Description
The NASA Langley Research Center is seeking expressions of interest from qualified public and private entities to partner in the development of land at the center. The goal is to establish the NASA Langley Aerospace Innovation District Hub, which will serve as a catalyst for discovery, collaboration, and innovation. The hub will link government, industry, academia, and community partners in a dynamic ecosystem. The center has identified approximately 325 acres across seven developable parcels for potential lease opportunities, along with an additional 150 acres across two parcels that carry environmental and archaeological considerations.
Some potential uses for the land include:
• National priorities in hypersonics, and efficient and secure interagency and international collaboration for aerospace technology development
• NASA’s missions and priorities through accelerated research, development, testing and evaluation of aerospace products
• Langley’s institutional needs through a publicly accessible gateway complex for academic consortium and international collaboration, public access to the history and natural beauty of the property, renewable energy farms, and temporary housing for visitors, foreign nationals, and students
