Description

New York City Economic Development Corporation (“NYCEDC”), on behalf of the City of New York (the “City”), is pleased to release a request for proposals (“RFP”) seeking proposals from qualified parties (“Respondents”) for the acquisition and development of an approximately 17,337 square foot site located between East 125th Street and East 126th Street along Second Avenue in East Harlem (Block 1790, Lots 25-31) (the “Site”).

B-East is the last of three development sites on the “B” block within the City-owned East 125th Street assemblage. Over the years since the 2008 ULURP approval, the East 125th Street Development has delivered new housing (including hundreds of income-restricted apartments), neighborhood retail, cultural/community space, open space, and a major health care facility nearby. B-East is intended to build on that momentum—advancing a long-anticipated redevelopment effort, delivering new housing opportunities and strengthening East Harlem’s East 125th Street corridor.

NYCEDC plans to select a Respondent on the basis of factors stated in the RFP which include, but are not limited to, program and design (including offering community-serving uses), financial and schedule feasibility, economic impact, and respondent qualifications and experience.

It is the policy of NYCEDC to comply with all Federal, State and City laws and regulations which prohibit unlawful discrimination because of race, creed, color, national origin, sex, age, disability, marital status and other protected category and to take affirmative action in working with contracting parties to ensure certified Minority and Women-owned Business Enterprises (MWBEs) share in the economic opportunities generated by NYCEDC’s projects and initiatives. Please refer to the Equal Employment and Affirmative Compliance for Construction Contracts Addendum in the RFP.

This project has a Minority and Women Owned Business Enterprise (“M/WBE”) participation goal of thirty percent (30%), and all respondents to the RFP will be required to submit an M/WBE Participation Proposal with their response. To learn more about NYCEDC’s M/WBE program, visit http://edc.nyc/opportunitymwdbe. For the list of companies who have been certified with the New York City Department of Small Business Services as M/WBE, please go to the https://sbsconnect.nyc.gov/certification-directory-search/.
