    The Route for the San Francisco Popos hike (Privately Owned Public Open Spaces) February15, 2018 Dave Weinstein Copyright 2018 El Cerrito Trail Trekkers. No reproduction without express permission Intro: Mandated by 1985 the city’s downtown plan for new office developments in downtown, these are private spaces are required to be open to the public. Many are open only during business hours but others are public plazas open all the time. Some were created earlier, by developers seeking density bonuses in exchange, or the like. Problem is, people don’t know about many of these open spaces. (Sort of like the trails in El Cerrito.) In 2013 Chronicle urban writer John King wrote a series critiquing the way come owners made their spaces known, and how poorly the city enforced the rules. Since then thanks to John and increased public interest, things have improved. This tour is an update of a tour Trekkers gave in 2013. We will tour not just POPOS spaces but some other plazas and lobbies that are also open to the public, but without the POPOS mandate. We will note how many of these spaces contain excellent art, making downtown very much an open air and lobby museum that itself is too little known. Note: As performed on February 15, we did not get to all of these sites due to time constraints. We got to most, though! Crown Zellerbach 1 One.
