The MJB intends to renovate and expand the building at 55 Lisbon Street in Lewiston to perform the functions of the Androscoggin Superior Court. The existing building has a footprint of approximately 8,200 ft2 and will be remodeled to include at least two jury courtrooms and all associated support spaces. Circulation pathways for staff and the public will be created on multiple levels, connecting 55 Lisbon Street to 71 Lisbon Street, the existing Lewiston District Court. Existing spaces in the Lewiston District Court, such as entry screening and prisoner circulation, will need to be changed to accommodate the new vision. Construction could begin as early as design and permitting are completed, anticipated to be on or about May 14, 2027. A phased construction approach is required as the Lewiston District Court is to remain operational during construction. The scope of services for this project includes, but may not be limited to, schedule and cost estimating, preliminary design, design development, contract documents, and administration of bidding and construction. The AE Consultant may be required to coordinate this work or additional work with other consultants contracted by the Owner.
