The contract involves constructing monument signs to honor four historic African American communities within the City of Virginia Beach, specifically in Lake Smith, Seatack, Great Neck, and Doyletown. The majority of these signs will feature a precast concrete face mounted on a brick veneer foundation wall, with brick columns on each end and precast caps atop the columns. Each sign will prominently display the community name using projected-mount cast bronze lettering. The Doyletown sign will be an addition to an existing sign, incorporating a brick wall with the phrase "An African American Historic Community," while the Seatack location will include the relocation of an existing sign. The project is solicited under the title "COVB-25-101538- Historic African American Community Monument Signs Phase II," with a response deadline set for June 25, 2025. The contract value is estimated to range between $200,000 and $500,000. The work is to be performed in Virginia, under the jurisdiction of the City of Virginia Beach, with the NAICS code 238120 indicating specialized construction services. This project aims to preserve and commemorate the historical significance of these communities through durable and visually impactful monument signage.
