. >> just last week i did a reading and q&a in virtual reality in a multiuser environment called rec room and i was holding a microphone and if i was not holding the microphone people were not able to hear my voice coming out of the speakers that were built into the virtual environment. what i held in real life was just a controller, a hand controller, i would use in any other way but by pressing the button i was gripping the object that was economy so was able to pick it up and then there was the microphone and then it activated the pa system that is encoded into this room so for me it was just like i was here holding a hand up to my face and people were sitting there each one of you would've been sitting or standing at home with a headset and you had been looking at a stage for something that was cartoonish but still looks a little like me with a mic talking. the question and answers were just like -- it was remarkable. >> how many of you have tried avr headset yet? just about everybody. how many of you have done that one of the pc ones like the hdc five? >> we are in the motherlan

they have a history of using their space for multiuses. in this case we are talking about for use for catering. this dates back to the 60s and they did a significant amount of catering for the democratic convention in the late '60s and that tradition carried on for years and years. i had the good fortune of meeting the owner of the bakery. he has been in front of you before. the conversation started there and then we expanded it, and we thought how can we utilize these spaces that get used for a limited amount of time, often in bakeries or cafÉs for maybe a small portion of the day in the morning and then sit dormant. [ please stand by] as often as you all probably know there conflicting messages, so the department of public health had one perspective as it pertains to perspective use and planning department had another. we believe it is something that will have wide application in san francisco and believe will be utilized broadly. i'm happy to answer any questions. thank you for your consideration and thank you for the land-use team and

so i just hope that many of the fields are definitely multiuse and that you've worked with perhaps theaelic association and wanting to make sure that there are many traditional sports that we all know, but some of these other ones have -- this is perhaps the only field for some of these on the island. so i just want to really stress the importance of that. and again, i think it's shaping up really well. i believe our president's comments about mission bay, which i think was a great plan having been on the board, but i also see, you know, the big wide -- the whole idea of the wide boulevards. you know, ending up in the bay. it looked nice. it looked really nice, but clearly it has its faults. especially for an island. so just again, ihink it's a great plan, it's moving forward in a very positive and inclusive way. especially inclusive if we get people of color. anyway, thank you so much. >> director lai: thank you. i also echo that i think this looks overall like a really good well thought out comprehensive plan. i particularly like the separate designation of uses along the commons par

about $30 million so this was not an inexpensive venture and it showcased their talents there at a multiuse facility. they made quite an investment into this property and they continued to make additional investments as time progressed. when they started in 2005, there were roughly at $13 million and within a little over ten years, they've doubled their sales to almost $27 million. by all accounts, they're extremely successful with what they've done. and it's really - they have a really good pulse for what happens in the wharf and i think it's the type of experience that people do enjoy when they come to the wharf. as you can see, the port earns $1.6 million, which is the percentage of rent. they pay us $500,000 base rent and another million dollars in percentage rent. so their success has meant increased revenue for the port and we'd like to continue to see that happen. the way the lease was set up prior, 40-year lease, but there was no options to extend. it was a firm term and then just expire. so through a lot of discussions with boudin and their management and ownership, they've really
