THK was retained by the Bessemer Historical Society to develop a conceptual plan for the placement of several Steel Mill artifacts west of, and adjacent to, I-25 on the north side of the former CF&I Dispensary building.  THK developed a conceptual plan that focused on creating visibility of the large artifacts on display to travelers on I-25, improving visibility and circulation to the main museum door entrance, and incorporating circulation to and around the existing Mine Rescue Car.  The concept also focused on pedestrian spaces, interpretive opportunities, xeric landscape practices and the display and reuse of historic elements.

Following the development and approval of the concept design, THK was again retained to complete construction documentation and cost estimating for the construction of the Steelworks Park.  During the construction document phase, THK worked closely with the Historical Society Board of Directors and Staff as well as the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT). This project was required to undertake a CDOT review because funding for the park construction was obtained through an Intergovernmental Agreement.  To date, all required clearances have been obtained.

THK and the Historical Society also worked closely with the City of Pueblo to meet City development objectives.  The Construction documents and specifications were completed on time and on budget.  THK developed all bid documents and has assisted the Bessemer Historical Society in Bid Administration and CDOT coordination.  The project was completed in fall of 2017.
