Pier 39
Pier
Pier 39 (pier, run by the Port of San Francisco): $156.4M budgeted for its department in FY2025, 304 employees on the payroll, 9 city documents at the Internet Archive, every figure linked to its source. Pier 39's file is mostly environmental review of its development. A 1976 city planning EIR and a 1977 federal environmental statement describe the plan for Pier 39: about 200,000 square feet of new retail — 133,000 square feet of food service and 67,000 square feet of shops — plus a "people mover" circling the pier and marina berthing for sport-fishing and small boats. A 1988 draft EIR covers the Underwater World aquarium proposed at Pier 39. An Arts Commission agenda records Pier 39 management exploring hosting the Cheemah sculpture at East Park, pending Port and BCDC approval. The pier is operated by the Port of San Francisco, whose FY2025 budget line is $156M; no contract in this data names it. Source: SF Controller open data and the Internet Archive.

No city spending is recorded against this place by name. San Francisco publishes contracts, bond items and vendor payments at project level, and none of them names this site — so there is no figure to show, rather than a figure of zero.
Run by the Port, whose whole-department budget is $156.4M across 304 staff (FY2025) — citywide, not this place’s own. The City does not publish a running cost per building.
