With support from Public Works, 40 volunteers joined forces this past weekend to spread out mulch at the Mayfair Drive Street Park. Public Works helped provide the mulch and A-frames for the beautification effort. Thank you to the hard-working volunteers for sprucing up the neighborhood! 💪💚

The Kearny Street footbridge stood for more than half a century. It took 19 days to tear it down. Last month, after years of community outreach and detailed engineering planning, the 300-foot-long concrete-and-steel span – weighing more than 3.5 million pounds – came down.
