Newcomb Model Block Streetscape Project Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony
Tuesday, December 20, 2011
11:00 a.m.
Newcomb Avenue (between Newhall and Phelps)
You are cordially invited to join Mayor Edwin M. Lee, District 10 Supervisor Malia Cohen, the Environmental Protection Agency, the Department of Public Works and the San Francisco Redevelopment Agency to celebrate the completion of the Newcomb Model Block Streetscape Improvement Project.
This project has transformed Newcomb Avenue into one of the most sustainable and green streets in San Francisco with a repeating series of green areas for community use, storm water management and neighborhood beautification. Permeable pavers, traffic calming, raised pedestrian crossings, new street trees and hundreds of new plants will all come together to renew a street that residents and San Franciscans can be truly proud of.
The improvements are part of DPW’s Great Streets Program, which aims to improve the safety and sustainability of the city’s corridors and maximize the use of public space.
The Model Block Program is a San Francisco Redevelopment Agency initiative for the Bayview Hunters Point Redevelopment Project Area that aims to build community and neighborhood stewardship through private and public realm enhancements.

The project is a partnership between the United States Environmental Protection Agency, San Francisco Redevelopment Agency, San Francisco Planning Department, San Francisco Department of Public Works, San Francisco Public Utilities Commission, San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency, the Bayview Hunters Point Project Area Committee and the community.
