The Department of Defense, specifically the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, is seeking sources for leased retail and related space in Houston, Texas, as their current lease is set to expire soon. The government aims to lease approximately 1,260 square feet of existing Class A or B retail space that meets specific building specifications, including compliance with federal, state, and local ordinances, as well as force protection standards. This procurement is crucial for ensuring the government has a suitable operational space that minimizes relocation costs and downtime, with an initial fully serviced five-year lease intended to commence by September 30, 2025. Interested parties should submit expressions of interest, including detailed property information, to Cynthia Easter at cynthia.easter@usace.army.mil by December 2, 2024.
