The Project will be located to the south of the existing SETLC facility at 701 Mississippi Avenue SE, Washington, DC 20032. A new address will be created for Project facility. The existing SETLC facility is located at 701 Mississippi Avenue SE, Washington, DC 20032. The space includes a 48,000 square foot indoor facility that houses six (6) indoor tennis hard courts with spectator seating and general use areas such as a fitness room, computer room, library, multi-purpose room, and kitchen. Additionally, the center includes six (6) outdoor hard courts, one (1) outdoor claytech court, a playground, and a parking area. The new proposed expansion site consists of approximately 4.5 acres and is located to the south of the existing SETLC. It is situated between Oxon Run and Valley Avenue SE to the north and south and Wheeler Road SE and 9th Street SE to the east and west. The new expansion will include an indoor tennis facility housing three (3) indoor tennis hardcourts along with general use areas such as restrooms, locker rooms, office space, and multi-purpose room.

A pedestrian bridge will be required to span Oxon Run and link the existing SETLC to the new expansion site. The Contractor will be required to provide a full range of services required to selectively demolish existing features as necessary and construct a new expansion facility to meet the Department's programmatic requirements.

Code 10-171.03. The Department hired MTFA Design + Preservation as the A/E for the Project and has started the design process so that by the time a Contractor is selected, the Contractor can provide design feedback and other preconstruction services prior to permitting. The Department expects that as the permit documents are completed by the A/E, the Contractor will obtain quotes from the trade subcontractors and provide a Guaranteed Maximum Price ("GMP"). Offerors are to base their proposals ("Proposals") on the Districts construction costs funding limitation for the Project. The Department has an approved construction budget of $14,200,000 for this Project. This figure includes construction and furniture, fixtures and equipment ("FF&E"). FF&E includes, but is not limited to signage, security equipment, AV equipment, IT equipment, DAS, telephones, and art. Low voltage cabling is included in construction costs. Offerors shall provide a Construction Contingency of 5% in the GMP for unforeseen conditions. The Proposal should also include an Owner Controlled Allowance in the amount of $500,000.00.
