About Sunday Streets Bayview/Dogpatch

This will be our 5th year Sunday Streets visits the Bayview and Dogpatch neighborhoods. With over three and a half miles of car-free space, this is one of the longest Sunday Streets routes and a great opportunity to explore San Francisco neighborhoods by bike. In 2014, we’re pleased to partner with the Stern Grove Festival Association for a special live music event anchoring the northern end of the Sunday Streets route at China Basin. Sunday Streets in the Bayview and Dogpatch connects AT&T Park, the Dogpatch, and Bayview via Terry Francois Blvd, Mariposa St, Indiana St, and Third St. For the first time, Sunday Streets will take place on the southbound lanes of Third St between 22nd St and Quesada Ave. Read below for suggested detours. Because this route is so long, we encourage you to bring your bike or skates. If you don’t have wheels, be sure to put on those walking shoes!

Activities and more

There are many amazing organizations and small businesses on and near this route (You can see the full activity list here). This year, kick off your day at Sunday Streets by stopping to dance to some live music at China Basin. That’s right, Grove on the Road will be out with performances by The Family Crest and ODC Dance Other activities in the Stern Grove area include an instrument petting zoo with Magik*Magik Orchestra, Artist Talk with ODC Dance, and Visual arts programming with Trash Mash-Up.
