The New York City Economic Development Corporation (“NYCEDC”) requests expressions of interest in developing, operating and maintaining a food and/or beverage concession at the Café Building in MADE Bush Terminal Campus in Sunset Park, Brooklyn. Respondents may also express interest in developing the adjacent Administration Building (the “Admin Building”) as part of their business concept

The primary objectives for this RFEI are to:

1. Announce and promote the significant opportunity for food & beverage vendors to become an anchor tenant (the “Tenant”) for MADE Bush Terminal’s 43rd Street waterfront corridor.
2. Solicit prospective operators’ proposals for:
   a. Preferred approaches to the building’s design, renovation, and fit out.
   b. Preferred financial deal structures with NYCEDC once in operation.
3. Promote equitable access to opportunities by encouraging the participation of diverse businesses in the proposed development and operations of the Café Building.

NYCEDC will not issue any contracts based off responses to this RFEI. It is NYCEDC’s intent, however, to issue a subsequent Request for Proposals (“RFP”) from prospective operators that reflects the perspectives gained from this RFEI in the 2025 calendar year. Depending on the success of the RFEI, NYCEDC reserves the right to issue a targeted RFP that would limit eligibility for submissions to respondents of the RFEI.
