Wilson Downtown Development Corporation has released a request for proposal (RFP) for the Orange Hotel.

Project Manager/Downtown Business Specialist Aramith Trimiar says Wilson Downtown Properties “is hoping to find someone who is experienced in historic preservation, adaptive reuse, and capital structuring, especially as it pertains to the use of Historic Tax Credits. Additionally, we would like to work with someone that will honor the rich history of the property, maintain its cultural integrity, and have an end-use that can be a catalyst to the redevelopment of the area in general.”

Here’s a peek at the RFP, which can be found in full here.

The current floor plan. (I think. Where are the bathrooms?)

A possible renovated layout creating four apartments.
