Crane Cove Park

Crane Cove Park was built out of a bond and a shoreline. The 2008 Clean & Safe Neighborhood Parks bond report describes it as a new major waterfront park adjacent to the Pier 70 shipyard, along Illinois Street in the Dogpatch, and sets a proposed baseline budget of $21,077,525 — construction of $15,612,981, soft costs at 20 percent and a 15 percent contingency — to be met from bond funds. The money came from several directions at once. The Port Commission's 2013 allocation of waterfront park revenue bonds put $8,000,000 against the park in a future issuance and noted it would receive an additional $13.0 million from other funds, including the 2008 parks bond and rent payments from the Transbay Cable dedicated to capital expenditure; the commission separately accepted $1,000,000 of federal congestion mitigation funding, through a state coastal conservancy grant programme, for pedestrian and bicycle improvements within the project area. Then it went out to bid: the commission's calendar carries the authorisation to advertise for competitive bids for construction of Phase 1, alongside the storm drain repairs at Piers 94-96 and the refurbishment of the Copra Crane. The work itself is the largest single payment traceable to any new place here — Gordon N Ball has been paid $19,510,599.33 between 2021 and 2024 on the contract that names the park.
