The Fort Point District 100 Acres Open Space public engagement and concept design process will serve as a guide for future development of open spaces in the area. 

Current goals of the project include:
  • Provide a vision and programmatic plan for future development of parks and open space that are accessible and available to all.
  • Ensure a diverse and balanced mix of parks uses based on community input and user needs.
  • Develop a system of open space areas that relate to each other, the surrounding built context and the historic Fort Point Channel District.
  • Design landscapes that are adaptive and resilient to climate change impacts including sea level rise, storm surge, heat island, and stormwater, and contribute to neighborhood flood protection.
  • Establish meaningful connections to the Fort Point Channel watersheet and surrounding open space, streets and linear connections, including Harborwalk and the South Bay Harbor Trail.
