NYC2012 Calling All Designers

NEW YORK CITY-If the city wins its bid for the 2012 Olympic Games, the Olympic Village will be turned into residential housing after the 17-day spotlight.

By Melissa Kress | Updated on September 25, 2003

NEW YORK CITY-NYC2012 is holding an international design competition for architects and designers for the proposed Olympic Village, slated to be built in Queens. By holding an open call for qualifications, the committee hopes to encourage small, lesser-known firms to participate.

The competition is “another important milestone in the long race New York has been in to bring the Olympic Games to New York City,” says Deputy Mayor Daniel L. Doctoroff.

The first step in creating an Olympic Village for 16,000 athletes, coaches and officials is an issuance for RFQs, which begins today with information posted on the committee’s website. NYC2012 will then hold a question-and-answer opportunity until Oct. 24. At that time all the questions and answers will be posted on the website. Interested firms then have until Nov. 17 to submit the simple, nine-page request, according to Alexander Garvin, director of planning for NYC2012.
