Panhandle Playground Project
Completed and Open to the Public November 2019!
Scope of Work
The renovation of the Panhandle Playground is part of Let’sPlaySF! Initiative , which seeks to inspire creativity and play throughout the City.
In the coming years, 13 playgrounds prioritized for improvement by a citizen task force will have been reimagined and redesigned for this and future generations of San Francisco’s children.
