Merrimack Street Redevelopment

The City of Haverhill has been working  to complete a transformative redevelopment of downtown Haverhill.  With this in the mind, the City published a Request for Proposal (RFP) in October 2020 for 4.49 acres of land, which included the existing Goecke Parking Deck.  The goal – provide a premier redevelopment opportunity that will provide economic benefits and vitality to a district that is in the midst of public and private reinvestment, while also providing replacement parking that will serve the City’s needs for decades to come.

The City’s updated master plan, Vision Haverhill 2035, calls out the importance of Downtown and the riverfront.  To facilitate development, zoning provides bonus provisions for dense development that enhances public access and open space in concert with new uses.  This area of the Downtown has been targeted for a range of uses that include distinctive retail, offices and restaurants, housing, and other uses.
