Carl B. Stokes U.S. Courthouse Plaza Replacement CMa and CxP Services

This Statement of Work (SOW) is for a construction manager as the government's advisor (CMa) and commissioning provider (CxP). The General Services Administration (GSA) intends to design and construct a plaza extension as well as repair/replace the existing plaza. The scope includes replacement of the failing waterproofing system, refinishing and reinforcement of the structural steel supporting the plaza, repairs to fireproofing, and fulfillment of an unconstructed plaza area originally intended for the site. The surface parking lots and retaining wall will be upgraded. The new construction will provide vital pedestrian access from the primary gateway from west-side neighborhoods (Detroit-Superior bridge) and mixed-use warehouse district to the North. The new construction will reconcile pedestrian accessibility with adjacent surface parking. The project will also be introducing renewable energy sources to the site as well as adding a water reclamation system.
