This RFP is for the fabrication and installation of an interactive dedication Element at La Verde Park in Kyle, Texas. Lionheart Places has developed design intent drawings for this interactive element that are included in this RFP as an attachment. The final concept design is available at cityofkyle.com/rfps. The Element combines a split limestone block seating element with a mix of metal etched dedication text and pin set lettering. A hidden irrigation bubbler flows down a channel cut in the stone to provide an interactive element for the person seated on the bench and connect to the story of aquifer recharge that inspired the design of La Verde Park.

The park is a 1.67 acre urban destination surrounded by mixed use development of office, retail, and residential.
