San Francisco's City Center | A Forum on the Future - Session 1
Please join us for a digital forum regarding the future of San Francisco's city center, hosted by the San Francisco Chapter of the American Institute of Architects (AIASF) and the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce.
The impacts of COVID and socio-economic disruption have dramatically altered San Francisco's city center. Office vacancy is at record levels, retail tenants are struggling, and public spaces are underutilized. This two-part forum will focus on the social, physical, and economic future of this important regional hub. An exciting group of panelists will share ideas to build upon the innovative responses we saw during the pandemic and to define the next chapter of San Francisco's city center.
