RFQ: Power District : Gainesville, Florida Redevelopment Opportunity. 17-acre private public partnership redevelopment opportunity. Extensive due diligence completed and public agency seeking development partner for site in Downtown Gainesville that is less than 1-mile from the University of Florida. After years of community engagement and advanced technical studies, the Gainesville CRA is seeking partners to redevelop 17-acres of vacant, former industrial land in Southeast Gainesville.
Through this process, the GCRA is seeking Statements of Qualifications from experienced developers/development teams. The primary purpose of this process is to pre-qualify private sector partners interested in transforming a series of underutilized parcels into an active, eclectic, pedestrian-friendly, and economically-sustainable district. Based on the results of this RFQ process, the GCRA anticipates crafting subsequent RFPs (Request for Proposals) that will trigger initial phases of redevelopment.
