Great Famine Memorial Plaza Project | Community Meeting + Civic Design Review Meeting

Rec Park Improvements | All Project Updates Posted on October 17, 2024

We are excited to share two upcoming opportunities in October and November to learn more about the Great Famine Memorial Plaza Project, ask questions, and share your feedback.

This project will construct a concrete platform and guardrail to host future artwork, such as informational plaques and a statue memorializing the Great Famine in Ireland (1845-1852). This project is considered Phase 1 of the Memorial Project. At a later date, the San Francisco Irish Famine Memorial Committee will engage with the San Francisco Arts Commission to commission an artist to design and construct artwork on the Memorial Plaza.
