The Presidio Trust invites the public to participate in considering the future of the former Commissary at Crissy Field, which is today occupied by Sports Basement.
The longstanding objective has been to create a cultural institution of distinction at this magnificent waterfront location (see the 2002 Presidio Trust Management Plan, Chapter 3). Now that the area is being transformed due to the construction of a new approach to the Golden Gate Bridge (a project known as the Presidio Parkway), the time is right to plan for the future of this area.
The Process
In November 2012 the Presidio Trust issued a Request for Concept Proposals (RFCP) seeking programmatic possibilities. Sixteen responses were received. After considering public comment and engaging with a number of the teams directly, in May 2013 the Trust invited three teams to continue in the process via a Request for Proposals (RFP). The teams are:
The RFP was issued May 10, 2013; final proposals are due September 16, 2013.

The three teams will present their ideas at a public meeting on Monday, June 17, 2013, at 6:30 pm at the Herbst Pavilion in the Presidio’s Main Post, 385 Moraga Avenue.
