Port announces six Pier 70 RFQ responses; staff to convene review panel
Summary
The Port reported six responses to the Pier 70 waterfront RFQ for a 25‑acre site and said submissions will go to a review panel with results expected back to the commission in late February or early March. The announcement links the solicitation to community planning work and America's Cup viewing needs.
Port staff told commissioners the Port received six responses to the request for qualifications for the 25‑acre Pier 70 waterfront site.
Executive Director said the submittals were from local and regional teams as well as one federal respondent; she listed Build Inc/City Development California, Mission Bay Development Group, San Francisco Waterfront Partners, TMG Partners and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs San Francisco Medical Center among the respondents and said the names will be reviewed by a selection panel. Staff said it expects to return to the commission in late February or early March with the panel's recommendations.
The solicitation follows three years of community planning that established a preferred master plan for Pier 70. Staff emphasized the project will move through a competitive review process and that the panel's job is to assess qualifications and proposals against the port's evaluation criteria. Commissioners referenced the America's Cup as a scheduling consideration and flagged that community interests and waterfront activation will be weighed during review.
No awards or contract actions were taken at the meeting; the commission expects a staff report and recommended action at a future meeting after the review panel completes its evaluation.
