RFP: Legal Services for Seniors

The City of Rochester (City) is seeking proposals from qualified Consultants (“Consultant(s)”) to provide environmental consulting services at 52 and 96 Falls Street (Site) in Rochester, NY. (NYSDEC Site #C828227). The Site consists of two (2) City-owned parcels, (52 and 96 Falls Street), with a combined area of approximately 3.5 acres. The City seeks to have a Site Characterization performed on subsurface conditions as described in the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) approved Site Characterization Work Plan, September 2024. This project will be completed with funding provided by the City and in accordance with the NYSDEC regulations, guidelines, and plan approvals.

The Site was the former location of a City of Rochester refuse incinerator and related operations dating back to as early as 1906. Incinerator activities reportedly ceased in 1952, and the Site was sporadically used for various commercial activities including automotive parts sales and construction/demolition materials storage until the early 2000s. The Site is owned by the City of Rochester and is currently vacant. Remaining structures on the property include a three (3)-story masonry building that formerly housed the incinerator, and an adjacent masonry stack. The stack and incinerator building are connected by a steel bridge at an elevation of approximately 20 feet above surrounding grade, which formerly contained exhaust ducts leading to the stack.
