How to Participate:

1. Take our Survey. Take a Tour.

The survey takes five minutes and is a great way to share your voice.

Tours are given every Thursday through October. An RSVP is required.
*Please note that the building is not currently ADA accessible. If you would like a virtual tour, please email us at haight@sfheritage.org for more information.

2. Got an Idea? Would you like to be part of a larger team?

Fill out our Participation Form. This short, no-commitment form will let us know the type of role you would like to play. If you have specific ideas you would like to share, you can include them on the form as well.

3. Are you an individual, Team or Developer Interested in the RFCP?

The RFCP will be Available here on this site on August 1, 2025. Until then, feel free to take the survey, fill out our participation form, and spread the word to your community about the project. Then check back on this site on August 1, 2025, to download the RFCP Packet and learn more.

We’ll also be gathering information from our participation forms for individuals and organizations that might be interested in playing a role with or supporting larger teams. We’ll share that as it becomes available and include it in the RFCP.

In the meantime, here are some things to think about if you are considering making a proposal:

Proposals do not need to address the entire property, or present a fully developed concept—at this RFCP stage, we welcome ideas of all scales, temporary or permanent, partial or comprehensive.

We’ll publish the eligible submissions in order to spark collaboration, encourage dialogue, and help form strong, multi-disciplinary teams for the formal Proposal stage starting in December.

That said, here are some important things that concept submissions should consider:

✓ A feasible funding pathway and financial viability

✓ An innovative proposal that reflects the legacy and future of countercultural experimentation.

✓ Public engagement and programming

✓ Adaptability to the architectural constraints of a historic landmark

✓ An understanding of the Secretary of the Interior’s Guidelines for Historic Preservation

✓ Appropriate and sensitive to the neighborhood
