So much great energy today in Lakeside Village, Golden Gate Heights, Balboa Terrace and other areas in District 7 for this month’s Neighborhood Beautification Day — bringing together community volunteers and Public Works staff to green and clean our neighborhoods. Together!

09/11/2026

Today, we mark 25 years since the September 11, 2001 attacks with remembrance and reflection.

The City and County of San Francisco - Government stands in solidarity with New York City and communities across our nation as we honor the lives lost, the families forever changed, and all who responded with courage and compassion. May we continue to carry forward the spirit of unity, service, and humanity that brought us together in the face of unimaginable tragedy.

We remember. We stand together. We will never forget. 💙

Today we remember those killed on September 11, 2001, and honor the responders who risked and in many cases gave their lives to save others.

Happy Labor Day from the team at Public Works!

Yesterday, San Francisco Public Works teams from our cement shop and building repair, paving and street repair and structural engineering sections walked through the closed Broadway Tunnel bore (currently closed as part of the Chinatown Public Health Center improvement project) to look beyond the immediate construction area and assess other potential tunnel improvements.

Areas being evaluated include roadway resurfacing, asphalt and concrete repairs, sidewalk safety improvements, tunnel cleaning, lighting and other maintenance needs. Teams will bring their observations back for further evaluation, including potential scope, cost and budget needs.

Also, the Chinatown Public Health Center project only affects the tunnel area directly below the building, and the contractor is using a temporary containment enclosure inside the tunnel to help control dust and keep construction activities contained.
