45 Surface Parking Spaces within 2 blocks of Peter Rodino Federal Building

The General Services Administration (GSA) Public Buildings Service Region 2 is seeking to lease 45 surface parking spaces located within a defined area of Newark, New Jersey, bounded by Green Street to the north, McCarter Highway to the east, Chestnut Street to the south, and Mayor Kenneth A Gibson Boulevard to the west. The lease will serve various federal agencies occupying the Peter Rodino Federal Building and surrounding facilities. Key requirements include 24/7 access to the parking facilities, security measures such as fencing with electric gate or key card access, designated signage for 12 reserved spaces, and preferably a parking lot attendant staffed between 6:30 AM and 6:30 PM on weekdays and an electronically operated vehicle gate. All offered spaces must comply with government standards for fire safety, accessibility, seismic requirements, and sustainability, and cannot be located within the 0.2-percent-annual-chance floodplain. Additionally, all vendors must comply with Section 889 of the FY19 National Defense Authorization Act regarding telecommunications prohibitions. Expressions of interest are due by April 20, 2026, with occupancy targeted for May 1, 2026. Interested parties should contact Alexander Litvak, Leasing Specialist, at Alexander.Litvak@gsa.gov, with Gabriel Shuken serving as the Lease Contracting Officer.

This procurement carries no set-aside designations and allows for the parking requirement to be split among multiple lots if necessary. The lease term is structured as a firm 5-year commitment with no option periods or additional firm terms. While no specific award value or budget range is disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice, the scope encompasses all 45 parking spaces (exclusively surface parking with no structured parking component), of which 12 must be reserved for government use. The notice does not identify any incumbent contractors or potential predecessors. Prospective lessors should submit their expressions of interest directly to the GSA contact personnel listed, as this pre-solicitation phase precedes the formal solicitation and allows the government to gauge market interest and capability in the Newark parking market before issuing a full request for proposals.
