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.

The second item in the San Francisco Triple Play is JFK Promenade in Golden Gate Park which was approved by the voters in November 2022 with a resounding 63 percent YES vote
On November 5 The People of San Francisco will have the opportunity to complete the environmental Triple Play and ensure The City of St. Francis is an international environmental oasis.
