Market Street has long served as San Francisco’s civic spine, but its future is at a turning point. This panel, led by SITELAB urban studio—creators of the award-winning 4-Mile Bench, a bold act of inclusion and abundance—brings together the Market Street Competition Hosts (ULI and Civiv Joy Fund), Competition Juror John King (Urban Design Critic, formerly of the San Francisco Chronicle), Competition Winner, Laura Crescimano (Founding Principal of SITELAB urban studio), and Competition Honorable Mention Alex Yuen (Co-founder and Design Director of CO- (Collective Operations)).
Attendees will hear new visions for how Market Street can evolve to meet the needs of residents, businesses, and visitors while remaining a vibrant, inclusive public space. The discussion will explore how design, public engagement, and forward-thinking planning can guide the transformation of this critical thoroughfare for decades to come.
Drinks and light snacks will be provided!
