City opens bids on work for new American General Headquarters
Bowen Engineering submitted the lowest of three bids on demolition and utilities work to ready the site of a new $20 million building in American general’s Downtown headquarters complex.
One of the bids opened Tuesday is expected to result in a contract award by the Evansville, IN Redevelopment Commission Jan. 17.
Infrastructure and the 135,000 square foot office structure are part of the Evansville-based financial services company’s plan, announced in July, to invest $35 million in expansion. The company said it will result in addition over five years of 150 full-time positions to a current work force of 1,400.
The Bowen bid was $1,599,211. Deig Bros. Lumber and Construction submitted a bid of $2,055,442 on the preliminary project, and Industrial Contractors’ bid was $2,194,000. Bids were opened in a special commission meeting Tuesday.
Bids were for demolishing the Mel Kay Electric building, relocating water and sewer lines and building new infrastructure.
