages routine speeding.

STREETSCAPE IMPROVEMENTS Street Tree Planting Opportunities A master streetscape plan was recommended from the 2002 Coral Gables Charrette process for all North Ponce streets to enhance the city as a Garden City, with an emphasis on pedes- trian comfort. The project elaborates on the initial vision to maximize sidewalk width, access, add additional mid-block crossings,and promote increased urban open space. Additional rec- ommendations include providing traffic calming elements for Galiano and Salzedo Street.
