Description
The City of Raleigh is issuing a Request for Information (RFI) to gather ideas and insights for the redevelopment of the former DMV site at 1100 New Bern Avenue and associated parcels. The city seeks to understand development feasibility, appropriate uses, and community-aligned design approaches for the site. Respondents can address either the main site, state street parcels, or both, and should aim to contribute innovative ideas, share relevant information, and offer input to shape the redevelopment process.
Key points to consider include:
• Providing a conceptual development program for multifamily housing with a substantial affordable component
• Including parking ratios and other assumptions
• Submitting evidence of financial feasibility
• Discussing phasing strategies and design and land use considerations
• Identifying community priorities and concerns for the state street parcels
• Describing how the parcels could complement the main site development
