More Ped Space Coming to Powell Street

Initially reported to be opening in April, the city's last Pavement-to-Parks project will finally be opening along Powell Street in mid-July.  The project will close the parking lane from the end of the cable car mall all the way up to Geary and Union Square.  With a six-month trial timeline, the extra space will be available to the crush of holiday shoppers at the end of the year.
