District 7

In July 2016, San Francisco Public Works began roadway improvements on San Marcos and Santa Rita avenues that would include sewer replacement, stairway repair, concrete work on curbs, and sidewalk and driveway replacement. All sewers have been visually inspected via video camera and evaluated by San Francisco’s Public Utility Commission. An evaluation and condition assessment of the sewers under this project were completed and identified for full segment replacement. During detailed design, we explored trenchless technologies.

The Ocean Avenue Streetscape Improvements Project extends from Manor Drive to Brighton Avenue on Ocean Avenue in the Westwood Park and Ingleside neighborhood of District 7. Work will consist of sidewalk demolition, unit paver installations, plating area expansions, potted planter installations, palm tree planting infills, irrigation systems, traffic routing and all associated work.

The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) is repaving Sloat Boulevard between Skyline Boulevard and 19th Avenue.  Work began in April 2017.  The project includes the following elements:

Ocean Avenue is an important city arterial that links the Ingleside, Lake Merced, Twin Peaks, and Excelsior neighborhoods, and connects the adjacent communities to city and regional transportation services such as BART and Muni via the Balboa Park Station, I-280 Freeway, Muni K Line, and the Muni Phelan Loop. In addition, Ocean Ave hosts many neighborhood and civic services that impact the city at-large: City College of San Francisco, Balboa Park, Lick-Wilmerding High School, and the Ocean Ave commercial corridor.

The $248 million Road Repaving and Street Safety Bond was approved by voters in November 2011. With it, the City is repaving streets in neighborhoods throughout San Francisco; repairing deteriorating bridges, overpasses and stairways; and making traffic, pedestrian and bicycle and safety improvements.
 

The 1.2 acre site, on a plateau of a steep hillside, can be categorized into three levels: the upper level with the main level clubhouse and outdoor seating area; the intermediate level with the clubhouse basement and play area; and the lower level consisting of outdoor sport courts.

The Laguna Honda Hospital Replacement Program includes the construction and renovation of three campuses: the South Residence Building, the Link Building, and the East Residence Building. Together, they will accommodate 780 beds and it will be the first green hospital to implement sustainable features in its design, construction, and operations. The goal is to meet a Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Certified rating under the U.S. Green Building Council.
 

In February, 2010 we received the Project of the year Award from the American Public Works Association (APWA), Northern California Chapter, in the less than $5 million category of Historical Restoration/Preservation, for the Sunnyside Conservatory Renovation Project.
 

The award represents outstanding contributions to public works in Northern California and was officially announced at the February 25th, 2010 Northern California Chapter luncheon where the winners gave a presentation of their project work.
 

The renovated building was certified as LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Gold by the U.S. Green Building Council.
 

Designed by architects Appleton and Wolfard, the Merced Branch was the 25th in the SFPL system. Built at a cost of $137,511, it was constructed in 1957 and opened on January 24, 1958.
