Description:
The City of Tallahassee Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA), Florida is seeking Request for Proposal (RFP) responses from developers with demonstrated experience in developing pedestrian-oriented mixed-use projects in an urban environment. The CRA is in the process of acquiring two downtown parcels, the Firestone and Bloxham Annex properties; each parcel is approximately 2.65 acres. The properties are located near the State of Florida Capitol complex, numerous State office buildings, and within walking distance of Tallahassee’s central business district and several neighborhoods. The properties also overlook the northwest edge of the recently completed Cascade Park and Capital City Amphitheater, which have quickly become an 18-hour destination location and City’s the prime downtown park.
The CRA intends to sell the parcels and enter into an agreement with the buyer/developer to develop both properties as a single mixed-use development. The redevelopment concept envisioned by the CRA incorporates a mix of uses that may include residential, retail, restaurant and commercial uses; hospitality and entertainment opportunities; and arts and cultural-related uses. Financial assistance may be available from the CRA to offset the costs of required and/or desired redevelopment features and uses.
