This project seeks proposals from firms to provide design services for restoration of the civil and landscape architectural features of Priley Circle in downtown Duluth. The selected firm will lead the design process through multiple levels of historic preservation and architectural design review, complete design development through construction documents, assist with bidding and permitting, and perform construction administration services. The Architect/Engineer (A/E) is to consider the following historic and/or modern elements as part of the design fabric: sidewalks, curbs, vehicular pavement, lighting, landscape features, plant materials, outdoor seating, handicapped accessibility, wayfinding, metered parking and electric vehicle (EV) charging. The final design solution should pay homage to the 1909 Burnham design, with consideration given to modern materials and construction methods. It is expected that the completed project’s aesthetic will prevail against time and be of minimal maintenance to the property owners.
