MILLER COMPANY SELECTED FOR ALTA PLAZA PARK

September 16, 2014 - Miller Company has been selected to work with Friends of Alta Plaza Park, neighborhood residents and park users to create a new long range Landscape Master Plan for Alta Plaza Park. The 12-acre park is located in the heart of Pacific Heights between Clay, Scott, Jackson, and Steiner Streets in San Francisco. Originally designed by John McLaren in 1888, the park is a neighborhood resource as well as a destination for park users city wide that features magnificent views of the city and the bay, and has fallen into disrepair over the years with decaying pathways and aging infrastructure. Miller Company is facilitating three open community meetings where public input will be encouraged in an open dialogue.   Once completed the Master Plan will be presented to the Recreation and Parks Commission with the intention of establishing a process for implementing the renovations and park improvement features. Stay tuned for more information on this exciting project!

THE SECOND PHASE OF FALLEN BRIDGE PARK IS NOW COMPLETE!

August 18, 2014 - The second phase of Fallen Bridge Park is now complete and neighbors are actively using the area for lively pétanque games, dog walking, and simple relaxation.  Miller Company continued our work on the site with the construction of new stone walls along the sidewalk, the creation of a level active court for neighborhood games, site retaining walls, and new native plantings. Neighborhood volunteers assisted with the planting again as they did on the first phase of work.

We are hoping to complete the project within the next year with the installation of an new access ramp, new plantings, and the continuation of the curbside stone wall, tying phases one and two together. We are happy to have assisted the community with design and installation service. The transformation of this once neglected site adjacent to the 101 Freeway sound wall is nearly complete.  It has now become a beautiful urban wayside park that invites neighborhood use and attracts birds and butterflies too!

FALLEN BRIDGE PARK FEATURED IN SF CHRONICLE
