Avenue Redevelopment Services

A government authority in Albany, Georgia is seeking a private-sector developer to acquire or otherwise obtain a property and complete its redevelopment into a productive, active use. The selected developer will be expected to invest private capital and deliver the project within an enforceable schedule that supports long-term activation of the site.

The developer will be responsible for the remaining due diligence, project financing, design, permitting, construction, tenanting or occupancy, and long-term operation of the completed project. The redevelopment is intended to return a vacant or underutilized property to active use, generate meaningful private investment, and establish a credible path to completion.

The project should create an active street-level presence, support pedestrian activity along the avenue, and complement surrounding downtown businesses, attractions, public spaces, events, and related development efforts. The authority also seeks a proposal that preserves downtown character while allowing enough design flexibility for a feasible project, expands the downtown mix of uses, and supports sustained daytime, evening, and weekend activity through clear acquisition, construction, completion, and activation milestones.

Questions are due by August 11, 2026, and a pre-bid meeting is scheduled for July 28, 2026.
