THE U.S. GOVERNMENT





REQUIREMENT:



The General Services Administration currently leases 56,441 rentable (47,975 usable) sq. feet of office space, with 26 inside parking spaces, at 606 S. Olive Street in the City of Los Angeles for the Executive Office of Immigration Review (EOIR). GSA plans to lease a total of 60,052 usable (70,441 rentable) square feet for up to six additional years at this location by negotiating a six (6) year superseding lease / lease extension through late October 2014. GSA will pursue this plan unless other buildings are available that can meet the criteria in this announcement and can prove overall cost effectiveness when considering relocation costs of furniture and communications (data and voice), tenant improvements and other factors.
