The Friends of Alta Plaza Park were well represented for the 10th year at the Pacific Heights Residents Association Annual Meeting. Landscape Architect Jeff Miller was on hand to discuss the park's restoration as developed through multiple community meetings in 2014/2015. The Master Plan received Parks Commission approval in 2016. The FOAPP board is working to identify future funding sources for its implementation.
One of the last elements of the current phase of construction, the pathway at Jackson & Pierce has been completed and is open for use.
On Sunday, September 23rd, we celebrated the northside revitalization with over 100 members of the local community. Attendees mingled over refreshments and live music while listening to District 2 Supervisor Catherine Stefani, SF Recreation & Parks General Manager Phil Ginsburg, and Park Commissioners Kat Anderson and Allan Low. We were also joined by Abigail Maher, SF Recreation & Parks Deputy Director of Park Partnerships and Beverly Ng, SF Recreation & Parks Deputy Directory of Policy and Public Affairs. The event was featured in a number of media outlets including The SF Chronicle, The New Fillmore and Hoodline.
A special thank you to our event sponsor, SF Recreation & Parks as well as our event donors, Peet’s Coffee on Fillmore, Trader Joe’s, Jane Bakery, Waldorf Elementary School and Recology.
