A New Era Begins at Dolores Park on March 1

Please join Supervisor Scott Wiener, San Francisco Recreation and Park Department
GM Phil Ginsburg, Dolores Park Works and park advocates for a groundbreaking ceremony
of world-famous Mission Dolores Park, Saturday, March 1, 2014, at 10 a.m.

For nearly a century, San Franciscans have enjoyed the 16 acres of recreational 
opportunities provided by Mission Dolores Park. To help keep up with the use of 
the park and make much-needed infrastructure improvements, over 71% of San Francisco
voters approved the 2008 Clean and Safe Neighborhood Parks Bond, a $185 million 
general obligation bond that includes $13.2 million to improve Mission Dolores Park.

When the park is completed, you will find new bathrooms, renovated tennis and basketball
courts, a new multi-use court, two improved designated off-leash dog play areas,
 new bike racks, new pathways, a new overlook in the southeast corner, improved 
irrigation, and improved ADA access.
