Description:

This workshop will be a follow-up to the discussion which took place on September 19th. Stakeholders will have an opportunity to discuss with the City/BPDA team elements that may inform the creation of Requests for Proposals ("RFP's") for the development of publicly held parcels within the PLAN: Dudley Square area. This interactive meeting will be focused on the following:
  • Review development building blocks and scenarios
  • Initiate discussion of design principles that relate to the physical aspects of development
  • Engage in exercises/discussion on program components (e.g. housing, commercial/office, cultural, etc.)
PLAN: Dudley Square is an initiative to think strategically about the types of uses and the scale of development best suited for the future of Dudley Square and Roxbury. The goals of this study are to provide an inclusive community engagement process, create an updated vision with the community, and establish an implementation plan that will lead to the issuance of RFPs for publicly-owned and vacant privately-owned parcels in Dudley Square.
