Interpretive exhibits will be concentrated in areas open to the visiting public. Utilities and infrastructure will need to be developed. The development involves 40 acres in the northwest quadrant of a larger 120-acre, protected parcel. Sensitive treatment of the developed area and methods to control impact upon the adjacent protected areas is part of this undertaking. The project consists of, but is not limited to, the stabilization, rehabilitation, and preservation of the following (note: all square footages (sf) listed are approximate):Installation of a rock garden to its historic contextSelective demolition and the historic preservation of a 5000 sf ranch houseThe rehabilitation of a 1500 sf existing bunkhouse and the addition of approx. 600 sf to create a new 2100 sf administration building.The preservation of a 2100 sf barnThe stabilization of a 120 sf ice houseThe design completion and fabrication of interior and exterior interpretive exhibits The project also consists of, but is not limited to, the new construction of (note: all square footages (sf) listed are approximate):Extensive site improvement work (grading, vehicular and pedestrian hardscape, utilities and infrastructure, fencing, tortoise habitat fencing, landscape, etc.) of the 40 acre siteA 4300 sf research, classroom, lab facilityA 7700 sf bunkhouse with kitchen facilityA 300 sf campground pavilionA 1200 sf caretaker residence and garage structureA 900 sf maintenance facilityA 120 sf blacksmith shop This is an educational facility dealing with environmental themes.
