Title of Project: Rehabilitate Historic Laurel Dormitory, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming
Description:
Work will consist of the historic rehabilitation of the severely deteriorated Laurel Dormitory and its conversion to a 20 unit NPS employee housing unit. The Laurel Employee Dormitory at Old Faithful was constructed in 1925 and contributes to the Old Faithful Historic District and the Old Faithful Cultural Landscape. It is also adjacent to and within the immediate context of the Old Faithful Inn National Historic Landmark. Recent condition assessments of the Laurel Dormitory have revealed multiple deficiencies associated with the building structure and related mechanical and electrical systems due to the age of the building. Although sporadically updated over the years many of the building components are well beyond their design lives and are showing signs of advanced deterioration. These deficiencies include structural, mechanical, and health/life safety issues as well as a lack of meeting current accessibility standards.
The Laurel Dormitory was constructed on geothermally altered ground and is within 150 feet of active hydrothermal features. The ground on which the dormitory lies is geothermally active. Further, the red clay that abuts the northwest side of Laurel Dorm is considered a stratum of geothermally altered clay that acts like cap on underlying hydrothermal fluid flow and thus should not be disturbed. Disturbance of this layer of red clay can adversely affect nearby hydrothermal activity. Great caution should therefore be taken when working on the dormitory foundation and related groundwork.
Under the four treatments identified in the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties (2017), this project would be considered rehabilitation, which focuses upon the act or process of making possible a compatible use for a property through repair, alterations, and additions while preserving those portions or features which convey its historical, cultural, or architectural values. Under these standards, new additions, exterior alterations, or related new construction will not destroy historic materials, features, and spatial relationships that characterize the property; new work will be differentiated from the old and will be compatible with the historic materials, features, size, scale and proportion, and massing to protect the integrity of the property and its environment. For this project, rehabilitation work includes seismic stabilization, roof replacement, mitigation of ventilation and moisture issues, replacement of deteriorated structural components, drainage, and improvement of the overall building envelope. All mechanical and electrical systems are to be replaced. The sewer main should be inspected.
Currently there is no ABA access into the building. The design shall include ABA parking, and an ABA route into the building.
Net Available Construction Dollars: More than $10,000,000.00
Estimated Period of Performance: November 2024 September 2025
Proposal receipt date is not known at this time. The actual date will be established in the solicitation documents
