Constituent File, 1967-2011 (continued)
BOX 49-73 Presidio, 1979-2011
Files documenting the closure of the Presidio Army base in 1988 and its subsequent redevelopment as a national park jointly managed by the Presidio Trust and National Park Service. Testimonies, statements, correspondence, and reports trace the Defense Base Closure and Realignment Commission's (BRAC) recommendation to close the Presidio Army base in the late 1980s, assess the economic impact on the city of San Francisco, describe plans to deactivate the Sixth Army, and document requirements and plans for environmental cleanup of the base. Records pertaining to future use planning and ultimate transfer of the land to the Department of the Interior in 1994 include newsletters and publications from the National Park Service Presidio Planning Council, correspondence and reports from the Presidio Council, and correspondence and news clippings. Pelosi’s efforts to prevent the base from going to auction and to preserve it as a historical site are heavily documented in her legislative work from the 103rd and 104th Congresses. This includes bill drafts, testimonies, hearing materials, and correspondence from Pelosi's initially unsuccessful efforts to establish the Presidio Trust Act during the 103rd Congress and her later successful efforts to sign into law the Presidio Trust Act of 1996 during the 104th Congress. Correspondence, news clippings, publications, and printed materials dated between 1997 and 2001 describe the Presidio Trust and its Board of Director’s management of the park and the development of several structures within the park including the Letterman Complex, the Public Health Hospital, and the Main Post.
