RE: Proposal for Historic Preservation Consultation Services -Industrial Survey
Dear Ms. Wright:
Please accept this Historic Preservation Consulting Services proposal for the survey of industrial
properties in Paris, TX. Based on our past discussions, previously-conducted surveys, and a
preliminary tour of sites, we believe we have an understanding of the scope involved.
Paris' historic industrial areas developed with relation to various rail. lines. We plan to spend one
day conducting a windshield survey of Paris to locate all industrial areas to be included in the
survey and to meet briefly with city representatives. The three primary areas we have identified
thus far for the industrial survey center on the city's two depots, Union to the west and Texas &
Pacific to the south, and the old Swift Poultry and Gulf Refrning complex at N, plain and Santa
Fe. If you believe there are additional areas of interest, please let us know and we will adjust this
proposal.
Scope and Deliverables
Architexas will provide an historic resource survey of the three above-mentioned areas as well as
any other areas identified with the windshield survey. The survey documentation will be
consistent with survey forms previously submitted for the Commercial, Church Street and Pine
Bluff Surveys and will include representative digital photography of the primary exterior
facade(s) of each building and of the surrounding context. Survey data will be entered into the
database previously developed for Paris survey projects.
The City will be provided with two hard copies of the printed survey forms and the electronic
data on compact disk. A letter summarizing our findings, and making recommendations for
historic designations in these industrial areas will accompany the final survey materials.
Schedule
Architexas proposed to complete this project within 60 days of being given anotice-to-proceed.
Fee
