Six Connecticut firms responded to the request for qualifications Wednesday, including JCJ Architects of Hartford, part of a partnership of three firms that designed a $144 million Norwich schools restructuring plan in 2016 that was rejected by the City Council. But that plan was used extensively by a school facilities review committee that put together a recommended renovation/consolidation plan in August 2019. In addition to JCJ, Tecton Architects of Hartford, Silver/Petrucelli+Associates of Hamden, MGT Consulting of Tampa, Fla., Friar Architecture of Farmington, Drummey Rosane Anderson of South Windsor and Antinozzi Associates of Bridgeport submitted information to the city. The plan approved by the School Facilities Review Committee in 2019 proposed renovating as new the John B. Stanton, John Moriarty and Uncas elementary schools and building a fourth new elementary school for 300 to 600 students, preferably in the East Side area. All would house preschool through fifth grade.
