Even as we comply with City mandates, outlined below, we enjoy the beauty and uplifting energies of Alta Plaza Park. Spring is here…and the plantings are in full bloom with more to come! Plants underwritten by the Friends of Alta Plaza Park (FOAPP) for installation at the Washington/Steiner beds have been secured at the Palace of Fine Arts greenhouse. There are 235 plants in all, and a project of this size will require scheduling a substantial gardener team when social distancing procedures are established.

The Friends of Alta Plaza Park board has elected to postpone further development plans for solar lighting and concrete pathways for the next three months. The economic turnaround will be monitored on a quarterly basis to reevaluate public/private funding options. We will continue to keep you informed as developments arise.
