The Halleck Industrial Development Site at Hunts Point RFP
The New York City Economic Development Corporation (“NYCEDC”), on behalf of the New York City Department of Small Business Services (“SBS”), is seeking qualified proposals to develop an unimproved parcel of land in the Hunts Point section of the Bronx under a long term ground lease. The parcel, known as the Halleck Industrial Development Site, is a prime, shovel-ready site for new construction of a modern industrial facility. The site benefits from its location within the Hunts Point Food Distribution Center, a City-owned industrial park comprising wholesale food distribution businesses and other food-related enterprises, as well as outstanding access to transportation, a strategic location within an industrial cluster, and minimal required site preparation.
In order to accommodate the specific needs and relocation timelines of potential industrial and food-related tenants NYCEDC will issue this RFP as an Open-RFP (“O-RFP”). The O-RFP is a rolling process that allows respondents to submit proposals at any time, which will be reviewed at quarterly Submission Dates. On any given Submission Date, NYCEDC may elect to close the O-RFP, to additional respondents. On any subsequent Submission Date, NYCEDC may, at its sole discretion, elect to re-open the O-RFP, and accept additional proposals.
The Scheduled Submission Dates are as Follows:
- August 31, 2011
- November 30, 2011
- February 29, 2012
- May 23, 2012
- September 19, 2012
NYCEDC plans to select a developer on the basis of factors stated in the RFP which include, but are not limited to: the quality of the proposal, experience of key staff identified in the proposal, experience and quality of any subcontractors proposed, demonstrated successful experience in performing services similar to those encompassed in the RFP, the uses proposed and the proposed ground Lease payments.
