Minority Business Enterprises and Women's Business Enterprises are encouraged to submit proposals. 1.2 In 2019, the City of Albany contracted with Lacey Thaler Reilly Wilson Architecture & Preservation, LLP to complete an assessment of City owned public restrooms located throughout the city. Based upon the results of their assessment, three locations have been selected for renovation. 1.3 Ridgefield Park is located between Partridge Street and Ridgefield Street just south of Avenue. The seven acre park facilities include softball fields, tennis courts, and a small spray pad. There are two sets of restrooms within this park that require renovation. The first is the men’s and women’s locker rooms located on the east side of the park which serve the tennis court area. The locker rooms are not ADA compliant and require major renovation. These locker rooms were included in the recent study completed by Lacey Thaler Reilly Wilson Architecture & Preservation, LLP and a summary of site specific issues has been included in Appendix A of this RFP. 1.4 In addition to the locker rooms, there is a second set of restrooms located on the west side of Ridgefield park that also require renovation. These restrooms serve the softball ---PAGE BREAK--- Restroom Renovation Project December 17, 2020 Ridgefield Park and Washington Park Lakehouse RFP 2020:45 3 of 18 fields and the spray pad. Although these restrooms were not included in the study, it is very clear that these restrooms are not ADA compliant. A floor plan of the existing restrooms has been included in Appendix B. Two alternatives will be considered for the renovation of these restrooms. The first alternative would be to renovate the existing restroom to convert it into a single ADA compliant restroom and install an additional modular prefabricated restroom. Both restrooms would be gender neutral. The second alternative would be to abandon the existing restrooms and install a larger modular prefabricated building that has two gender neutral restrooms. A second issue to the Ridgefield West restrooms is site access from Ridgefield Street. There is a seven to ten foot change in elevation from the sidewalk to the site which is currently not ADA accessible. Included in this project will be the installation of an ADA compliant concrete ramp to provide access to the site from Ridgefield Street as well as ADA upgrades and improvements to the Ridgefield Street/Park Avenue intersection. 1.5 The restrooms in the Washington Park Lakehouse are also in need of renovation. Built in 1929, this Spanish Revival style building with terracotta, terrazzo, brick and guastavino tile sits on the lake near the Madison Avenue entry to the park. This building is located within the Washington Park Historic District, as a Contributing structure. The men’s room and the Women’s room are not ADA compliant and require major renovation. These restrooms were included in the recent study completed by Lacey Thaler Reilly Wilson Architecture & Preservation, LLP and a summary of site specific issues has been included in appendix A of this RFP. 1.6 The City of Albany requests proposals from qualified Architectural/Engineering firms to provide professional services for the renovation of the restrooms.
