  8. History Connected to the Past Moving T owards the Future The Haight Street of today is markedly different than the Haight Street of past generations but many aspects of the public realm remain relatively unchanged. The narrow sidewalks encountered along Haight Street were built long before the street became the crowded destination that it is today. Furthermore, navigating the residential side streets to arrive at the commercial corridor can be difficult for outside visitors. This neighborhood, perhaps more than any other in our city, will always be associated with elements of the past -- and it is for this reason that the future design of Haight Street must enable the greatest possible degree of flexibility by creating urban spaces that are able to evolve with the changing demands of the neighborhood.

  9. Background Global Reach Regional Appeal Local Character The Upper Haight Streetscape Improvement Project encompasses half a mile long urban space which spans one of the most socially diverse and iconic neighborhoods in the United States. Haight Street is a local treasure layered with a history of connection, activism, entertainment, tolerance, community, and counter-culture. The place tells its own story through its distinct neighborhood character, thriving commercial corridor, and the global appeal that brings international visitors to Haight Street every day. Moving forward, we seek to enrich an already compelling story and bring this urban space up to date through new lighting, embedded way-finding, neighborhood greening, and expanded pedestrian spaces. These few simple features allow the narrative of Haight Street to remain connected to the past while also providing the necessary opportunities to shape new stories well into the future.
