FAQ: What are your thoughts on the proposal to revitalize several piers along the Embarcadero?

A: The current proposal to rebuild Pier 30 and 32 along the Embarcadero is slated to include an outdoor swimming pool, kayak launch, office space, retail, recreational facilities and maritime uses. Additionally, the adjacent former parking lot at 330 Seawall would be the site for 714 new residential units.

Revitalizing the piers along the Embarcadero is an excellent opportunity to boost the local economy, create new job opportunities, attract more businesses to the area, and add more housing that the City desperately needs.

By creating new and exciting public spaces, the City will attract more visitors, new potential residents, and will improve the lackluster landscape between two long-standing attractions, the Ferry Building and Oracle Park.

Overall, this proposal has the potential to create numerous benefits for San Francisco, making it an even more vibrant and desirable place to visit and live.
