Corner buildings are the gateways to neighborhoods. The City of Newburgh is looking to improve this corner of Liberty Street and South William by asking for RFP’s to develop 41 Liberty Street. It has been a long-neglected corner on this burgeoning block. They are seeking a qualified commercial owner-occupant with for-prof use – that will create jobs in the community and add tax revenue to the City.
It would be amazing to see development south on Liberty, just around the corner for 109 South William Street, slated for a new restaurant and venue space.
All responses must be received by Monday, April 30, 2018 by 4:00 pm.
The RFP is available on BidNet or on the City of Newburgh, Department of Planning and Development’s RFQs & Property RFPspage.
Please contact the Office of Planning and Development with questions, 845-569-9400 or planning@cityofnewburgh-ny.-
“…add tax revenue for the city”. Because this time is different? Expand on the Liberty Street corridor concept and pave a loop from River Rd. up Renwick & S. William, down Liberty to Bdwy. Newburgh is running out of time. For those not paying attention, the demographic shift in NY is kicking the state’s butt and the elimination of SALT has left the empire state without any clothes. Apparently being the nation’s corporate welfare darling hasn’t paid off. One would think anyway. The “taxpayer” needs protection… https://www.midhudsonnews.com/News/2018/April/18/tax_impact_Cuomo-18Apr18.html
Wrong taxpayer…https://www.nfib.com/assets/Economic-Effects-of-an-Employer-Compensation-Expense-Tax-on-New-York-Small-Businesses.pdf So how does an additional 5% payroll tax ‘preserve Newburgh’s own plan for economic competitiveness’? Heck, how does it preserve an individual’s plan? Something for the city council to think about before Monday’s meeting resolutions. Take heed to the comptroller’s warning, she’s too smart to be your scapegoat.
