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.
