Schematic design work for the renovation of the Duke Energy Convention Center is complete and schematic design work for the new park being built on the former Millenium Hotel site will be finalized in the coming weeks. Additionally, the design team received approval to move on to the next phase of design.

Following a request for proposals, a local firm, TJ Dyer, Inc., was selected to serve as the Design-Assist Contractor for the building’s mechanical and plumbing systems. Another local firm, ESI, was also selected to serve as the Design-Assist Contractor for the building’s electrical systems.

Lastly, 3CDC followed up with minority- and women-owned subcontractors, as well as Union subcontractors, to develop a schedule for meeting with any group interested in learning more about the project to determine potential opportunities for collaboration.
