Buyer: Kelly Trammel Email: trammelk@detroitmi.gov to provide construction of a building addition, the addition is an approximate 9,000 square foot gymnasium that will be attached to the existing Farwell Recreation Center located on 2711 Outer Dr E. Detroit, MI 48234. This project will consist of expanding the existing Farwell Recreation Center by constructing a new gymnasium with restrooms which will provide new activities and sport programs for the residents. Farwell is currently 24,000 sq. ft. and the construction will consist of roughly 9,000 sq. ft. to include a gymnasium. The building was built in 2005 and the original plan was to include a gymnasium, but it was omitted in the plan due to budget. For many years, the community has provided consistent feedback requesting a gymnasium. Farwell is in District 3 in which has higher than average youth population density, but the existing center is mostly used by seniors due to lacking facilities to provide sports activities and youth centered programming. This alteration to the building will impact the existing park, therefore included in this proposal are site improvements including site work, irrigation, and landscaping. The goal is to create an inviting recreation center to encourage the community to use the center for sports, educational and art programs, as well as providing a space for community convening. The awardee is responsible to provide all services and scope indicated on the construction drawings.
