XII. ATTACHMENT: Form of Proposed Sublease

I. THE OPPORTUNITYThe Buffalo Naval Park Committee, Inc. (hereby known as BNP) is soliciting proposals from qualified, experienced restaurant/bar operators to operate The Liberty Hound Restaurant and associated restaurant facilities (“LH”) located within the BNP museum building (“Museum”), located at 1 Naval Cove Park, Buffalo, New York 14202. The BNP hopes to receive proposals that will offer a new and creative LH experience at the waterfront which celebrates the heritage of the Naval Park while complementing existing Canalside waterfront attractions.

The LH is one of a very limited number of restaurants in the very busy waterfront district and has the ability to capture demand from downtown workers and residents, visitors to local attractions, marina slip renters, and tourists, as well as from foot traffic generated by the many special events held in and around the area.

II. BUFFALO NAVAL PARK & CANALSIDE OVERVIEWSituated at the western edge of the City of Buffalo, Buffalo’s waterfront community has continued to go through momentous transformations over the last two decades with hundreds of millions of dollars in public and private investment. At Canalside, along Buffalo’s historic Buffalo River, patrons can learn how Buffalo helped shape the country as the western terminus of the Erie Canal. With growing patronage each year, over 1,500,000 visitors attend countless events throughout the year, from rock concerts to outdoor yoga classes, while seasonal activities such as ice skating in the winter or river cruises in the warm months, attract families year round.

The BNP, prominently located just adjacent to Canalside, is one of Buffalo’s premier downtown and regional attractions. Among its features, the BNP includes the Veterans memorial gardens, three floating military vessels, an outdoor exhibit yard, and several military artifacts and exhibits on display on the second floor of the Museum. The LH is located on the first floor of the Museum. It offers a variety of food and beverages and has a vibrant patio with breathtaking sunsets and views of the Buffalo River and Lake Erie.

Canalside remains Buffalo’s hottest development site, with recent construction and opening of HARBORCenter, a mixed-use development occupying approximately 1.7 acres directly across from and connected to the KeyBank Center and Canalside. HARBORCenter features retail and restaurant space, a 205-room full service Marriott Hotel, as well as two hockey rinks that are home to the Ontario Junior Hockey League, NCAA, and numerous local and world-wide players who assemble for tournaments and training.

In 2019, Canalside will see the opening of the brand new, 43,000 square foot, Explore & More Children’s Museum, a best-in-class play-based learning center for children from all over Western New York and beyond. In the following year, Canalside will welcome its first residents with Heritage Point, two buildings equaling 71,000 square feet of retail, office, and 41 market and affordable apartments.


Canalside will continue to build upon its status as Buffalo’s premier waterfront development into the future, with ultimate plans to complete approximately 6,000,000 square feet of entertainment, education, office, and residential space within its footprint.

III. THE RESTAURANT SITEThe BNP operates the Buffalo & Erie County Naval & Military Park (“Naval Park”) and the adjacent Veteran’s Memorial Gardens pursuant to the terms of a certain lease with the City of Buffalo (“City”).1 The LH’s high-profile location within the Museum sits at the entranceway to Canalside (See Exhibit A). Currently made up of approximately 1,464square feet of interior restaurant/bar space and approximately 1,519 square feet of outdoor patio space, (see Exhibit B), the LH is situated at one of the major focal points of Buffalo’s waterfront.

The LH is a fully built out and operational commercial restaurant/bar, with the successful proposer having full access and rights to use all installed appliances, finishes, and equipment on-site. (See Exhibit C) Approximately 184 square feet of storage/back office space is available at the Museum, (see Exhibit B) and the BNP plans to make available another 160 square feet of storage space in a shipping container to be located adjacent to the hangar building (“Hangar”), which sits across Commercial Street from the Museum (See Exhibit A).

The BNP is currently undertaking a multi-phase, multi-million dollar renovation of the Hangar. Upon completion of these renovations, the BNP’s admissions and gift shop areas intend to relocate to the Hangar. This process is dependent upon completion of fundraising (approx. $1.75 million has already been raised) and is expected to be completed within the next two (2) to three (3) years. After the relocation of BNP’s admissions and gift shop areas to the Hangar, the LH will expand into the vacated space increasing the interior restaurant/bar space by approximately 592 square feet and adding approximately 313 square feet of storage/back office space. This additional storage/back office space would replace the 160 square feet of storage space in the shipping container.

1 The BNP’s current lease with the City expired on November 30, 2018. The City and BNP are currently negotiating a new Lease & Operating Agreement that is anticipated to extend to November 30, 2028. On November 27, 2018, the Common Council approved a three (3) month extension to February 28, 2018.
