Crawford Bay Development RFQ
RFQ Responses are due on May 7 at 5pm ET.
Once-in-a-lifetime opportunity
A new mixed-use destination on the Elizabeth River designed to serve residents, revitalize Portsmouth’s unique, historic waterfront; and welcome visitors.
The City of Portsmouth will be soliciting offers from qualified development teams to redevelop the Crawford Bay waterfront site in Downtown Portsmouth. This approximately 6-acre site is a rare opportunity to introduce new housing, hotel, dining, and public waterfront spaces to the heart of the city while honoring Portsmouth’s history, character, and scale.
Guided by adopted plans and community priorities, the City is taking a thoughtful, transparent approach to shaping a redevelopment opportunity that benefits residents, supports local businesses, and contributes to a vibrant downtown waterfront.
