The proposed contract listed here is unrestricted all responsible sources are encouraged to submit a proposal. The Smithsonian Institution Building (the Castle) designed by James Renwick Jr. was completed in 1855 to house all the Smithsonian operations. As each successive Secretary redefined the Smithsonian's mission and managed its growth, the Castle's interior spaces underwent many modifications. The Castle deserves special attention, not only because of its historic architectural and institutional significance, but also because it is the public's doorway to, and the symbol of, the Smithsonian Institution. The Smithsonian Institution Building, constructed of red Seneca stone was listed by the Secretary of the Interior as a National Historic Landmark in 1965, and listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1966. It is included within the National Mall Historic District.
