On behalf of myself, Rich Lundin, Bobby Saccenti, along with thousands of
members of the Offshore Community, I would like to thank you and the City
of Aventura for considering our proposal for a memorial for l88th Street.
As you know, 1 88th street was to center for the builders of Offshore
Powerboats that were built for Kings, Sheiks, and even our own President,
George W. Bush, SR.(President Bushs' Cigarette is in the Presidential
Museum) Offshore Powerboating is a sport that has a worldwide audience
that evolved because ofthis street and the influence of men like Don
Aronow (Cigarette Racing Team) and Bobby Saccenti (APACHE
Powerboats),along with many more. It is in the spirit of this sport that the
Offshore Community would like to leave a legacy of this street in the form
of a memorial.
In our conversation, Eric, you had mentioned an area in the park at the end
of l88th Street. Another suggestion that was proposed was on the Median as
you enter the street. Additionally, our group has an interest in a
commemorative street sign for that street that can be affixed below the
existing street sign. The design of the monument cannot be decided until the
City of Aventura permits for this. Upon receiving permission, I will provide
various examples for your approval and work closely with the City of
Aventura to have a Memorial that is acceptable by both the City and the
Offshore Community.
I look forward to working with you on this very important piece of history
that represents so much to so many people. Please advise me when this will
be presented so that I can make arrangements to fly down for the City
Counsel meeting. I will attend the City Counsel meeting as well as Rich
Lundin, Bobby Saccenti, and David Aronow. All contact numbers are
attached for myself, Rich Lundin and Bobby Saccenti. Thank You
Jack Lieske
