GSA to Sell 17 Historic Lighthouses

GSA to Sell 17 Historic Lighthouses

The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) will soon issue Notices of Availability (NOAs) for 17 historic lighthouses located across the country.
  • Written by American City & County Administrator
  • 9th April 2007

The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) will soon issue Notices of Availability (NOAs) for 17 historic lighthouses located across the country.

“GSA takes its stewardship responsibilities very seriously,” said David L. Winstead, Commissioner of GSA’s Public Buildings Service. “We recognize the cultural, recreational and educational value associated with these historic lighthouses and are committed to working with our federal partners and other interested stakeholders to preserve these treasured assets.”

GSA, the federal government’s property management and procurement agency, will work with the Departments of Homeland Security’s U.S. Coast Guard and Interior’s National Park Service to facilitate the transfer of excess historic lighthouses. These lighthouses are transferred at no cost to qualified federal agencies, state and local governments or non-profit organizations under the authority of the National Historic Lighthouse Preservation Act of 2000 (NHLPA).

This legislation amended the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 by establishing a National Lighthouse Preservation Program.

Additionally, GSA collaborates with State Historic Preservation Officers to ensure historic preservation measures are in place to protect the lighthouses. If no steward is identified through the NOA and application process, GSA will sell the lighthouses through a competitive public auction.

The complete list of projected Notices of Availability as well as information on the NHLPA process is at: http://www.cr.nps.gov/maritime/nhlpa/nhlpa.htm . Lighthouses scheduled for public sale will be listed in local newspapers and on GSA’s public Web site at http://propertydisposal.gsa.gov/property . Interested parties with questions on how the NOA or the public sale process operates may contact GSA’s Office of Property Disposal at (202) 501-2287.
