Prince George’s County released a request for proposals last week looking for a developer to plan and build out what it calls Campus Village, a mixed-use district on a 93-acre, wooded site it owns next to the Maryland Area Regional Commuter train station at BSU.
It comes after Maryland released its own RFP in August looking for a master developer of an adjacent state-owned site next to the station. That 4.6-acre site is made up of surface parking and undeveloped land. Development proposals were due Oct. 14.
Responses to the RFP for Campus Village are due Jan. 30. The Revenue Authority of Prince George’s County has scheduled a press conference for Friday to further discuss the Campus Village solicitation.
For Campus Village, the county is looking for a mix of uses, including “diverse housing options,” retail, office, space related to university uses, and community amenities.
The solicitation envisions “walkable, mixed-use communities” with “active ground floors” that have connections to nature-centric elements of the area like the trail network.
