The public space between City Hall and Market Street is a commons where increasingly diverse groups of people have a chance to become a community. The three major public spaces that comprise Civic Center – Civic Center Plaza, Fulton Street, and United Nations Plaza – are not only the physical center of a rapidly transforming neighborhood but also the heart of a city that craves public spaces to gather people and experience civic life. Hear from city agencies about the current projects and the future plans that will activate, redesign and steward this important space and make it a beacon of San Francisco's inclusive values.
