OVERVIEW

We are searching for a talented Development Intern to be based out of our regional office in San
Francisco. Forest City Realty Trust, LLC, is a NYSE-listed national real estate company engaged in
commercial and residential real estate throughout the United States. This will be a paid internship.

The San Francisco office is responsible for development of two major projects in San Francisco – Pier
70 and 5M. The Pier 70 project was entitled in 2017 and broke ground in May 2018. The project is a
mixed-use, master-planned development to be built over three phases on a site of approximately 28-
acres. The project includes commercial office, residential (affordable and market-rate; for-sale and
rental), neighborhood retail, local manufacturing, PDR, and space for the arts, in addition to an

RESPONSIBILITIES

As a Forest City intern, you will enjoy a work experience exposing you to diverse work teams and their
unique processes. While performing as a valued member of a Forest City team, you will have ample
opportunities to learn from experts, and gain valuable hands-on experience.

This Forest City internship will have a scope of work focused on the Pier 70 project, managed by the
project’s Development Director. The scope of work will be focused on three primary areas of project
planning: transportation, project positioning, and retail. The transportation work is intended to further
the project team’s understanding of the transportation landscape in San Francisco and beyond. The
project positioning work will entail crafting an overall project narrative and approach for the Pier 70
district, and considering how that overall brand will translate into the physical realm as well as
individual building brands. And finally, the retail strategy scope of work will involve considering the full
master-planned project and putting together a comprehensive retail vision and strategy. A
representative example of the types of tasks includes:

Transportation
- Survey of current parking approach and utilization in projects throughout San Francisco.
- Survey of Transportation Management Agencies established across the nation, including entity
formation approach and best practices.
