Проект благоустройства Geary Boulevard

Thanks to the almost 1,600 respondents who gave us feedback on design details for the new trees and decorative sidewalks that will be a part of the Geary Boulevard Improvement Project. We will be analyzing your feedback and announcing the selected tree species and decorative sidewalk design themes soon.

The Geary Boulevard Improvement Project will include a community enhancement element to beautify the corridor. In April 2024, Richmond District residents and businesses were asked to share their thoughts about potential enhancements along Geary Boulevard between Stanyan Street and 34th Avenue. And in September 2024, residents and businesses weighed in on what tree species and decorative sidewalk designs they liked the best. We will be analyzing your feedback and announcing the decorative sidewalk design themes soon!

Over 1,800 responses were submitted via online survey and at our Open House event!

Based on the results of the survey, the project’s community enhancement element will include:

  • About 50 new street trees; and
  • Decorative concrete with glass aggregate sidewalk designs at some Rapid bus stops, with designs featuring the nature of the Richmond District.

The options below were part of the most recent survey, and a summary of the survey results will be shared soon.


Decorative Sidewalk Options

Potential nature themes for the bus stop sidewalk designs:

  • Native flora and fauna
  • Sand dunes and ocean waves
  • Golden Gate Park and greenery
  • Fog with Golden Gate Bridge
  • Lands End and Seal Rock

These potential tree species were selected for their suitability to thrive in an urban environment.

Tree options based on locations.

These selected enhancements will be constructed along with other transit and safety improvements in two to three years, following SFPUC’s underground utility work.
