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\nGreening ProjectsGreening Projects is a dedicated nonprofit organization focused on transforming urban environments into vibrant\, sustainable community spaces.

SUMMARY:Ridge Lane Cleanup Day
DESCRIPTION:Join Your Neighbors for the Ridge Lane Cleanup!\nReady to make a difference in District 11? Roll up your sleeves and help us keep Ridge Lane beautiful. We are hosting our next community cleanup and would love to see you there. \nEvent Details\nDate: Sunday\, March 22nd\, 2026 \nTime: 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM \nLocation: Ridge Lane \nRidge Lane is located in the southern part of San Francisco\, specifically in the Oceanview/Ingleside neighborhood (District 11). The greenway itself is a transformed pedestrian corridor that runs along a former rail right-of-way. \nPrimary Access Point: The address associated with the lane is 1 Ridge Lane\, San Francisco\, CA 94112.\nPathway Details: It stretches between Howth Street and Sargent Street\, offering a landscaped walkway that connects local residents to public transit and neighborhood amenities. \nWhy the Early Start?\nWe have shifted our schedule to a 9:00 AM start to ensure even our busiest neighbors can participate before their Sunday plans begin. It is the perfect way to kick off your morning with some fresh air and community spirit. \nRefreshments Provided\nNo need to worry about fuel. We will have plenty of snacks and drinks on hand to keep your energy up while we work. Come for the cleanup\, stay for the treats\, and leave satisfied with a job well done. \nWe look forward to seeing the D11 community come together to keep our neighborhood shining. Jump in and let’s get to work! \n\nWhat is Ridge Lane\nRidge Lane is a city-owned street that runs from Josiah/Howth Avenue to San Jose. Bordering the neighborhood once known as Columbia Heights\, the path has been neglected and needs transformation so neighbors can use the space and navigate safely. \nWhat is Ridge Lane Neighbors?\nRidge Lane Neighbors (RLN) was formed in 2013 by a group of Ingleside Residents who came together to transform Ridge Lane into the beautiful walkway our neighborhood deserves. We consider Ridge Lane a neighborhood treasure that some of us live on directly\, and use daily to get to work\, walk the dog\, or stroll to admire the views of the Bay and San Bruno Mountain. \nVoted as SF Park Alliance’s “2017 Volunteers of the year\,” RLN has mobilized action on the lane and has seen the successful transformation of Parcel 1 (from Josiah/Howth Avenues to Margaret/Louisberg Avenues) and Parcel 4 (connecting Caine Avenue to San Miguel Avenue). Work on Parcels 2 and 3 (connecting Margaret/Louisberg Avenues to Caine Avenue) is in progress\, and the group continues to work toward transforming the lane into a beautiful\, safe path that can be enjoyed by the neighborhood. \nRidge Lane Neighbors\nGreening ProjectsGreening Projects is a dedicated nonprofit organization focused on transforming urban environments into vibrant\, sustainable community spaces. By converting underutilized urban land into public parks\, community gardens\, and native habitat corridors\, the organization works to enhance local biodiversity and climate equity. \nThrough collaborative efforts with community members and donors\, Greening Projects aims to create lasting\, multi-generational legacies of environmental health and beauty.
