Official Website

of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania

    The .gov means its official.

    Local, state, and federal government websites often end in .gov. Commonwealth of Pennsylvania government websites and email systems use "pennsylvania.gov" or "pa.gov" at the end of the address. Before sharing sensitive or personal information, make sure you're on an official state website. 

    The Bureau of Real Estate manages the process through which state agencies lease additional office space, Pennsylvania liquor stores, and warehousing. All leasing requests and lease actions are reviewed for cost-saving opportunities, such as the colocation and consolidation of staff to reduce the total amount of space the Commonwealth rents and reduce the overall administrative work related to managing leases. 

    Current lease solicitations by state agencies are posted on eMarketplace.   

    Downtown Location Law

    The Downtown Location Law was designed to facilitate the revitalization of traditional central and neighborhood business districts throughout the Commonwealth. DGS has established guidelines to encourage state agencies to locate in downtown areas to promote reuse and redevelopment, support of local business, and avoid contributing to the effects of urban sprawl.

    Leasing of Commonwealth-Owned Facilities

    The Commonwealth may lease excess land and buildings to public and private entities in its sole discretion and when the proposed use does not conflict with the primary use by the Commonwealth of the rest of the property. In limited instances, the Commonwealth may also lease a property to state employees as defined in Management Directive 315.14 Maintenance Charges for Employees Residing or Subsisting in Commonwealth-Owned Facilities. Inquiries about leasing Commonwealth-owned space should be directed to (717) 787-4394.
