From Grey To Green: A Neighborhood Vision Takes Root
Share your ideas and let your voice be heard as we transform the city-owned parking lot in the Mission District on 17 & Folsom into a community center where working families can live, work and play. The City's Planning Department together with Recreation and Parks needs you to advise them on the sorts of structures, activities and programs that are needed on this site.
