Potrero Yard

Potrero Yard

This proposal replaces a century-old bus yard with a modern bus facility and housing. The bus facility, which services a fleet of new battery-electric buses, occupies the building podium behind a liner of SFMTA offices, residential lobbies, childcare and family services, and other community uses. A lobby on Mariposa Street provides access to public-facing SFMTA offices and a direct visual connection to bus maintenance areas. The massing of the residential units steps up to the south to avoid shading Franklin Square. residential units.
