June 22, 2023 – Lower Hill Redevelopment team members, the Buccini Pollin Group and Carl Walker Construction, are excited to announce the beginning of the Block E development project.
Block E construction will take place in two phases. The first will include a 910-space parking garage and public safety station; the second is a 4,500-seat music venue. The project team aims to award an estimated $20 million in construction contracts to minority- and women-owned businesses across both phases. This session will provide information contractors with bid package information about phase one, the garage and public safety station. Contractors will be able to ask questions directly to the Lower Hill Redevelopment Team. Timeline

The project promotes the goals of the Community Collaboration and Implementation Plan, including the expansion of opportunities for minority and women business enterprises (“M/WBE”) and the promotion of local workforce development initiatives across the pre-development, construction, and operation of this mixed-use project. The development team will leverage significant progress made against these goals (over $43 million in commitments to date to nearly 45 MWBEs) during the development of the FNB Financial Center project on adjacent parcels in the Lower Hill District, which broke ground last Fall and is advancing ahead of the development on Block E.
