My fellow San Franciscans, This past week, I joined Supervisor Peskin in announcing a new proposal to refresh and reinvigorate Powell Street between the Cable Car turnaround and Union Square. The $6 million plan will reinvigorate this important corridor with capital investments in the promenade and funding to help fill vacant storefront as part of the broader plan to support Union Square and Downtown recovery. Powell Street between Market and Geary is a critical entry corridor into Union Square. Every day, thousands of employees and visitors exit BART and Muni at Powell Street Station, come up through Hallidie Plaza and head north, alongside San Francisco's iconic cable cars, into the heart of the Union Square District. Powell Street Proposal $4 Mi l l ion: Powe l l St reet Promenade Improvements This project would replace the existing metallic sidewalk extensions, which are now past their useful lifespan, with a simple, clean and elegant new sidewalk treatment, creating a unified widened sidewalk from Market Street to Geary. The design approach would aim to call attention to and celebrate the cable cars and Powell's beautiful buildings. SFMTA has identified $2 million toward this project and $2 million will come from my proposed upcoming budget to support this project. $2 million: Public-Private Approach to Filling Vacant Storefronts on Powell Street These funds will be used to incentivize and jumpstart up to 10 new tenancies in storefronts along Powell Street. They could be used to help subsidize costly tenant improvements or provide direct subsidy to other aspects of a new business' start-up costs. The funds would only be made available once a landlord and tenant had reached tentative agreement on lease terms. $2 million will also come from my proposed upcoming budget to support this proposal. Ef forts to Support Union Square and Downtown This initiative is part of a broader plan to reinvigorate and support Union Square and Downtown, which includes legis lat ion spearheaded by President Peskin and myself. That legislation incudes targeted zoning changes to allow additional flexibility for new and diversified uses and activities in Union Square. Responding to both the pre-pandemic impacts of online shopping and to post-pandemic shifts in the retail industry, the legislation allows a wider range of uses to better activate streets and buildings. On upper floors, that includes allowing for additional office, service, design and retail uses; and on ground floors allowing for indoor and outdoor entertainment, flexible retail workspaces, and larger retailers that will make the area more attractive for businesses, employees, and visitors alike. We need to change how we do things in this City to support our Downtown and Union Square. This stretch of Powell Street should be a destination filled with activity, shopping, and dining. This proposal is about not only improving this area, but also continuing to send a message that we are going to do everything we can to make our Downtown a successful and thriving place for decades to come.
