Major Redevelopment Programs + Community Enhancements

Together, the redevelopment plan amendments for Hunters Point, India Basin Industrial Park, and Bayview Industrial Triangle will establish three major community redevelopment programs: and Affordable Housing Program, and Economic Development Program, and a Community Enhancements Program.

A Community Enhancements Program will be established to improve and enhance community character through the creation of Design Guidelines and various improvment/enhancement programs. The Design Guidelines will guide the design and appearance of new construction, particularly mixed-use transit-oriented development along Third Street. Improvement and enhancement programs will include Streetscape Plans for the three major roadways in the community: (1) Third Street; (2) the northern route into the Shipyard along Carroll Avenue and a proposed connection across Yosemite Slough.

A Framework Open Space Program will be created to guide the improvement, maintenance and programming of publicly owned open space in the area, in concert with the Recreation and Park Department. In addition, staff will strive to coordinate with local and state agencies regarding other open space resources in the BVHP area, including potential open space land along the waterfront of the San Francisco Bay, India Basin, South Basin and Yosemite Slough, through a Comprehensive Open Space Strategy.

Agency staff is also working with the Department of Public Works and other city departments and the San Francisco County Transportation Authority on a number of major public improvements for BVHP. Currently, the Department of Public Works is evaluating a southern arterial route between U.S. Highway 101 and the Hunters Point Shipyard across Yosemite Slough, and a Carroll Avenue Overpass that would create an arterial connection along Carroll Avenue between the South Basin area east of Third Street and Bayshore Boulevard.
