Have also consulted with hrc, cvc and cdm (who i have inclu= ded here). As you and I discussed Friday, we are still identifying activities hrc coul= d be involved in once she leaves the State Department. We are presuming the= re will be a foundation piece but there are obviously other things and we a= re still in the early stages of that decision-making process. As cdm remind= ed me today, as there is a review going on about the nature of business tha= t can take place on CF property, the outcome will presumably affect the nat= ure of the office hrc will be able to have at CF. Since in the near term, w= e are talking about a small staff that could be handling potentially more t= han just charitable activity, we may have to be elsewhere. Plus we still ha= ve the logistical concern that her daily commute to water street will be ch= allenging. Given the many uncertainties, we think the best way to proceed is for you t= o take space for CF growth that you envision leaving open the possibility o= f a small hrc footprint but not outlining specific space for her now. you s= eemed to think that you had the need for additional space regardless of our= plan. Am happy to discuss further ayc.=20 ________________________________________ From: Laura Graham [lgraham@clintonfoundation.org] Sent: Monday, November 07, 2011 3:12 PM To: Huma Abedin Cc: Diane Reynolds; john.podesta@gmail.com Subject: Office Space Huma, Hope you are feeling well. I wanted to touch base with you and set up a ca= ll for this week =96 a meeting would be great but if not at least a call = =96 to discuss space. As you may know from the traffic btw Chelsea and I l= ast week which included Bruce and Podesta, I had a meeting and walk through= for the additional space available at 77 Water Street. They have an inter= ested party (who today just asked for a draft lease =96 so that is moving q= uickly) on the table for part of the space so if we want additional space, = we need to move quickly. Goldman, b/c of their relationship with us, is de= laying the drafting of a lease for this interested party until they get a b= etter sense from us but they cannot hold them off too much longer. I brief= ed John this am and then he and I met with Bob regarding CGI needs. It wou= ld be great if we could arrange a call to discuss the Secretary=92s needs f= or this week and I can have John and/or Bob join as needed. Michelle is co= pied here for follow up on setting a time for a meeting or call at your con= venience. In meantime, Genzler via Goldman Sachs is awaiting our details t= o do test fit options.
