Eastern Neighborhoods

Eastern Neighborhood

The Eastern Neighborhoods Area Plan consists of several smaller neighborhoods, including South of Market, the Mission, Showplace Square, Central Waterfront, and Potrero Hill. Much of the land use in the Eastern Neighborhoods was historically dedicated to industrial uses, and production, distribution, and repair. Over time, residential and commercial uses began to compete for space with the previous industrial uses.

In 2010, population in the Eastern Neighborhoods Plan Area was 83,930. The Planning Department projects the population to reach 149,570 by 2040, an increase of 78%. The demand for infrastructure related to complete streets, transportation, and open space increased as the population in the neighborhood began to grow. Since the Eastern Neighborhoods Area Plan was initiated in 2008, the City has worked with the community to identify priority projects for implementation. These priorities include a number of projects from the 2008 Area Plan as well as new projects identified through planning efforts that occurred since the Plan was adopted.

The revenues estimated for projects in Eastern Neighborhoods is approximately $431 million, including prior years. The tables on the following page show the Eastern Neighborhoods spending plan, sources of funds, and funding gap.

Central SOMA: The vision of the Central SoMa Plan is to create a social, economic, and environmentally sustainable neighborhood by 2040, with space for approximately 32,000 new jobs and 8,600 new housing units. The Plan will provide public benefits to serve the neighborhood, including affordable housing, transportation, streets improvements, parks and recreation, schools, environmental sustainability, and community services. Funding for these projects will come from new and existing impact fees, Community Facilities District special tax revenues, direct provision by developers, and various other sources.
