Madison accepting bids to create new town center Bethlehem tree By ANT<strong>HO</strong>NY WARREN Sun Staff Writer PLANS ARE still a go for a project that will create a new retail and recreational hub in Madison’s downtown corridor. City officials are slated to open bids for the Madison square on January 18. Community Development Director Alan Hoops said the city has had a good bit of interest in the project, and expects three or four bids to be submitted for consideration. Originally, the city, along with the Madison Square Redevelopment Authority (MSRA), was planning to open bids in mid-August. However, the deadline for proposals was extended at the request of two or three interested parties. Since the deadline was extended, Hoops said the city has received several new inquiries into the project. Most of those showing interest are from out of state. “I had someone get in touch with me last week, and I sent him an RFP,” he said. An RFP is a request for proposals. The square will be located on roughly 17 acres of land bordered by Madison Avenue, U.S. 51, Main Street and Magnolia Street. MSRA purchased the property on behalf of the city years ago, with plans to develop it in the future. Madison city officials recently brought on Memphis architect Henry Frank Ricks to draw up a master plan for the property. According to a copy of the 25-page master plan, Ricks envisions a project with professional and retail space, spots for restaurants, a 120-room boutique hotel and a 25,000square-foot specialty grocery store. The square will also include a large public green space, a main street retail and restaurant district and an area for city government. Space will be set aside for a 1,600-seat performing arts center, a public library and an 18,000-square-foot city hall. Tulane University, which is currently locat- ed in part of the old Madison Square Center for the Arts, will be given an opportunity to build a permanent facility on the square once its lease expires. Right now, the New Orleans school is operating a satellite campus in the city as part of a three-year pilot program. If the program is successful, the school will consider opening a permanent satellite campus in the city. A MAJOR FOCAL point of the development will be a grassy area called the town square. Ricks states that the spot “is both the geographic center of the urban core and heart of the property.” The plan states that it could include not only green space, but a civic pavilion and amphitheater, making it perfect for meetings and outdoor events like concerts, picnics, and arts and crafts fairs. Another public park would be located on the northeast corner of the property near Main Street. In addition to green space, Ricks proposes a new main street district, to run along a street parallel to Highway 51. The street would be a pedestrian-friendly retail and restaurant hub, with large sidewalks, trees and landscaping, as well as pedestrian benches, street lamps, directory kiosks and signage. Ricks said both national and local retailers and restaurateurs would be included in the mix. RFPs were issued by the city in July. Developers interested in submitting a proposal are asked to include a statement that says whether or not they are planning to lease or buy the property; a description of the development team; a statement of qualifications; and details about their vision for the project. Hoops said the RFPs will give the city an idea of what types of retailers builders hope to bring to the area. “We’re not interested in just any retailer, it has to be a right fit for Madison,” he said.
