Moscow City Hall– the old post office building on the corner of Washington and Third Street — is looking to renovate its basement.
Before plans can be made to renovate, an assessment of the basement has to be conducted, said Parks and Recreation Director Dwight Curtis.
“It will let us know how feasible renovation is,” he said. “The assessment is not to exceed $8,000.”
Moscow City is looking at Castellaw Kom Architects, a firm that specializes in older structures, to complete the assessment, Curtis said. It will also help identify issues that will come with renovation before the city commits its resources.
“A thorough study will more clearly identify project parameters, identify costs and allow for more accurate budgeting” he said.
Curtis said the assessment will take three weeks to a month.
