The City of Highland Park, Illinois ("City"), requests proposals from qualified firms to provide services consisting of updating the architectural information in five of the listed architectural resource surveys (both the inventories and the written summary reports) to reflect demolitions, new construction, and major alterations on properties that have taken place since their original drafting. New appreciation of certain architectural styles and trends may result in additional findings of significance within the survey area. A further objective is to ensure all survey information is available in digital form (collectively, "Services").
