Project Background

760 W Baseline Road is located at the intersection of N. Carr Avenue and W. Baseline Road. The Lafayette Urban Renewal Authority (LURA) originally purchased this Property with the desire to construct a pocket park owned and maintained by the City of Lafayette. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the City Administration reevaluated priorities, resources, and expenditures, and determined it could no longer be a maintenance or programming partner. Since the site cannot be used for a city-owned park, LURA is ready to reimagine the site and sell the Property.

Why is LURA selling the Property?

It is not typical, or desirable, for an Urban Renewal Authority to own property for long periods. LURA wishes to sell the Property through a competitive process that will ask individuals or teams to submit a proposal outlining their plans for the property.

In 2022, LURA conducted community outreach to develop Guiding Principles to show what success may look like without being overly prescriptive of the exact project we want to see. Lafayette is a creative community, so we’re interested in what proposals teams come up with.
