Keep Upper Great Highway Kid Safe – Vote YES on The November 5, 2024 ballot measure

Creation of this urban park will complete the San Francisco Triple Play.

First was the demolition of the horrid Embarcadero Freeway following the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake. This concrete eyesore was a blight on the San Francisco Bay for decades.
