(WASHINGTON, D.C.) – This Saturday, The Deputy Mayor’s Office for Planning and Economic Development (DMPED) will host an “OurRFP Public Workshop” to get community input for redeveloping the District-owned Parcel 42, located at the intersection of R St and 7th St NW in Ward 6.

Our RFP is a first of its kind community-based request for proposals (RFP) initiative launched by Mayor Bowser in March to engage residents on future neighborhood development. The goal is to establish a process that is transparent to residents and holds the District accountable for building a project that reflects the interests of the community. Parcel 42 is the first location for this unique pilot program.
