24-011 Naples Pier Reconstruction - ITB

The purpose of the proposed project is to remove remnants of the old pier and rebuild it in the same location but stronger, higher, and more resilient to future storms and hurricanes. This requires a supporting structure of new concrete pilings, concrete bents, and beams, which are designed to remain in place even if a future storm removes the decking and superstructure. The walking surface will consist of IPE hardwood which made up the attractive and popular surface of the old pier. The new pier will be the same 1000’ length and 12’ width as the old pier but will have bump outs to accommodate benches with unobstructed viewpoints. The superstructure will be made up by two structures mid-way and one at the end of the pier with iconic Polynesian roof lines that differentiate Naples Pier from all others in Florida.  
A site visit to the Naples Pier located at the west end of 12th Avenue South will take place directly after the Non-Mandatory Pre-Bid.  Prospective Bidders are strongly encouraged to attend.
