The City of Newburgh, Orange County, New York, requests the submission of proposals for the purchase and development of three City-owned vacant land parcels located at 140 & 146 Montgomery Street and 137 Smith Street in the City of Newburgh. Purchasers must propose a development that incorporates all three lots.
With a public elementary school located directly across Montgomery Street, two large housing developments situated immediately to the east and south, an array of parks, historic sites, houses of worship, and civic and educational buildings within a stone’s throw, and renewed energy from first-time buyers restoring historic homes in the vicinity, these combined corner lots represent a once-in-a-century development opportunity, and a unique design challenge. This three-parcel blank slate boasts walkable access to some of the city’s best outdoor dining, retail, and recreational opportunities, the waterfront commercial district, Newburgh-Beacon Ferry, boat launch, and connections to two interstates and the Newburgh-Beacon bridge.
