Feb 1 | Deadline for proposals for 1234 Good Hope Parcels

REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS (RFP)

1234 Good Hope Road SE

Release Date: September 30, 2021

Submission Deadline: February 1, 2022

The Government of the District of Columbia (the “District”), through the Office of the Deputy Mayor for Planning and Economic Development (“DMPED”), is releasing this Request for Proposals (“RFP”) as it seeks to receive proposals (each, a “Proposal” and collectively, “Proposals”) from individuals and/or teams (each, a “Respondent” and collectively, “Respondents”) for the redevelopment of District-owned land consisting of Lots 54, 56, 858, 859, 860, 862, and a portion of 865 and 866 in Square 5601 located at or adjacent to 1234 Good Hope Road, SE (the “Development Parcel”).

The Development Parcel is approximately 84,723 square feet in size and is currently vacant and unimproved land. It is within walking distance to the Anacostia Metro station and multiple bus stops. The planned 11th Street Bridge Park will provide a direct pedestrian connection across the Anacostia River to The Washington Navy Yard and adjacent Southeast Federal Center. The Development Parcel is also adjacent to the interchange of MLK, Jr. Avenue and I-295, providing convenient vehicular highway access both north and south and access to Capitol Hill and downtown across the 11th Street bridge.

The Development Parcel is zoned PDR-1, MU-7, and R-3 which permits a variety of commercial and residential uses. Redevelopment of the site may incorporate a mix of uses including retail, commercial office, and multi-family and single-family housing. Given robust population growth and construction activity in the Southeast area, the site is a prime candidate for mixed use development built in conjunction with the new MLK Gateway commercial development across Good Hope Road in the Anacostia Historic District. Its location near transit and its proximity to Capitol Hill and the Southeast Federal Enter make it an attractive site prime for new investment.
