New York City Economic Development Corporation (NYCEDC) invites engineering and landscape design firms to submit proposals for the design of the United Nations Esplanade project.
The project, which is conceived as an in-water esplanade atop concrete deck supported on steel piles, will serve greenway users by providing a better connection for pedestrians, cyclists, rollerbladers, and park users who currently use on-street bike lanes. It will connect to existing sections of the Manhattan Waterfront Greenway, spanning East 41st to East 53rd Streets.
NYCEDC plans to select a consultant on the basis of factors stated in the RFP which include but are not limited to: the quality of the proposal, experience of key staff identified in the proposal, experience and quality of any subcontractors proposed, demonstrated successful experience in performing services similar to those encompassed in the RFP, and the proposed fee.
It is the policy of NYCEDC to comply with all federal, state and City laws and regulations which prohibit unlawful discrimination because of race, creed, color, national origin, sex, age, disability, marital status and other protected category and to take affirmative action in working with contracting parties to ensure certified Minority and Women-owned Business Enterprises (MWBEs) share in the economic opportunities generated by NYCEDC’s projects and initiatives. Please refer to the Equal Employment and Affirmative Compliance for Non-Construction Contracts Addendum in the RFP.
This project has Minority and Women Owned Business Enterprise (“M/WBE”) participation goals, and all respondents will be required to submit an M/WBE Participation Proposal with their response.
