Kerri and Woody introduce the history of the Parkside District in this webinar.
And just like that, our month spotlighting the people, history, and places of the Parkside District for Heritage in the Neighborhoods has come to a close. However, our conversation will continue with YOU!
To follow-up on our #HeritageParkside month, we will host a virtual town hall on August 27th, 6:00 PM PST to discuss potential preservation projects in the district. You don’t have to be a preservation expert to join the conversation, just a neighbor or someone who loves the district and wants to help protect its special places.
For some first project ideas, take a look at our full list of Parkside posts produced throughout the month of July below.
If you’d like to join us, send me an email and I’ll send you the Zoom login details: kyoung@sfheritage.org
We look forward to seeing you there!
