Director, Landscape Architect GLS Landscape | Architecture San Francisco, California
Join the Northern California Chapter of ASLA for the WILA Walk to explore the SOMA district, including the East Cut neighborhood, San Francisco’s new Downtown, and Yerba Buena District, the original cultural and civic institutional hub at SOMA. We will see and discuss an energetic mix of sleek residential and commercial high rises, repurposed live-work historic buildings, small businesses, corporate headquarters, new streetscapes, and public green spaces as well as a revitalization plan for the original cultural hub. This route will highlight urban spaces, streetscapes, public art, architecture, and master plans that were planned, designed by, and/or influenced by women.
Time and Location: On Monday, November 14, will meet at 7:00 am at the Host Chapter Booth at the Moscone Center and return to the Moscone Center by 8:30 am. The walk will include a few stops and a refreshment break.
Cost: Free for all registered conference attendees
