Feasibility Study for Restoration and Enhancement of the Palace of Fine Arts

The Palace of Fine Arts Feasibility Study, conducted on January 24, 2013, aims to evaluate the potential for restoration and improvement of this historic site in San Francisco. Key recommendations include reintroducing a central entryway, enhancing daylight access, and upgrading structural, mechanical, and plumbing systems. The study also emphasizes the importance of historic preservation and compliance with current building codes. A two-phased competitive bidding process will identify a suitable tenant who can provide recreational services and enhance visitor experiences.
