Francisco Park
View terraces, a community garden, lawn, picnic areas, and specific accessible components make Francisco Park a compact Russian Hill outdoor stop, but its playground area is currently closed for resurfacing.
The playground and Larsen/Lam Picnic Area are closed for resurfacing. Official City pages disagree on the end date—late July versus August 28, 2026—so treat both as closed until a consistent reopening notice appears. The separate Bev & Greg James Picnic Area remains available.
