Alternative 3 – New Presidio Parklands Concept 3
The New Presidio Parklands Alternative
Concepts were developed by James Corner
Field Operations in partnership with the
New Presidio Parklands Project Team, and
emerged from the design submitted during
the “Imagine” phase and subsequent public
input. The following three concepts respond
to public input received to date and may
be modified and/or merged into a single
alternative during the “Design” phase.
Concept 3 offers diverse landscapes and
settings as well as large, occupiable open
areas. Concept 3 supports a range of group
sizes as well as programs and experiences,
from individual pursuits and small gatherings
to larger social activities and special events.
Concept 3 includes a Youth Campus that
comprises the Crissy Field Center (Building
603) and a Learning Landscape at the base
of the bluff where outdoor environmental
education and immersive exhibits are offered.
Crissy Field Center is expanded, and two
modest structures are added nearby to
accommodate gathering and programs.
The Observation Post (Building 211) is
demolished and replaced with a new, larger
public-serving building that occupies a central
site. The new building is conceived of as two
distinct spaces, each with sloping, green roofs
that are accessible.
Building 201 is moved to its permanent
location on the west side of Halleck Street and
rehabilitated by the Presidio Parkway (Doyle
Drive) project. 210 is rehabilitated as the new
Presidio Visitor Center under a separate Trust
action. 215 remains the Transit Center.
Concept 3 includes three overlooks. A
small, east-facing amphitheater offers seating
and space for performances. The plaza is
expanded to provide a gathering area west of
the Visitor Center features seating areas and a
fire pit.
Key elements: Youth Campus, promenade,
pathways, lawns, and gardens; Central Zocalo
and a gathering area with fire pit; terraced
seating, three overlooks, and a small-scale
amphitheater; and 61,100 square feet of
building space and 64 parking spaces.
