ISLAIS HYPER-CREEK: A SOCIAL ECOSYSTEM
Islais Hyper-Creek is a vision for Southeast San Francisco, where ecology and industry co-exist in harmony. A large park with a restored tidal creek system and soft shoreline that shares the area with maritime functions, light manufacturing, and logistics, that have existed in the place for decades. The park plays an important role in building physical and social resilience: it retains, conveys and cleans water, protects the surrounding neighborhoods and provides amenities and benefits to the community. The current industrial functions are consolidated on a smaller area, in clusters of complementary programs. This increases their efficiency and provides new economic opportunities.
