Description
The City of Indianapolis is seeking expressions of interest from qualified firms to propose adaptive‑reuse, mixed‑use redevelopment concepts for the historic Former Indiana Women’s Prison site (approximately 15.6 acres). Respondents must demonstrate experience in historic preservation, community‑engaged planning, and financing for large‑scale urban redevelopment, and must submit a concise, searchable PDF that includes qualifications, proposed uses, financial analysis, community‑engagement strategy, and an MBE/WBE/VBE participation plan. A mandatory site tour is required, and all submissions must be accompanied by a signed acknowledgement of the addenda.
• Deliver a conceptual master‑plan that preserves historic structures while introducing residential, commercial, cultural, and hospitality uses.
• Provide qualifications, key personnel bios, and up to four relevant project references.
• Include a high‑level financial feasibility analysis (capital sources, uses, and potential funding strategies).
• Outline community‑engagement and local‑partner participation plans, as well as diversity‑inclusion commitments.
