Welcome to India Basin Waterfront Park

The India Basin Waterfront Park Project is a partnership between the San Francisco Recreation and Park Department, A. Philip Randolph Institute, Trust for Public Land, San Francisco Foundation, and the Bayview-Hunters Point community.

The project is environmental justice in action and aims to build a park that is both spectacular and crucial to the health of San Francisco’s southeast communities with an emphasis on public access, social equity, waterfront recreation, resiliency to sea level rise, and habitat and wetland restoration and enhancement.

The project plan combines the existing India Basin Shoreline Park area and the recently opened park at 900 Innes into India Basin Waterfront Park, one grand 10-acre waterfront park. The final portion of the project that will renovate India Basin Shoreline Park is anticipated to begin in mid-2025.

India Basin Waterfront Park is one of only a few parks in the nation to be guided by an Equitable Development Plan (EDP) developed by the community. The EDP ensures the park’s features and programming are culturally relevant and directly benefits the Bayview-Hunters Point community. EDP initiatives that are currently being implemented include Bayview Safety Swim and Splash and Rocking the Boat youth programs, the Food Pavilion’s rotating vendor and workshop programming supporting workforce and business development; Artist in Residence programming at the park supporting Arts, Culture and Identity, and more.

India Basin Waterfront Park Wins AIASF Honor Award

India Basin Waterfront Park at 900 Innes Avenue recently received a 2026 American Institute of Architects San Francisco (AIASF) Honor Award in architecture. Located in Bayview-Hunters Point, the park reconnects the neighborhood to the shoreline while honoring the site’s industrial and cultural history through accessible public spaces, restored wetlands, gathering areas and educational programming.

The project, guided by San Francisco’s first Equitable Development Plan, is currently in its final phase of renovations at India Basin Shoreline Park. When completed, India Basin Shoreline Park and the 900 Innes site will combine to form one grand 10-acre waterfront park.

The award recognizes the collaborative work of Jensen Architects, Gustafson Guthrie Nichol and a multidisciplinary design team dedicated to creating a resilient and welcoming public space for generations to come. Learn more at this link.
