Purchase and Development of Elmont Norwell NHI Parcels

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 the 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 residential purposes under the city’s Neighborhood Homes Initiative.

This RFP is soliciting proposals for development of the parcels located at: 20 Elmont Street (Ward 14, Parcel 02401000), 24 Elmont Street (Ward 14, Parcel 02400000), 52 Elmont Street (Ward 14, Parcel 02393000), 143 Norwell Street (Ward 14, Parcel 01651000). 147 Norwell Street (Ward 14, Parcel 01652000); Dorchester

The sites, totaling approximately 15,384 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 https://boston.gov/dnd/rfps.

Completed RFP responses must be submitted electronically through DND’s online portal at https://transfer.boston.gov by November 9, 2021, no later than 4:00 PM. Please go to https://boston.gov/dnd/rfps for detailed instructions on how to submit RFP responses.

A Virtual Applicant Conference will be held on October 15, 2021, at 1:00 p.m. interested participants must email the Housing Development Officer anne.conway@boston.gov to register for the conference.
