Visitacion Valley

Neighborhood planning

Details

Groundworks Office was tasked to envision the 20-acre redevelopment of the former Schlage Lock Factory site, located in San Francisco’s Visitacion Valley. The project includes nearly 1700 residential units; 50,000 square feet of commercial space and the renovation of a historic building that will operate as a prized community resource.

Groundworks Office’s role is designing all of the on structure landscape spaces, which includes two promenades, 5 courtyards and 5 roof decks. Planned for delivery in early 2019, the new development will have very strong connections to both SFMUNI and CalTrains, as well the development will host two new public parks in a neighborhood that lacks significant access to public open space amenities.
