Parkmerced is an existing 152-acre neighborhood in San Francisco, originally developed in the 1940’s. The Parkmerced Vision Plan will pioneer a complete transformation from an existing, resource consumptive neighborhood located in San Francisco to a vibrant, pedestrian-focused, efficient community for the future, over 20 to 30 years. This will increase the number of apartment units from 3,221 to 8,900. In addition to the residences, the plan includes the development of retail, markets, and commercial spaces, the realignment of MUNI Metro light rail, neighborhood commons, as well as large open spaces including recreation fields, and walking and bike paths. This includes the construction or reconstruction of all streets and utilities that will serve these facilities.
