PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project involves construction of a new indoor tennis practice facility and will be built on the University's Southwest Campus adjacent to the new FSU Morcom Aquatics Center. The completed facility will house (4) - (6) NCAA/USTA compliant practice courts with support spaces and may also operate to provide for competition in times of inclement weather. It is anticipated that the facility will share some site amenities, such as parking, access drives, and storm water facilities with the Aquatics Center. Construction materials and methods are anticipated to facilitate training and competition for highly competitive events and will likely include covered or enclosed long span construction, natural ventilation, and indirect lighting, while promoting identity of the facility as a part of Florida State University. Commensurate with the University's goal to support environmentally responsible construction, this project will seek LEED certification. It is anticipated that a GMP will be requested at completion of 50% construction documents, and the Construction Manager may also be asked to help develop cost models for future facility upgrades. At the University's discretion and dependent upon available funding, the Construction Manager may be requested to provide a GMP to include facility upgrades. Construction is anticipated to begin March 2009 and be complete by January 2010.
