RFP for Installation and Operation of a Seasonal Indoor Recreation Facility
Brooklyn Bridge Park Corporation ("BBP") is issuing this Request for Proposals ("RFP") to solicit operators to construct, operate and maintain a seasonal enclosed, indoor recreation structure or bubble ("Concession Structure") to cover one sports field at Pier 5 in Brooklyn Bridge Park starting in the 2012 season. The Concession Structure will provide active recreation in Brooklyn Bridge Park during the cold weather months and create organized play opportunities for individuals, schools, athletic clubs and leagues. Pier 5 is approximately five acres and will house three multi-use artificial turf sports fields. The pier is located in the southern section of the park, and is accessible from a pedestrian path at Joralemon Street as well as the main greenway that travels through the park. A picnic peninsula will be located at
the Pier 5 uplands and will include picnic tables, small scale play equipment, and a seasonal snack concession during the spring, summer and autumn seasons.
