Direction
Starting at Claes Oldenburg’s “Cupid’s Span,” with its spectacular view of the Bay Bridge and Treasure Island, we’ll explore the vibrant public art that lines the 13-mile Blue Greenway waterfront trail.
Our route circles South Beach Marina and Oracle Park, following Mission Creek, where floating homes maintain a distinct San Francisco bohemian spirit. We’ll discover the many ways people engage with the waterfront—from kayaking and paddleboarding in China Basin to the historic boat clubs and yacht clubs that have anchored this community for generations.
Along the way, we’ll view the striking modern architecture of the UCSF Mission Bay campus and the Chase Center, home of the Golden State Warriors, seeing how new development is reshaping the city’s relationship with its waterfront.
