Two proposals to redevelop the city-owned property on West Third Street were submitted by the deadline this week.
Rome Purchasing Director Becky Smyth said Friday that both would put a combination of retail, restaurants and residences on the 2.2-acre tract next to the Courtyard Rome Riverwalk hotel. The property consists of the site used as a parking lot and the adjacent glass store.
âWe were impressed by the submissions and the use of the space,â Smyth said.
Proposals came from Broad Street LLC, formed by developer Ira Levy, and FSRE Impact Rome River District LLC out of Atlanta. The principals are Alex Dominguez and Jeff Warwick of Four Stones Real Estate but theyâve put together a team that includes Bob Ledbetter, whose Rome company is building the East Bend shopping center on the former Kmart property.
