Larimer Scattered Sites RFI

The Urban Redevelopment Authority of Pittsburgh (URA) is seeking interest and project concepts from developers and development teams for the purchase and redevelopment of scattered site assemblages in the Larimer neighborhood. The goal is to create high-quality housing development, and potential development teams should demonstrate capacity and experience in raising private capital. The project involves two non-contiguous sites, with a total of 254 parcels, and the URA is looking for developers who can assemble larger residential footprints in close proximity to major employment and economic centers. • The available parcels are a mix of vacant lots and vacant structures, currently owned by the City of Pittsburgh and the URA. • The parcels are zoned for residential use, including Two-Unit Residential, Multi-Unit Residential, and Single-Unit Detached Residential. • The URA is seeking developers who can demonstrate a good faith effort to incorporate environmentally sustainable features and practices into their development plan. • The selected respondent will be required to enter into a written Disposition Contract with the URA, which will include terms and conditions such as bonding, costs, and covenants.
