ELIOT PUBLIC RESTROOM RENOVATION

We have a need to update and renovate our public restrooms at Elliot. They get a good bit of use due to our two large playgrounds and access to an extensive field network.

ELIOT RECREATION CENTER IMPROVEMENTS

The Eliot Recreation Center is home to many of Brookline Recreation's Administrative staff and houses many community programs and services. The center is in need of renovations including an updated HVAC system, as well as utility and network infrastructure upgrades. The project includes an additional 1000 sq ft space build out over the current boiler room to accommodate a badly needed conference room as well as upgrades to the perimeter drains around the building. Historically, there have been drainage issues that have impacted the first floor during significant weather events.

SOULE-COURTYARD RENOVATION

Soule Early Childhood Education Center's philosophy supports nature, diversity, and discovery. This school is 100% cost recovery. We are looking to more formally design an outdoor classroom space, to help them achieve the mission. We currently utilize the Soule Courtyard for an outside classroom space, but it has fallen into disrepair and is in need of a capital improvement to re-design to make space more developmentally appropriate for the growing school. The project is in a space is approximately 3,100 square feet. Historically, during significant weather events, there have been drainage issues that have impacted the wood frame of outdoor space (Soule Structure). The project would start with removal of the current asphalt, assessing for appropriate drainage and assessing Soule building structure base for weather damage. Replacing the pavement with a more weather proof natural surfacing and materials. We expect $10,000 for feasibility, design and specs. We expect $75,000 for construction and $10,000 for equipment such as wood structure to frame the sand box and other equipment to enhance the usability of space. Areas of play would be designed.
