2021-012 - Architectural Services for Hiawatha Gardens' Restoration Design & Cost Estimates

The City is issuing a Request for Proposal for an Architect with historic restoration experience for restoration of the historic Hiawatha Gardens dancehall, located at 10 Old Man's Trail.  Architects responding to this proposal must have experience using the Secretary of Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation and Preservation.  The chosen Architect will work closely with the City of Manitou Springs Public Works and Planning Departments in consultation with Hiawatha Gardens Task Force No. 3 to restore the Hiawatha Gardens historic dancehall to its historic appearance in its period of historic significant – 1920-1950 – and to return the dancehall to a year-round venue that meets all applicable building code requirements.

Additionally, design of an adjacent or adjoining structure or structures to provide necessary restroom facilities for the historic dancehall and the entire Hiawatha Gardens property and design of a mobility hub for the site is a separate but related element of this overall project.
