BALTIMORE-The Maryland Stadium Authority has issued a request for qualifications for architects for the Baltimore City School District's $1.1-billion plan to renovate or in some cases replace school buildings here.
The RFQ is considered the first step toward moving forward with the 10-year capital program initiative, according to the Baltimore Business Journal. The RFQ is designed to select a pool of architects for the first round of 13 schools slated for renovation or replacement in the school district. Requests for proposals on the design and architecture from the selected teams are scheduled for release this spring. Construction bidding is expected to begin in late 2015.
The school system, which totals 18.5 million square feet, has only built 300,000 square feet of new school buildings in the city since 1996. See story in the Baltimore Business Journal.
