National Park Service


Public Notice; Request for Proposals (RFP)

SUMMARY: The National Park Service (NPS) proposes to issue a long-term 
lease of sufficient duration to enable a developer/operator to 
rehabilitate the historic Haslett Warehouse and adapt it to an 
appropriate commercial application. The Haslett Warehouse is a 198,000 
square foot 4-story brick structure located in San Francisco's 
Fisherman's Wharf area, and is listed on the National Register of 
Historic Places. The building is located at 680 Beach Street (at Hyde 
Street).
    Currently, the building's condition can be considered fair, 
although lack of maintenance has resulted in some deterioration of the 
roof and brick walls. Lessee will be required to provide seismic 
bracing, repointing of exterior brickwork, fire sprinkler system, ADA 
modifications, window treatment, and other improvements as a condition 
of the lease.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is an open leasing opportunity. NPS 
will consider all proposals for use of the building, without preference 
as to type of use, that are capable of generating a lease income to NPS 
equivalent to other proposals submitted, are legal under existing law, 
do not entail destruction or unacceptable alteration of the structure's 
historic fabric, and meet all other RFP requirements. Minimum annual 
lease payment is expected to be approximately $300,000. Actual duration 
of the lease will be based on the intended use set forth in the 
selected proposal. Proposals are due at the below address ninety (90) 
days after publication of this notice.
    Prospective applicants are encouraged to inspect the Haslett 
Warehouse prior to submitting proposals. Applicants may arrange tours 
of the building with Mr. Marc Hayman, Chief of Interpretation and 
Resource Management for San Francisco Maritime National Historical 
Park, by leaving a telephone number on his pager at (415) 764-5887.
