  1. Planning History • Port through Citizen Advisory Group has been working on a Plan for Pier 70 since 2000 • In 2005 EDAW an internationally recognized Landscape Architecture and Planning firm through its Summer Intern Program developed a Pier 70 Concept Vision Plan • Port reinitiated Master Planning process based upon the momentum of EDAW program

  2. Master Planning Team • Since Last Year Port has retained three Consultant Teams to assist Port Staff in Developing a Master Plan, teams include: • Carey & Company who are assisting in the the Historical analysis; • Economic Planning Systems Team, including Roma Design Group who are assisting in the Economic and Master Planning; and • Treadwell & Rollo who are assisting in the Environmental analysis;

  3. Site Overview • Approximately 65-acres • Approximately 40 Historic Structures Potentially eligible for National Register of Historic Places • Area has been operating as a Ship Building or Ship Repair Facility since mid-1800’s • Home to Largest Ship Repair Dry-dock on West coast of Americas • Ideal Site for Major Waterfront Open Space

  4. Master Plan Goals • Preserve existing Ship Repair Operations • Rehabilitate important Historic Resources • Develop Major Shoreline Open Space • Conduct Environmental Remediation/Clean Up • Develop Economically Viable Land Use Program

  5. Site & Development Challenges • The Historic Resources are severely deteriorated • The development Community is reticent about pursuing development without a Master Plan for the entire site • Public Trust use Criteria, as currently interpreted by the State Lands Commission are restrictive and limit uses that are required to pay for site improvements • The 150+ years of Heavy Industrial uses has created a brownfields site, which will require significant funding for investigation, mitigation and clean up • Pier 70 infrastructure is old and will require complete upgrades

  6. Master Plan Status - Historic Analysis • Carey & Company is assisting Port staff in: • research and documentation of Pier 70’s site history, including the activities that took place; • complete survey of all historic structures; • resource data base of all facilities; • detailed resource description; • ranking of the resources; and • a Historic Context Statement; • Information will be used as a framework for the Master Plan and for nomination of National Register Historic District, if deemed appropriate.

  7. Master Plan Status - Historic Analysis • It is generally recognized that given location and physical condition of the historic resources and other Master Planning needs, it will not be economically or physically feasible to save all facilities; • The facilities have been ranked for Historical Significance, including: • - Very Significant: The most important resources because of their substantial historical and/or architectural value; • - Significant: Notable structures or features; • - Contributing: Resources that contribute to the district, that are not individually eligible or distinctive, the loss of which couldhave a cumulative impact on the integrity of the district; • - To Be Determined: Analysis incomplete and still under consideration; • - Non-Contributing: These structures either postdate the period of significance, or lack historic integrity.

  8. DRAFT Historic Resource Rating

  9. Master Plan Status - Historic Analysis • Context Statement is the account of the historical significance that is the basis for a listing on National Register of Historic Places; • - Pier 70 Context is based upon Historic Ship Building Activity and the Architectural/Engineering Significance • Next Steps • Meeting with State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) this Thursday, • - introduce SHPO to site, • - outline approach to redevelop site • - seek guidance on listing of site on National Register • - discuss approaches and options for use of Federal Rehabilitation Tax Credits

  10. Master Plan Status - Historic Analysis • Next Steps - Key Milestones and Deliverables • Item Target date • Resource Descriptions and Profile database June ‘07 • Draft Historic Context Statement August ‘07 • Proposed Historic District Boundary (if applicable) September ‘07 • Draft Historic District Nomination (if applicable) November ‘07

  11. Master Plan Status – Environmental Analysis • Treadwell & Rollo is assisting Port staff in: • Site Investigation & Sampling; • Development of a Remediation Plan for the Crane Cove Shoreline area; and • Create a database of all previous environmental investigations within Pier 70;

  12. Environmental Investigation/ Analysis Area

  13. Master Plan Status – Environmental Analysis • Soil and Sediment Sampling Complete • Preliminary Review indicate soil samples have elevated levels of lead at concentrations requiring removal or capping to preclude human exposure; • Additional data and interpretation will be completed during the subsequent human health and ecological risk assessment;

  14. Master Plan Status – Environmental Analysis • Next Steps Key Milestones and Deliverables • Discuss analysis with stakeholders and regulatory agencies • Use Risk Based decision analysis to determine remediation and clean up options • Item Target date • Investigation Work Program March ‘07 • Site Investigation, Sampling & Material Analysis May ‘07 • Human Health & Ecological Risk Assessment August ‘07 • Risk-Based Decision Analysis November ‘07 • Remediation Plan (based upon findings & risk assessment) December ‘07

  15. Master Plan Status – Master Planning • Economic Planning Systems Team, including ROMA Design Group is assisting Port staff in: • Master Planning • Market Assessment • Economic Feasibility Analysis • Development Phasing & Implementation • EPS Team is working closely with Carey & Company on integration of the Historic Resource analysis and preservation priorities and Treadwell & Rollo on Environmental Analysis

  16. Master Plan Status – Master Planning • Economic Planning Systems Team has: • Reviewed Background Analysis and Past Plans, Studies and development proposals • Developed an initial Draft Development Framework based upon Carey & Company analysis; and historical influences • Development Framework includes: - Preserve as many structures as feasible with priorities on Most Significant; • - Preserve and recognize “key” vacant areas or circulation hubs • - Maintain character of historical build out and massing of site

  17. Master Plan Status – Master Planning Market Opportunities and Constraints - The ongoing operations of the shipyard require that new uses be compatible with maritime industrial activities; - The historic buildings and character of Pier 70 are essential to its identity; - The costs for the reuse of Pier 70 are substantial, and will require a land use program that creates substantial value to help finance those costs; - A strong market opportunity for the reuse of Pier 70 stems from its proximity to the emerging biosciences at Mission Bay;

  18. Master Plan Status – Master PlanningMarket Opportunities and Constraints- Cont.d • - Residential uses are not a priority on the site, due to the constraints of the tidelands trust, although there is an upland site that could generate significant revenue; • There is demand for Light Industrial and Production Distribution and Repair (PDR) uses in the Pier 70 area, however, it is unlikely to generate needed revenues; • - The Pier 70 site has the potential to support a limited amount of retail/commercial activity; and • - Visitor serving, institutional uses, such as a museum, arts/film center, or exhibition complex are potentially viable uses.

  19. Master Plan Status – Master Plan • Next Steps Key Milestones and Deliverables • Develop Land Use and Development Scenarios • Further Market Assessment • Preliminary Financial Assessment • Item Target date • Site Issues, Opportunities and Context Memo June ‘07 • Market Analysis & Development Framework July ‘07 • Master Plan Alternative Concepts & Financial Feasibility Analysis September ‘07 • Draft Master Plan Concept and Financial Feasibility Analysis November ‘07 • Preferred Master Plan December ‘07

  20. Master Plan Coordination with BAE SF Dry-dock • Lease Amendment Requires BAE to develop Facilities Master Plan • - Facility Master Plan requires BAE to develop Plan to vacate 2.5 acre “reversion area” • - Requires BAE to coordinate with Port on Pier 70 Master Planning Process

  21. Master Plan Public Outreach • Use Port’s Central Waterfront Advisory Group for monthly (or as needed) updates on status of effort • - Conduct Community Workshops at Key stages in Master Plan effort • Use other Neighborhood or interest Groups to conduct outreach and receive input, such as Dog Patch Neighborhood Association, Potrero Boosters, Blue Greenway, Green Trust and Architectural Heritage • Use SPUR’s various Forums to solicit input • Use of ULI or other development forums to solicit developer feedback on feasibility, as Plan is developed

  22. Master Plan – Next Steps • Conduct First Community Workshop in Late July on Existing Conditions and Development Framework; • Develop Land Use Alternative Scenarios for Review & Input • Coordinate with State Lands Commission on approach to rectify State Tidelands Trust Issues • Develop Preferred Final Master Plan including implementation strategy • Develop Strategy for release of Development Request for Proposals
