Scope Of Work
The Numismatic Gallery, a Design/Bid/Build Project, entailed the Fit Out of a vanilla space to create this new Gallery/Exhibit. The project included fire suppression, electrical, mechanical, drywall, paint, suspended ceiling and carpentry trades. The project was performed at the Museum of American History on the National Mall. The gallery that was renovated is used for a historic coin (numismatic) collection. The coin collection is priceless. The fire suppression system installed was designed with the preservation of the coin collection as a top priority should there be an event. Coordination with the museum curators, as well as museum security, was critical, given the nature of the work, and the fact the that the remainder of the museum remained operational during construction.
