1.01 Invitation

Lancaster City Alliance (LCA), in partnership with the City of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, Lancaster County Convention

Center Authority and LNP Media Group, Inc. (Property Owners), is inviting development teams with experience in

urban mixed-use real estate development to submit proposals for the redevelopment of three major properties at a

key intersection in Downtown Lancaster, Pennsylvania. At the southern edge of a our vibrant Downtown Center and

adjacent to our six-year old convention center and Marriott Hotel, LCA and the Property Owners see this as a unique

opportunity to create a catalytic redevelopment project to support and expand our growing city core, augment the

Convention Center development and serve to create a connection from Downtown to the southern half of the City.

LCA will manage the RFP process on behalf of the Property Owners.

Lancaster City is proud of its rich architectural heritage while welcoming complementary yet new and innovative

thinking as the City continues to evolve. The sites under consideration offer both adaptive reuse opportunities of

significant historic structures and a rare opportunity to develop a catalytic new construction project in a very dense

urban environment.

Development proposals will be considered for each property individually, but development interests are encouraged to

consider all properties together as one comprehensive project - even if phased.

Lancaster City Alliance

The intersection of Queen Street and Vine Street as well as the 100 block of South Queen Street has long been considered a great opportunity to bridge the gap between the Downtown Core and the southern half of Lancaster City. Queen Street serves as the main north corridor through the City and thus is the gateway into Downtown.

The northeast corner of the important intersection of Queen and Vine Streets is anchored by the Lancaster County Convention Center and Lancaster Marriott at Penn Square. Approaching seven years old, this convention center boasts 94,000 SF of meeting space and a 300 room flagship hotel. Recently a 105 room addition to the hotel has been announced. Sharing this corner is the former home of abolishionist and Lancaster native, Thaddeus Stevens, and his Kleiss Tavern. Recently the facades were beautifully restored as well as over 100,000 compelling pieces of archeological evidence unearthed, many pointing to possible Underground Railroad activity. Under the direction of LancasterHistory.org, by the year 2020, this important anchor of Lancaster and national history will be completely transformed and open to the public. Three major sites occupy the remaining corners and all have recently become available for redevelopment creating a unique and exciting opportunity for the City and the appropriate development team(s). While each site is owned separately, the owners share the same vision for this critical section of Downtown and the City; a vibrant mixed-use development with active first floor uses are key in the goal of expanding Downtown to the south.

With the recent availability of the former production facility owned by LNP Media Group, Inc., there is a unique opportunity for larger scale catalytic development on a site that could accommodate any number of uses as outlined in the City’s Economic Development Strategy (see section 2.03). This could include a hotel and additional meeting space to complement the Lancaster County Convention Center as well as office uses and/or residential. This site also enjoys several historic buildings with rich character that offer unique opportunities. The newer printer facility is of a solid foundation that could support several stories of redevelopment. This site also includes an open lot prime for additional new construction.

The Southern Market Center, owned by the City of Lancaster, is a historic gem that while divided into several office uses over the last decades presents a great opportunity to be brought back to its original “open plan.” Formally a public market, this building could accommodate exciting uses including entertainment, retail, restaurant and offices. Ideally the first floor would be activated with retail, restaurant or other public uses.

The Lancaster County Convention Center Authority (LCCCA) owns the long vacant historic Swan Hotel with adjacent parking lot and carriage house. The first floor of the Swan Hotel has long been envisioned as a restaurant and the parking lot is ideal for new infill construction that could also incorporate the upper floors of the Swan and the carriage house.

Site A – LNP Media Group, Inc. Site

Ownership: LNP Media Group, Inc.

Description: Until recently, this site was the printing facility for LNP (the Lancaster daily newspaper). The site is

comprised of four structures. Three of the structures are of some historic significance; the Jasper Yeates House, the

VonderSmith Building, and the original printing press/warehouse. The fourth structure on the parcel was the new

printing and production facility built in the early 1980s. While of varying historic significance, these buildings all offer

large floor plates, significant ceiling heights, and solid foundations and structure, making them ideal for adaptive reuse

with several additional floors. The site also includes a large 30,400 SF area that serviced the loading docks and is ideal

for new construction.

This site is adjacent to a 755 space parking garage under the same ownership and directly across the street from the

exhibit floor of the Lancaster County Convention Center. This offers a great opportunity for complementary meeting

space and/or additional hotel rooms as part of a mixed use project.

Lot Size: Total lot Size is approximately 70,000SF (1.61 acres) and includes 4 structures and a 30,400 SF

loading area at the NW corner of Queen and Vine Streets.

Description: Built in 1888 in the Queen Anne Style, this building displays ornamental terra cotta and decorative

brickwork, and is anchored by two pyramidal towers. The building was designed by Lancaster architect C. Emlen Urban.

Property Value/Price Considerations

100 S. Queen Street is currently assessed at $836,900 and the City of Lancaster’s asking price is $1,200,000. Please

note that while the property is owned by the City of Lancaster, the property will be transferred to the City’s

Redevelopment Authority for sale to the selected Development Team. The City of Lancaster is not interested in equity

partnerships and prefers to sell only.

See Exhibit C for available floor plans

Site C – Swan Hotel Site (see Exhibit C)

Ownership: Lancaster County Convention Center Authority

Description: Located directly across the street from the 6 year old Lancaster County Convention Center and

beautifully restored facades of Thaddeus Stevens’ and Lydia Hamilton’s homes, the Swan was constructed as a private

hospital and tavern in 1824 by Dr. Clarkson Freeman who lived next door. By the 1840s, the individual rooms made for

an easy conversion of the building into a hotel and tavern. It remained in use as a bar until 1995. The building has been

vacant since awaiting the right redevelopment opportunity to complement the Convention Center and history of the

area. The site also includes the roofless remnants of a historic carriage house, actually two small buildings, separated

from the hotel by a small parking lot.

Structure A: Swan Hotel (101 South Queen Street)

Year Built: 1824

Building Footprint: 1,610 SF

Building Total SF: 6000 SF

Levels: Basement – 1,610 SF

1s - 1,610 SF

2n - 1,610 SF

3rd – 1,200 SF (approx.)

Current Uses: Vacant

Structure B: Carriage House

Year Built: 1867

Building Footprint: 3,000 SF (2 structures)

Building Total SF: 3,000 SF

Levels: 1st – 3,000 SF

Current Uses: Vacant

Property Value/Purchase Considerations

The properties are assessed at $147,700 and the Lancaster County Convention Center Authority (LCCCA) will entertain

purchase offers as well as consider equity partnerships in the right development scenario.

The Swan Hotel site will only be considered as a single development opportunity. Subdivision of the property will not

be considered.

Ownership remains interested in the development of additional convention quality hotel rooms to support the

Lancaster County Convention Center on this site or within close proximity to the Center and the ability to develop this

site hinges on the development of additional hotel rooms. If no hotel rooms are proposed for the other sites under

this RFP, then ownership has the expectation that at least 100 convention quality rooms be incorporated into the

response for the Swan site. Ownership would look more favorably on a larger number of proposed rooms, but that

would likely require the incorporation of adjacent properties not covered in this RFP. See section 2.04 for information

regarding a recent LCCCA market study produced by Convention Sports & Leisure in support of additional hotel rooms.

See Exhibit D for historical information and survey details

Lancaster is very dense and compact, made up of very walkable neighborhoods boasting a diverse population of

60,000 (and growing). It is also the county seat of Lancaster County which has a total population of 525,000. It is also

home to over 200 retailers, galleries and attractions in the core Downtown and almost 100 places to eat, drink and be

entertained.

A major employment center of 40,000 workers, Lancaster City has long been the location of choice for regional and

international headquarters such as Fulton Bank, LNP Media Group, Inc., Steinman Communications and Auntie Anne’s

Pretzels. Increasingly, Lancaster is also preferred location for a growing number of smaller entrepreneurial companies

looking for a vibrant urban experience for their employees and clients.

2.02 State of the City

Lancaster City has seen tremendous growth over the last decade. Not only is the population growing, but Downtown

and outlying areas have seen over $1.5 billion in public and private investment over the last eight years. This includes a

net of 160 new or expanded stores, attractions and restaurants in the central core and northern portions of the City.

Significant office and residential development continues throughout the City. Since 2013, several companies moved to

the City bringing with them over 500 new employees. In addition, existing companies and institutions have announced

expansions that will result in an additional 500 jobs.

The housing market is strong with more than 200 new market rate apartments, single family homes and condos have

coming on line since 2012 with another 300 units under development. Waiting lists for new rental product are

common as development continues in historic warehouse conversions and in new construction projects throughout

the City.

Entrepreneurial spirit is very high with many young adults setting up shop and calling Lancaster City home. Empty

nesters are also attracted to the vibrancy of the City, the strong housing stock, walkability and great cultural

attractions and restaurants.

A very strong and expanding arts community is based here with over 90 venues throughout the City which helps to

attract the one million visitors each year to our galleries, attractions, independent retailers and venues such as Clipper

Magazine Stadium and the Lancaster County Convention Center.

Section Five

About the LCA

Formed on July 1, 2013, the Lancaster City Alliance is the culmination of two strong and vital Lancaster City

organizations that consolidated into a single, more powerful, force. The James Street Improvement District and the

Lancaster Alliance joined forces into a single community-service organization offering 30 years of experience in

community and economic development. With a talented staff and a core group of community and business leaders,

the LCA is dedicated to the City of Lancaster, Pennsylvania and serves to improve the City’s financial stability, public

safety, and quality of life.

As an alliance we align with like-minded economic-development and community organizations—jointly identifying key

initiatives, linking stakeholders, allocating resources, and acting as a catalyst—to produce extraordinary outcomes for

the future benefit and utility of the City. The LCA serves the people of the City, crossing residential and commercial

lines to include anyone who lives, learns, works and plays in Lancaster. In collaboration with neighbors; public, private,

and non-profit partners; and other entities focused on the City of Lancaster, the Lancaster City Alliance ensures a

clean, safe and vibrant environment.

The LCA also manages the Lancaster Downtown Investment District Authority (DID). The DID began operation in 1992

when property owners within the core Downtown granted approval for its formation and to support the efforts

through an additional property tax assessment. Since that time, property owners, civic leaders and area businesses

have supported DID programs to ensure that Downtown Lancaster is safe, clean, attractive and vital.
