San Francisco Better Market Street project will initiate a 6-to-12-month series of trials starting in September 2009, including an integrated package of landscaping, sidewalk cafes and storefront improvements, transit improvements, street and traffic improvements, and other physical improvements that are iterative and are regularly monitored and refined as needed. The project team will work with community partners, including BOMA San Francisco, to gather on-the-ground data that will inform the desired improvements for Market Street and other streets serving surrounding districts and neighborhoods.
Here is your opportunity to offer your perspective on what works and what needs to be improved or changed during the trial period. As a BOMA San Francisco member and commercial real estate professional, your perspective will inform both immediate operational decisions and the longer-term vision for Market Street and surrounding areas.

I notice that the photo above "sociability" was taken at 1275 Market Street during a People in Plazas free public concert. (www.peopleinplazas.org)
ReplyDeleteMany buildings on or near Market Street sponsor venues for the program and have done so for years. The program truly contributes to a Better Market Street. Summer 2009 we had 16 open plazas activated with 145 noon time concerts.
