we are thinking that in an ideal world, would be curated space. maybe we could have a number of artisans stalls and there could be one tenants that would curate all the spaces. or, maybe we might need to do multiple tendencies. we are still testing that i process this but today we went to get your feedback on the vision. so, again, this is the vision that we showed you a year ago with a bulkhead being phase 1 and then phases two, three, and four being followed on phases. now that we've undertaken the waterfront land use plan update and highlighted additional planning for the northern waterfront, we suspect phases two and three will be focused as part of that update process. phase 4 is the back of the shed that's open on two sides. three, if you figure it's a five sided area, and our vision right now is that would remain an open space that could be programmed for special events and special uses as opposed to a full-time use. i think we have more work to do there. were focusing still on the bulkhead building which is number one in this photo. doing

working with the curators, we developed a plan for a sophisticated to party. -- pizza party.and a scavenger hunt. the curators developed an extensive list of facts about the white house that required each group to travel all the levels and rooms of the white house. chelsea and her guests had to answer certain questions, find things like a hidden staircase, and obtain food items to bring to the kitchen. teams of 3-4 were chosen and for the next hours, the youngsters roamed the white house. one of the most difficult problems for families the white house is feeling comfortable enough to gather friends for conversation and fun. on the occasion of mrs. bush's birthday on october 26, 1993. her staff wanted to have an old-fashioned costume party. given the proximity to halloween of course. there were to be about 150 guests for a buffet and dancing. everyone was to be dressed in costume. in keeping with the theme, i and another, decided that the resident staff serving the party should also be in costume. these were the white house butler'ss. the clintons were surprised. they had foun

have options in the argument if someone comes up with an interesting proposal that allows them to curate, undressing or making a decision that that would be the option that we take, but we should have the flexibility because it sometimes somebody can't gauche these things have to complement each other. they can't just be 10 different leases or something that don't kind of integrate. not to say we couldn't include that ourselves but sometimes they're the people that come up with the vision and concept of doing that in an interesting way. i think we should have the flexibility in the rfp to be with to look at, nations of either one to do it all or others that say that they're interested in certain pieces of space. and then see whether what we get in return. i think we want to keep the flexibility because as i said, i think it's important to make sure the space is componentry, not within itself, but complement three to the area that we are thinking of the cruise ship terminal. odyssey, would be sensitive to the neighbors, too, but i think we really have to think this is all components and i
