Specifications include, but are not limited to: The HACC seeks to select a Project Architect to design an eleven story apartment building at its 1900 Sherman Avenue property in Evanston, Illinois. The new building will be located to the south of the existing eleven story Jane R. Perlman Apartments building, which provides housing for low income seniors and disabled persons. The new building may abut the existing building, but will be structurally and functionally independent, except for shared parking and ingress/egress. The first three floors of the new building will be dedicated to structured parking. The new building will provide apartments for residents of mixed incomes, with the proportion of various income restricted units to be determined during the design process. All the units in the building will be age restricted to persons 55 years of age or older. The Scope of Services provided by the Project Architect will include: a) schematic design; b) design development; c) contract documents; d) bidding; and e) construction administration. HACC has conducted a Feasibility Study of the site, which determined that there is sufficient space on the site to add a second building. The Feasibility Study is attached to this RFP. HACC has also initiated discussions with City of Evanston regarding zoning relief needed for the project, and the City has encouraged HACC to move forward.
