You’ll see our team working on a few operations and maintenance items in the park this summer, largely in response to community input that we’ve received since the park reopened.

• On May 19-22, a small contractor crew will be on site to raise the sprinkler heads in the synthetic turf portion of the Dog Play Area (DPA). The contractor will be blocking off the portion of the DPA that they are working in but the majority of the DPA will remain open for use.
• Permanent signs are now on order to replace the temporary signage at the mid-block entrance to the southern meadow. These signs reiterate that no dogs are allowed in the southern meadow except for service and support animals. They also clearly outline the requirements for service and support animals. We’ll install those signs as soon as they’re ready, with the goal of having them installed before the end of June.
• In partnership with the Dogpatch & NW Potrero Hill Green Benefit District, our consulting arborist will do another comprehensive tree assessment of the park this summer.
• The raised boardwalk decking on the southern edge of the park was damaged recently by a fire. This area has been cordoned off and will be repaired as soon as we receive replacement materials.

Esprit Park reopened in February 2025 after a complete renovation (see press release). The park has since returned to regular operations and maintenance, and this will be our last project update for the renovation project.
