BOSTON, MA — The National Parks of Boston announced the opening of a Request for Proposals (RFP) for a leasing opportunity at the historic Easton Building located in downtown Boston at 15 State Street. This RFP solicitation offers the property under a lease for use as office space, hotel or residential housing units. Additional uses will be considered.

The building is listed as an Historic Building in the Inventory of Historic Assets of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and is eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places.
