Miami-based architect Nichols Brosch Wurst Wolfe & Associates came up with designs that include glass enclosures over a pair of circular carved postholes in the bedrock archaeologists believe mark the foundations of Indian dwellings. Developer MDM Group is slated to present an updated project plan to Miami commissioners today.
