Green Streets
San Francisco is a city of neighborhood villages, and Green Streets connects you to them. Through lush pop-up town squares, playful school streets, and other experimental gathering spaces, neighbors slow down, get to know one another, and experience the potential of their streets.
Each activation is designed and built in partnership with local communities, cultivating neighborhood leaders who are committed to caring for the places where they live. What starts as an event can grow into a recurring pilot project that helps neighbors create a greener and more vibrant future.
Green Streets uses nature to build bridges between neighbors and neighborhoods. By weaving greenery into our city's streets, we're creating the conditions for connection, and reimagining our public spaces as part of a living, growing, thriving network. This network grows like a vine, stretching outward from one neighborhood to the next to connect the entire city.
