What's Next?
Beyond just providing more open public space for San Francisco, the Parklet Program has developed into a global phenomenon inspiring cities around the world to give residents the power to transform underutilized places into open public spaces—a radically bottom-up approach to urban planning and civic engagement. As the concept goes global, City staff is working to ensure people in all neighborhoods across San Francisco have access to the open public space that parklets can provide.

“Success for me is being able to expand the program to areas of need where there's either not great access to open space or the public realm doesn't have a lot of investment in it.”
