Description
This project, titled Sycamore Shelter Reconstruction,’ shall include, but is not limited to, all labor, materials, equipment, permits, coordination, testing, and incidental work necessary to reconstruct the historic Sycamore Shelter, located in Bloomington, Indiana at Lower Cascades Park. A large tree fell onto the historic Sycamore Shelter in May 2026, completely destroying the southern section of the structure. The shelter is constructed primarily of Indiana Limestone and is an important historic feature of Bloomington’s first public park. This project will reconstruct the destroyed southern section of the Sycamore Shelter in its original location and will be based on available historic documentation that will follow the design plans and specifications. The intent of the project is to restore the Sycamore Shelter to its pre-damage appearance while preserving the remaining historic fabric and ensuring the new portion is consistent with the original structure and the applicable standards for historic reconstruction.
