Rec & Park is asking for lease changes that would provide more protection of Coit's murals, but also allow after-hours tours, food sales and more.

Neighborhood group Protect Coit Tower wants to ensure the tower's $1 million+ annual revenue is being put back into the murals and park.

The reopening party from 11am–3pm November 14th will include RecPark's mobile recreation, Zumba, food trucks and a free swim at the North Beach Pool.

Rec & Parks will lead the Friends of Washington Square as they do plantings and cleanup at this tiny triangle of park from 9am–noon.

The tree was one of nine designated for removal in coming months due to safety concerns.

The 2.5-acre playground will boast updated landscaping, revamped play areas and more.

Trees, shrubs and grasses are being planted, the rusted fence is being replaced, and a play structure is already up.

Neighbors again opposed the three-month closure of Vallejo between Columbus and Grant at a recent hearing, putting the timeline of the new Poets Plaza in question.
