The former Spanish Commandante's home and American Officers Club is under rehabilitation. A "Heritage Center" is being planned for part of the structure. Most of the Officers Club is reserved for income producing special events, a cafe and a bookstore. The Presidio Trust has hired a prominent exhibit design firm from New York, Ralph Applebaum and Associates, to design the "Heritage Center" and some display spaces in the ground floor of one or more Montgomery Street Barracks. Those are the iconic large red brick barracks on Main Post. This planning is in its early stages. It is promising that the Trust has committed to these educational opportunities in history at the Presidio.
