SPUR Walking Tour: EcoCenter at Heron’s Head Park
"Now under construction, the EcoCenter at Heron's Head Park will be the first environmental education facility in southeast San Francisco, and San Francisco’s first 100 percent “off-grid” building. This tour, with Laurie Schoeman from Literacy for Environmental Justice and David Beaupre of the Port of San Francisco, also visits the site of the planned Eco-Industrial Park in the backlands of Piers 90-94."
