From the Rec & Park Department Project Update Page: "Japantown Peace Plaza Renovation | Construction Has Begun! Look for pedestrian detours
Construction on Japantown Peace Plaza has begun! Thanks to everyone who was able to join our groundbreaking celebration last Saturday.
Now that construction has begun, construction activities you can expect to see this week (4/29-5/3) include:
On Geary Boulevard – Stairs and ramp to the plaza will be closed off for the duration of construction. Pedestrians entering East Mall and West Mall from Geary Boulevard will be detoured through the parking garage.
On Post Street – Plaza access to the East Mall and West Mall remains open. Look for fenced pathways leading to both plaza entrances.
In the coming weeks (5/6-5/22), expect to see access to West Mall from the plaza closed for one week. During this period, pedestrian access to West Mall will be detoured through the garage west of the plaza. Plaza access to the East Mall will remain open during this time via the fenced pathway.
Once this week-long work is completed, plaza access to West Mall will reopen, and then plaza access to East Mall will be closed for one week for similar work.
Throughout the duration of the project, the Japan Center Malls will remain open.
We will post updates about pedestrian detours and other project-related information on the project webpage >>
Thanks for your support and stay tuned for updates!
