The City of Fort Lauderdale is reimagining city hall after a 1,000-year flood caused significant damage.
According to a statement, the city is set to transform the outdated infrastructure, in collaboration with the Infrastructure Task Force, Dickey Consulting Services, Inc., and the American Institute of Architects student chapter at Florida Atlantic University. The project goal is to create “a new, modern, resilient, and community-focused space”.
