The City of Springfield is requesting proposals for development and purchase of property located at Rear Dwight Street (04222-0086). Rear Dwight Street consists of approximately .45 acres of vacant land abutting Interstate 291. Property is being sold "as is," and the City makes no representation regarding the environmental condition and will require the proposer to assume responsibility for these conditions with respect to possible reuse.

Location and Site Information
The parcel (referred to hereafter as the "Subject Land") is located at Rear Dwight Street in the Metro Center neighborhood of Springfield, Massachusetts. The site contains 19,621 square feet (.45 acres). The parcel is located adjacent to Interstate 291.

For the City of Springfield's title, see Judgment in Tax Lien Case no. 10 TL 140522 recorded in the Hampden County Registry of Deeds at Book 18884, Page 433.

Acquisition Terms
All Proposers are instructed that the property is for sale. Approval of sale is at the sole discretion of the City. The successful buyer will merge the "Subject Land" with an adjoining parcel within one year from date of purchase.

The full fair market value (FFMV) of Subject Land is $147,200.00. However, the city will consider all offers that deviate from the fair market sale price as long as a compelling explanation is provided. The acceptance of a sale price other than the fair market sale is at the sole discretion of the city.

Development Concept
Rear Dwight Street:
The City is most interested in development proposals that continue to use the property for surface parking and is consistent with uses in an Industrial A zone.

Conditions precedent to conveyance shall include that all necessary testing, reporting, abatement measures and filings under MGL 21E are acknowledged and approved by DEP. Also, that the City of Springfield's Office of Planning and Economic Development has approved the site plan, landscaping, elevation and signage plans for the development.
