Dedicated attention from surrounding neighbors has transformed the site into a community greenspace and pedestrian corridor serving the Alemany Farmers’ Market and nearby schools and shopping districts. \nWe completed our garden implementation in spring 2019 and celebrated with a ribbon-cutting ceremony on June 8 (see our news page). The San Francisco Chronicle calls our new garden “stunning\,” “gorgeous\,” and a “cheerful splash of public art that will probably become a photo hot spot.” \nIn addition\, San Francisco Beautiful honored us with the 2019 Placemaking Award for creating a sense of identity in a public space. We are grateful to Andre Rothblatt\, founding member of Tompkins Stairway Garden\, for our multicolored\, zigzag tile design\, inspired by the “Steps to Peace” painted by youth in the Syrian town of Deir Atiyah. Arterra Landscape Architects generously provided our landscape design. \nThe stairs link Tompkins Avenue between Nevada and Putnam Streets in the southeast area of Bernal Heights. The next time you’re in the neighborhood\, stop by! \n\n\nHelp Us Grow a Greener\, Healthier San Francisco

SUMMARY:Vision Boulevard Block Party
DESCRIPTION:Join us and learn more about Vision Boulevard.  \nThe Central Freeway stub has corroded the heart of San Francisco for six decades. It looms over Division and 13th Streets and carves into the nexus of centrally-located neighborhoods and City districts. It is a significant hazard\, with several of the city’s most dangerous intersections underneath or part of the Central Freeway. Toxic vehicle and roadway particulates adversely affect nearby residents and workers. It blocks countless benefits\, like desperately needed new housing\, new transit opportunities\, and green space. Its vestigial infrastructure is a barrier to neighborhood connectivity. It must go. \n \nEnter Vision Blvd\, a grassroots San Francisco campaign that calls for the complete removal of the Central Freeway once and for all. We are a group of designers\, public school educators\, traffic engineers\, and community members who deeply care about San Francisco and want to see it reach its full potential\, but we can’t do this alone. \n \nFor the first time since the inception of Vision Blvd\, we are entering a phase of important fundraising that will help us accomplish our goals. Here are the two main areas of need we are looking to address: \n\nResearch and Studies: Vision Blvd will help sponsor studies centered on transportation\, housing\, environmental impacts\, and opportunities for green space along the 13th and Division Streets corridor. Professionals with deep expertise will conduct these studies and help us develop a proposal that satisfies all stakeholders\, looks to the future\, and addresses all community needs.\nEvents & Organization: Vision Blvd is currently a pro bono effort. However\, there are various costs\, like maintaining our digital resources and creating promotional materials. We will also host various events all over San Francisco to highlight our effort\, spread awareness\, gather community input\, and have fun. For example\, we will host a block party on June 1st\, requiring City permits\, campaign materials\, tables\, canopies\, entertainment\, food and drinks\, and many other resources.\n\n\nVision Boulevard Block Party

The vision encompasses a multifaceted approach to urban renewal\, featuring a play and discovery zone for children\, a meticulously curated garden\, and a communal gathering spot designed to foster connections and create lasting memories. \nA Vision Coming to Life \nThe journey from concept to realization for the Ogden Avenue Gardens project is a story of determination\, collaboration\, and community spirit.
