Budget estimate

$600,000 – $1,200,000

The IFB does not disclose a contract ceiling, but the scope (demolition, new shelter, playground equipment, storm‑water improvements) for a city park typically ranges between $500,000 and $2,000,000. Considering material costs for playground equipment, civil works, and prevailing‑wage labor, a reasonable ball‑park estimate would be roughly $600k on the low end (minimal equipment, straightforward site) up to $1.2 million on the high end (premium equipment, extensive drainage work, and higher labor rates).
