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
