The National Capital Planning Commission (NCPC) in Washington, DC is seeking consultant services to prepare A New Pennsylvania Avenue Plan for the 1.2-mile corridor between the White House and US Capitol, the adjoining 40 acres of public space, and the adjacent blocks and intersecting streets.

Federal and local stakeholders agree on a new vision to transform the corridor into an inspiring public space destination for the city and the country, offering an unforgettable visitor experience for spectacular events, a vibrant amenity for city living, and a place for communal joy.

The New Pennsylvania Avenue Plan will be developed through two coordinated RFPs:

• This first RFP is now live and focuses on the Implementation Program, which includes economic analysis, business case, stewardship, and public space and event programming. Deadline: Friday, October 20, 2023 at 12pm Eastern Time.
• The second RFP focuses on design of the corridor and public spaces and infrastructure modernization. Target release date: Fall 2023.

The two consultant teams will closely collaborate to prepare the New Plan that aspires to capitalize on the unique and iconic attributes of this special public space to enhance the economic competitiveness and improve the quality of life in the nation's capital.
