On January 2, the Governors Island Preservation and Education Corporation (GIPEC), a subsidiary of the Empire State Development Corporation, issued two separate RFPs for the redevelopment of Governors Island. The RFPs, both due on January 23, are for Development Advisory Services and Master Planning Services. The Development Advisory Services RFP seeks assistance with the selection and ongoing negotiations with a master developer, and the Master Planning Services RFP intends to choose a firm for the design of the site plan and development guidelines for the entire 150-acre island.
