## Notice

Leicester City Council invites Tenders for the provision of a screen structure to the rear of the Corn Exchange The proposed Contract will be for eight months. We anticipate awarding to a single Supplier. The contract will deliver a new solution to mask the recently exposed elevation of the Corn Exchange which is in a state of disrepair, with the intention to enhance the appreciation of the Grade II* Listed building. The Corn Exchange is located at 1 Market Place, LE1 5HG. The proposed screen to the west facade of the Corn Exchange is to be constructed over the in-filled section of the old Indoor Market Centre basement. The main structure of the extension will 'stand-off' the Corn Exchange by 5.5m creating a back-of-house area that serves several functions: * to allow servicing and means of escape for the Corn Exchange; * providing storage space at ground floor to service the new square; * creating a mezzanine plant deck that will allow the relocation and rationalisation of the existing plant equipment; * allow the future option for a lift and means-of-escape to be provided for the first floor; * house the equipment associated with projection; * contain bin stores for Corn Exchange operations.
