We first heard talk of this project over two years ago, and today Uptown Almanac reports that it is actually finally going to happen:
[A]ccording to the SF Skateboarding Association, the $3 million dollar project is expected to break ground this fall, potentially as soon as September.
Read on for conceptual illustrations, project history and commentary.
No bowls?!? WEAKSAUCE!!!
Think of it this way, we have the sf hills for bowls.
There’s a nice bowl at Potrero Del Sol. This is plaza style, meant to emulate and recognize SF’s deep street skating history.
SF has three parks with bowls and no parks with any real street terrain, so this is a nice alternative if you don’t want to deal with the slashdogs.
slashdogs are people too.
Plus, there would be a shit load of trash if there were bowls.
not so crazy about the skatepark (im not against it, Im super for it, i just dont skate), but i have to say…..FUCK YEAH.
i have to say fuck you.
not so crazy about another sitting around park. (im not against it, im super excited, i just don’t need another place to sit on my ass drinking beer all day)
I do! Miniparks are so mainstream.
