The Urban Redevelopment Authority of Pittsburgh is seeking developers and/or development teams to submit a proposal for the purchase and redevelopment of the Office of Municipal Investigations (OMI) Building site located at 2608 Penn Avenue in the Strip District neighborhood of Pittsburgh. The goal of this Request for Proposals (RFP) is to select a qualified and economically viable development proposal for the redevelopment of the Property. Proposals should be mindful of the Strip District Neighbors (SDN) Design Guidelines, which seek developments that respect the rich heritage of the Strip District, with sensitivity to site context and history. • The Property is 0.18 acres, or 7,650 square feet, and is zoned RIV-IMU (Riverfront Industrial Mixed-Use District). • The Property was formerly utilized as a police station and comprises two floors and a full, unfinished basement. • The Redeveloper is responsible for gaining all necessary approvals and entitlements for their development. • The URA encourages proposals that enhance the pedestrian experience and create a publicly engaging ground floor. • Active ground-floor uses such as retail or other community-oriented programming are strongly encouraged to foster continuous street-level activity. • The URA requires that all Respondents demonstrate and document a good faith effort to meet or exceed the City’s 12% minority workforce inclusion goal for all URA projects with total project costs of $500,000 or more.
