Join us for a special Sustainable Development Committee (SDC) meeting on Thursday June 22 at 6-8pm Join by Zoom. This SDC meeting will be dedicated to presentations from two bidders for the DNI-owned Our Tierra Livri site.
Dudley Neighbors, Inc. (DNI) has released the Request for Proposal (RFP) for the Our Tierra Livri site, also known as Dudley Miller Park (483-487 Dudley Street). Through this RFP process, DNI seeks a developer for the site that can create a development plan which strengthens the Dudley Corridor business district; serves local residents and businesses; is realistic and financially sustainable over the long-term; and can deliver compensation to DNI for its costs for securing the land, engagement in community planning, conducting preliminary due diligence, and acting as the long-term steward of the property.
The Our Tierra Livri site is the 14,000 square ft. vacant lot near our office on 483-487 Dudley Street with giant wooden letters stating OUR TIERRA LIVRI (English, Spanish and Cape Verdean Creole for Our Liberated Land). The park became a part of the DNI community land trust in December of 2013.
Copies of the two proposals can be found here:

Real estate and development have long been sectors tied to systemic racism, with rampant discrimination in everything from planning to development, financing to borrowing, and renting to buying. Changing the demographics of the industry itself is critical to achieving equity and to building wealth. What kinds of careers do real estate and development offer? What will it take to get people of color to consider these career paths? What can our secondary education institutions do to prepare young Bostonians for a successful career? What is the responsibility of current real estate and development professionals of color to the youth and young adults of the city? Focusing on property development and commercial real estate, this panel will address ways to get Boston youth and adults into the sector’s good-paying jobs.
