City advancing on Visitor Center project

The City of Fredericksburg is looking for qualified and experienced architectural firms to provide design and construction drawings for a new Visitor Center downtown.

The Visitor Center will be located on the first floor of the Executive Plaza at 601 Caroline Street. That space is currently vacant. The City’s goal for the project is to provide outstanding visitor experiences and create one of the best Visitor Centers in the Mid-Atlantic.

The City, working with Staunton-based Frazier Associates, previously came up with a preliminary vision for the space (you can see that here). The selected architectural firm will help turn that vision into reality.
