San Francisco News: Transbay Transit Center Meetings Today

This important San Francisco News update is about an today's Transbay Transit Center-related meetings. As you may know, the San Francisco Transbay Transit Center is currently under construction, replacing the demolished Transbay Terminal.

Part of the new development, with a 1000-foot skyscraper at its center, includes a giant, dramatic rooftop park. The park has always been a focus of discussion and debate, shown in my video, below, from the design competition:



On today, Wednesday, June 22nd there will be not one but two meetings on the design vision for the rooftop park. In this community meeting, you can meet the renowned landscape architects Peter Walker and Partners. The first of the two meetings was held at 12 noon, and the second will be at 6:30 PM this evening, and at the offices of the Transbay Joint Powers Authority, at 201 Mission Street, in San Francisco, in Suite 2100.

And to RSVP to this event, please email Stephanie Reichin at Stephanie@Singersf.com

A reminder folks, that there will be a six-acre park, and have the overall design presented, is a done deal. The best time to issue objections was when my video was created. To get some idea of what the finished product will look like, take time to review this video, below, narrated by Peter Coyote:



Whatever your view, please attend this evening's meeting!
