Athalie Range Park New Community Center: 

The City of Miami and D5 Commissioner Christine King are happy to announce the upcoming construction of the new community center at Athalie Range Park, a new 11,600 SF building (single story).  

The park and its new center honor the legacy of Ms. Athalie Range, an activist businesswoman, and the first African American to serve on the Miami City Commission.  She was also the first woman to head a Florida state agency, serving as Secretary of the Department of Community Affairs.

The design concept of the new building includes a tribute to her life and leadership, and it identifies opportunities for Art in Public Places, such as a feature art wall and artistic plaza paving.

The elements of the project in the new 11,600 SF community center include: 

  • Multi-Purpose Room with seating capacity for 160, for community meetings, classes, celebrations, and events
  • Fitness Room for health and wellness activities
  • Computer Lab for learning and digital access
  • Homework Rooms for after-school learning and tutoring (several dedicated rooms)
  • New Community Plaza with seating, exterior lighting and landscaping.  The plaza is designed to enhance outdoor activities such as community gatherings, evening movies, sports watching, performances, and leisure.
