Trowbridge Recreation Center Restoration and Alterations

The Trowbridge Recreation Center restoration and alterations project involves a comprehensive and historically-sensitive renovation of a 7,900-square-foot facility located in New Haven, Connecticut. The scope includes restoring the building’s exterior facade, reroofing, and complete interior reconstruction of key spaces such as the lobby, gymnasium, classrooms, and support areas. The interior has been fully gutted and abated, with the exception of some lead and PCB paint on the windows, which will be removed and replaced as part of the work. All existing roof equipment has been removed, and the project encompasses structural modifications, including removals, replacements, and reinforcements as detailed in the project drawings and manual. The project is solicited under a formal invitation for bids (IFB) with a response deadline of October 1, 2024, and is managed by the City of New Haven’s Department of Connecticut. The contract is valued at approximately $3,000, with the NAICS code 238160 indicating specialty trade contractors involved in building finishing and other construction activities. The primary point of contact is Melissa Kops, reachable via email and phone. Additionally, contractors must comply with new EEOC fee requirements introduced by the City of New Haven, which involve mandatory fee submissions based on contract size, effective from July 1, 2024. This ensures adherence to equal opportunity regulations and proper documentation throughout the procurement process.
