Specifications include, but are not limited to: The City of Lorain is soliciting proposals to produce a vision for the redevelopment of the former Stoveworks Site. Situatedin central Lorain, this site was home to the National Vapor and Stove and Manufacturing Company whichbegan production in 1894 and remained an industrial manufacturing facilityuntil approximately 1981. This former manufacturing site,like many others in the industrial Midwest,is situated in the heart of awalkable residential neighborhood. The City of Lorain would like to see the site reimagined in a way that respects the history of the neighborhood and sews this vacant, derelict land back into the fabric of the neighborhood. The demolition of the site was funded through the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program and is under an interim slum and blight designation. Through this planning process we will engage the community and develop a plan for developing an affordable housing project that fitsthe current urban form.
