GSA is interested in awarding a Revocable License for a two (2) year period with three additional two (2) year option periods. The D’Amato Courthouse is approximately 642,227 RSF, the estimated average daily occupancy is approximately 300 (combined) occupants and visitors, and the desired operating hours are 7 AM to 3:00 PM, Monday through Friday (excluding Federal Holidays).

There is currently an equipped working kitchen providing work, storage and serving spaces, and an adjoining shared seating area of approx 60 seats, available for use. An existing Randolph Sheppard Program Micromart and vending operation is present at the DAmato location which will remain and operate 24/7.

There is no charge for rent, utilities or use of the kitchen facilities. Use of the kitchen is restricted to food preparation and sales for building related purposes only.
