The file is a GIS parcel map image (GIS_Parcel_Map_812_Barnum_Ave.jpg) related to a state and local contract opportunity for the Remington Arms Site Redevelopment, issued by the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut. The City's Office of Planning and Economic Development is seeking proposals from qualified developers for the acquisition and redevelopment of three specific sites: 812 Barnum Avenue, 889 Barnum Avenue, and the Remington Shot Tower. These sites comprise the former Remington Arms Munitions Factory complex, which was first constructed in 1867 and operated until 1986. Developers can propose to acquire and develop any single site or combination of sites, with the requirement to explain project phasing if multiple sites are involved.

The City seeks redevelopment proposals that align with local zoning regulations and the Plan of Conservation and Development, with a focus on creating dynamic commercial, recreational, or clean industrial spaces. The goal is to generate high-quality jobs and economic development opportunities. The sites, which were previously industrial and have since been demolished except for the Shot Tower, are now ready for redevelopment. Proposers must meet municipal, state, and federal practices and requirements. The RFP allows for flexible development approaches, encouraging innovative proposals that can transform these historically significant parcels into productive urban spaces that contribute to Bridgeport's economic revitalization.
