Renovation of an educational facility in Frankfort, Kentucky. Completed plans call for the renovation of a educational facility.

ALL TECHNICAL QUESTIONS SHALL BE EMAILED TO THE ARCHITECT/ENGINEER OF RECORD FOR THIS PROJECT. ALL PROCUREMENT QUESTIONS SHALL BE DIRECTED TO BUYER OF RECORD FOR THIS PROJECT. The McCullin Hall Renovation at Kentucky State University encompasses a targeted exterior rehabilitation project that includes architectural, structural, and site improvements intended to enhance the building envelope, site accessibility, and user safety. Work will occur while the building remains occupied, requiring careful scheduling, particularly for window replacement which must be completed during academic breaks, when the building is not occupied. The renovation includes removal of deteriorated wood trim and replacement with PVC trim, full replacement of hollow metal doors with prefinished aluminum storefront systems, and installation of new exterior hardware. All existing doublehung windows will be replaced with fixed aluminum units, and interior blinds will be upgraded to roller shades. Masonry repairs include both brick and cast stone restoration, foundation wall crack repairs, and concrete patching. Unsafe exterior stairs will be demolished and rebuilt, and existing canopies and supports will be removed and replaced with wall-mounted awnings complete with associated gutters and downspouts. Additional work includes infilling a former entry and stair with masonry, landscape bed replacement along the south facade, and removal of encroaching trees and rusted handrails requiring cleaning and painting. Sitework includes new landscaping, walkways, curb ramps, guardrails, and ADA upgrades, with erosion prevention and sediment control measures integrated throughout construction. Due to ongoing building occupancy, construction will proceed in two primary phases: Phase 1 (Stairs, Doors, Facade Repairs, Pavement, and Site Work) will run from 9/1/2025 through 1/9/2026, and Phase 2 (Window Replacement and Related Patching) will occur during academic breaks when the dorms are not occupied, specifically 12/13/2025 - 1/9/2026 (Phase 2A), 3/9/2026 - 3/13/2026 (Phase 2B), and 5/9/2026-8/14/2026 (Phase 2C). The contractor must provide diligent site protection, staging coordination, and phasing compliance. All utilities and building access must remain operational unless otherwise scheduled and approved. Compliance with environmental standards, accessibility requirements, and coordination of work near sensitive infrastructure--including utility tunnels and existing landscaping--will be required. Contractors must be experienced with exterior facade work, concrete and masonry repairs, and ADA site upgrades in occupied campus environments.
