The Government anticipates negotiating a succeeding lease at the existing location (225 E. 16th Street, Denver, CO 80203) which currently provides 23,440 usable square feet of contiguous office and a minimum of 27 reserved parking spaces, 13 of which must be covered parking spaces, for Government vehicles. GSA is interested in considering alternative space if relocation is economically advantageous to the Government. In making such a determination, GSA will consider cost factors including, but not limited to, the total cost of the physical move (including telecommunications and computer cabling costs); tenant improvement costs (whether included in the rent or compensated separately from the rent); and anticipated rent for the space. Proximity to employee services, such as moderately priced restaurants, banks, public transportation, and a fitness center, as well as hotel accommodations for visitors is also necessary. Other factors impacting the Government's rights under a prospective lease, such as the length of any firm term that may be required at an alternative location, length of time necessary to deliver occupancy-ready space, and the right to terminate any space vacated during the term, will also bear. Space must be located within three blocks of the present leased location. Space must meet the Federal Government's standards for fire safety, be capable of being fully accessible to the physically challenged, and be located outside a 100-year floodplain.
