ASCE COPRI Seattle Dinner Meeting - May 23, 2018

Topic:
The Wharf: largest waterfront redevelopment project in U.S.

Description:
What does it take to plan, design, fund, and deliver a two billion dollar waterfront project in Washington, D.C., home of every regulatory agency in the USA? The Wharf. is the largest Waterfront Redevelopment the Country and is billed as the nations maritime front porch. The project includes the replacement of over a mile of seawall, a 50 slip transient marina, a 90 slip private marina, a 300 slip public marina, and five major public access/commercial operation piers with event spaces, water taxi/ferry facilities, dinner cruise boat operations, and human powered craft docks. Phase 1 of the Wharf opened on October 12, 2017 with great fanfare, plenty of dignitaries, and 4 days of music and fireworks.

This presentation will detail the project development, stakeholder outreach, planning, design, proforma development, regulatory processes, and construction challenges involved in delivering the project. The entitlement process for the project included the de-authorization of a Federal Navigation Channel, which required Congressional approval. Additional topics will include project coordination, grant processing, pro-forma and due diligence, scheduling, planning, stakeholder outreach, underwater structural inspection, design, permitting, and construction document preparation and innovative contractor selection.
