Scope of RFP

The City of Columbus is seeking proposals for the purchase and development of

35.57 (+/-) acres of vacant land located off Cusseta Road and Fort Benning

helped improve the quality of life of the community by building new housing and

adding new businesses. Some of the housing developments include the Baker

Village Revitalization, which will create 244 new apartment units, and the

Ambling Development, which is anticipating creating 250 units. In addition,

several transportation improvements are underway, such as a proposed four (4)

lane widening of Cusseta Road, which will help alleviate congestion problems

and will improve access to the area.

for interpretations that are more specific, color renderings, digitalization,

and other tools.
