BACKGROUND
The San Francisco Recreation and Parks Department and the Board of Supervisors have both voted unanimously to endorse a privately-funded playground within Sue Bierman Park along the Embarcadero and have passed legislation to allow its construction.
And the San Francisco Recreation and Parks Commission's Capital Committee has approved our final location, playground design and Donor Recognition Program.
We are equally excited that Roma Design Group has taken over key elements of the design and planning for our Playground. Roma is one of the top urban and landscape architects in the Bay Area and created the Master Plan for Sue Bierman Park and supervised its recent refurbishing. We could not have a better design partner!
