February 16, 2007 Awarding Authority City of New URBAN 257 Roxbury St. 617.427.1600 INVESTMENT Boston, MA 617.427.6222 fax ASSOCIATES, INC. 02119-1527 [email protected] February 16, 2007 Awarding Authority City of New Bedford Debra Travers Chief Procurement Officer 133 William Street New Bedford, Massachusetts 02740 RE: Fairhaven Mill Redevelopment Project Fairhaven Mill Sawyer District No. 924 Dear Ms. Travers: On behalf of the Mitchell/Sawyer Partnership, LLC, we are pleased to submit our proposal for Whaler’s Landing at Fairhaven Mill in response to the City of New Bedford’s Request for Proposals for the redevelopment of the Fairhaven Mill Sawyer District. Our team is committed and ideally suited to meet the special development needs of this unique site; particularly those established by the City of New Bedford, the Sawyer District neighborhood and local and institutional stakeholders. We have proposed uses and a design which we believe are directly responsive to the goals of historic preservation, contextual design, pedestrian-oriented urban design, a public and active recreational waterfront, and economic development responsive to the local need for goods, services and jobs. Our proposal is based on using the City of New Bedford sites solicited in this invitation and acquisition of the contiguous sites that are currently privately owned. We have had preliminary discussions with the owner’s representative and it is our intention to immediately pursue the acquisition of these sites if designated as developer for the City parcels. We have proposed a diverse team in response to the unique and complex character of this site and opportunity. Our team includes: Urban Investment Associates, Inc. – Real Estate Development Cornerstone Real Estate Adviser, LLC – Equity Investment Meredith and Grew – Real Estate Advisory Services Goulston & Storrs – Legal Partridge, Snow & Hahn, LLP – Legal Arrowstreet, Inc. – Architect CBA Landscape Architects – Landscape Architect Tremont Preservation Services, LLC – Preservation Consultant The Dartmouth Company – Retail Broker Samuel Associates, Inc. – Retail Management Winn Management, Inc. – Residential Management GZA/GeoEnvironmental, Inc. – Geotechnical Engineering VHB/Vanasse Hangen Brustlin, Inc. – Traffic and Civil Engineering and Surveying Daylor Consulting Group, Inc. – Environmental Permitting Veitas & Veitas Engineers Incorporated – Structural Engineering AHA Consulting Engineers, Inc. - Mechanical-Electrical-Plumbing (New Construction) Zade Associates, Inc. - Mechanical-Electrical-Plumbing (Rehabilitation) JVSF Specifications – Specifications Collaborative Lighting, LLC – Lighting Consultant The Hickory Consortium – Sustainable Design Each of the member firms brings extensive experience and expertise in their respective fields. Many have prior experience working together on similar projects in urban locations. The project team is particularly proud of the successful experience of its core members who recently completed the challenging inner-city retail project, Grove Hall’s mecca. The team, which included Urban Investment Associates (UIAI), Samuel Associates, Goulston & Storrs, The Dartmouth Company, Arrowstreet, and Daylor Consulting Group, successfully completed the design, construction, lease-up and stabilization of the 74,000-square-foot supermarket anchored retail center in the Grove Hall section of Roxbury, the poorest neighborhood in the Boston Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area (SMSA). The project, which had been planned for over ten years by the local community, was finally brought to fruition through the collaboration of Samuel Associates and Urban Investment Associates, Inc. The project now serves as the center of retail activity in the neighborhood, and has catalyzed investment in other projects in the neighborhood. Finally, our team is familiar with and experienced in iterative design processes involving community participation. We will employ these experiences and skills in pursuit of this project. We will endeavor to work with the City of New Bedford, organizational and institutional stakeholders, the local community and other individuals to realize the development of this project. We are committed to developing an economically viable, mixed-use development which honors the history, tradition and spirit of the people of New Bedford and their communities. The Mitchell/Sawyer Partnership values this opportunity to plan and develop the Fairhaven Mill site with the City of New Bedford, the institutional stakeholders and the local residents, and have endeavored to demonstrate this through our response to this Request for Proposals. We thank you for this opportunity and look forward to your favorable consideration. Sincerely, MITCHELL SAWYER PARTNERSHIP, LLC L.

The project will be developed to capitalize on the natural attributes of the site; interstate and regional highway access; efficient local vehicular access; a set of viable and structurally sound existing historical buildings; parkland and waterfront adjacency; a richly endowed cultural and historic tradition and an emerging presence in the regional economy. Whaler’s Landing will serve as a landmark development at the gateway to New Bedford which will be designed to acknowledge the past and herald the future.

    ESSEX RECONNAISSANCE REPORT ESSEX COUNTY LANDSCAPE INVENTORY MASSACHUSETTS HERITAGE LANDSCAPE INVENTORY PROGRAM Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation Essex National Heritage Commission PROJECT TEAM Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation Jessica Rowcroft, Preservation Planner Division of Planning and Engineering Essex National Heritage Commission Bill Steelman, Director of Heritage Preservation Project Consultants Shary Page Berg Gretchen G. Schuler Virginia Adams, PAL Local Project Coordinators Helen Bethell Martha Hoar Local Heritage Landscape Committee Helen Bethell Jim Bubrendorf Elizabeth Faye Martha Hoar Courtney Peckham Margaret Wheeler May 20 INTRODUCTION Essex County is known for its unusually rich and varied landscapes, which are represented in each of its 34 municipalities. Heritage landscapes are places that are created by human interaction with the natural environment. They are dynamic and evolving; they reflect the history of the community and provide a sense of place; they show the natural ecology that influenced land use patterns; and they often have scenic qualities. This wealth of landscapes is central to each community’s character; yet heritage landscapes are vulnerable and ever changing. For this reason it is important to take the first steps towards their preservation by identifying those landscapes that are particularly valued by the community – a favorite local farm, a distinctive neighborhood or mill village, a unique natural feature, an inland river corridor or the rocky coast. To this end, the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) and the Essex National Heritage Commission (ENHC) have collaborated to bring the Heritage Landscape Inventory program (HLI) to communities in Essex County. The primary goal of the program is to help communities identify a wide range of landscape resources, particularly those that are significant and unprotected.
