Reuse of New Haven Green CT Transit Info Kiosk

Description

The City of New Haven’s (the “City”) Office of Economic Development has issued this Request for Proposals (“RFP”) to seek project proposals for the adaptive reuse and activation of the former CT Transit information booth located on the Chapel Street side (north side of Chapel Street) of the New Haven Green between Church Street and Temple Street, (the “Site”). The City is seeking to select a person or organization (“Respondent”) who presents a clear, feasible, and creative proposal that will transform the Site into an active and welcoming asset. Given its highly visible, transit-oriented location, the City is particularly interested in uses that enhance pedestrian experience, support transit riders, and contribute to the vibrancy and safety of the New Haven Green. Proposals may include, but are not limited to, small-format retail or convenience uses, arts and cultural programming, tourism-oriented services, or community service providers. The City will prioritize Respondents that demonstrate operational feasibility, a clear business or programming model, and the ability to maintain an attractive and well-managed presence at the Site. Given the small scale and physical constraints of the Site, rental terms are negotiable, and the City is open to flexible arrangements that support successful activation
