The Friends of Presidio 640 is dedicated to the rehabilitation and interpretation of Building 640 at the San Francisco Presidio, origins of the 4th Army Military Intelligence Service (MIS) Language School.

The first major goal of the Friends is to promote and launch fundraising and Capital Campaign efforts for the preservation and adaptive reuse of the building. Preliminary revised construction costs, currently targeted for basic stabilization and reconstruction of the building prior to other construction components, are estimated at around $3 million.

As the Friends of Presidio 640 move forward, we will continue our ongoing partnership with the National Japanese American Historical Society (NJAHS), Presidio Trust and National Park Service, and other key organizations.

This site is currently under construction and will include additional information about the Capital Campaign and the project in general. A separate account for subsequent donations is being organized for the Friends of Presidio 640.
