I’ll bet you the planned Helipad is to cost effectively transport visiting basketball players to the forthcoming waterfront home of the San Francisco Warriors.

I’m glad I knew this Mission before there were Helicopters.

This is the new heliport for the under construction UCSF hospital going in at China Basin. Guess google didn’t get the memo.

If you zoom in, it looks like a far more reasonable spot for a helicopter.

I think it might have been one in the past, or maybe there was mistake.

Anyways – in the current FAA data in my flight planning application, there doesn’t seem to be a China Basin Heliport anywhere.
