As cities go, San Francisco stands out from the crowd. From its cellivability of our City by bestowing our coveted Beautification Awards. 2010 Beautification Award winners included: Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy: Land's End Revitalization • Cohen Alley, known as the Tenderloin National Forest • Pennsylvania Garden • Mint Plaza
Our partnerships with civic leaders and community organizations promote healthy and sustainable urban planning and design policies and programs. Examples include:
• San Francisco Neighborhood Conservation Project to identify, prioritize and preserve those special assets that give our neighborhoods character and make them livable
• The No New Billboards campaign, which banned all new billboards in San Francisco
• The Lake Merced Task Force, to preserve the City’s one-of-a-kind freshwater lake
• San Francisco Green Schoolyard Alliance, creating outdoor classrooms in our public schools
• Utility Box Policy Group, to control the proliferation of and reduce graffiti on utility boxes
• Public Banner Watchdogs, to ensure community banners on public utility poles don’t become a venue for commercial advertising and the Graffiti Abatement Program to reduce the incidence of graffiti
