Weird intersections. San Francisco is full of them! Pocket Plazas make these spaces more intuitive and enjoyable with the help of natural amenities. Just look at Masonic & Geary for an example of fully envisioned Pocket Plaza.
School Streets are street closures around schools that create safer, more welcoming spaces by limiting car access at school drop-off and pick-up times.
Community Corners add simple amenities like murals and planters to spaces by crosswalks that make them more beautiful, welcoming, and safe.
