(SAN FRANCISCO) The community leaders held an early celebration last week on March 18 to welcome the Central Subway Chinatown - Rose Pak Station open in fall this year and two commercial retail spaces at the station which are available for the public to submit leasing proposals.

Currently the Central Subway is in its testing phase, and is projected to open for service in fall 2022. The San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SFMTA) has issued a Request for Proposals to invite the public to lease two commercial retail spaces at the Chinatown - Rose Pak Station, including a coffee shop and a dry goods concessionaire.

SFMTA begins to accept proposal from March 1. The deadline for submission of the proposal is at noon on April 6.
