Since early 2007, we have held over 100 meetings with our residents, neighbors, and other stakeholders to gather input and share our vision for revitalizing Parkmerced for the future. These have ranged from small group briefings to large public workshops, and we look forward to continued discussions throughout the coming year and beyond. Please click here to view past presentations, bulletins and meeting summaries which reflect the information we've been sharing and the feedback we've heard.
Tell us what you think!
As we continue to refine our plans, we’d like to better understand what interests you most. Please click here to take our brief 7 question survey before August 15th.
