Purchase and Development - Upham’s Corner Arts & Innovation District – Municipal Lot Site

The City of Boston’s Department of Neighborhood Development (DND) sells city-owned properties to private buyers to encourage development in the City. One of the goals of DND’s land disposition is to reduce the amount of unused, neglected property existing in the City, placing it back on the tax rolls and adding to the inventory of mixed-income housing. DND’s land disposition process helps alleviate the housing crisis by enabling DND to offer buildable lots to home builders/developers to encourage construction of housing in Boston’s neighborhoods for a range of affordability levels.

This Request for Proposals (RFP) offers the public a chance to submit proposals on parcels of land owned by the City of Boston in the Dorchester neighborhood of Boston. The RFP seeks to secure development of the parcels for mixed-use purposes.

This RFP is soliciting proposals for development of the parcels located at: 18 Hamlet Street (Ward 07 / Parcel 03916000) and Hamlet Street (Ward 07 / Parcel 0394000).

The sites, totaling approximately 35,720 square feet of vacant land, are intended for sale by the City pursuant to the RFP. The properties are being offered as is. Proposals must include all parcels in this package.

The RFP package will be available on October 4, 2021 and can be downloaded by registering at boston.gov/dnd/rfps. Please go to boston.gov/dnd/rfps for detailed instructions on how to submit RFP responses.

Completed proposal applications must be submitted as instructed through DND’s online portal at https://transfer.boston.gov by December 23, 2021 no later than 4:00 PM.
