INVEST S/W Requests for Proposals (RFPs)
Through the Department of Planning and Development (DPD), the City of Chicago offers to qualified development teams and nonprofit organizations the opportunity to submit proposals for opportunity sites in the INVEST South/West neighborhoods.
An archive of past DPD RFPs, including INVEST South/West RFPs, is available for review online.
More information on active RFP projects can be found on the DPD RFP and RFQ website.
Through this RFQ, DPD seeks to identify design and development teams to revitalize three vacant sites in Roseland. Short-listed applicants will form developer-designer teams that will each receive a $25,000 stipend on proposals that align with previous community visioning sessions for each location, including the former Gately's Peoples Store, the Roseland Theater building and land adjacent to a planned CTA Red Line station. Winning RFQ teams are expected to be announced this spring.
