Freedmen’s Town: Andrews and Wilson Street Design Concept Report

The conceptual Phase (also known as the Design Concept Report) for the project is now complete. The full report can be accessed on this webpage. The project will be moving soon into the Engineering Design Phase. A Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for the Engineering Design will be made available soon for interesting consulting teams to respond to. Stay tuned!

The Project is currently in the initial phase of Design Concept Report (DCR). During this preliminary planning phase, HPW will work with the community on:

• Collecting data to understand existing conditions along the brick streets
• Engaging community members and local stakeholders to understand key issues and opportunities along the brick streets
• Developing several design alternatives with community input for infrastructure improvements and preservation
• Recommending a preferred design alternative based on community input

The resulting DCR will provide a comprehensive analysis of design alternatives and become the basis for the future detailed engineering design. Community members will have several opportunities to participate in the DCR process and provide feedback that will inform the design alternatives. Details regarding the date and location of these local stakeholder and public meetings will be communicated to the community and posted on this webpage once confirmed.
