The neighborhood’s tapestry is one of renown museums and galleries, landscaped gardens, and major convention facilities. There are unique places to dine, shop, and play. Amid all of this is an exhibition of public art, culinary and architectural excellence, and CITY AT NIGHT: YERBA BUENA UNDER A FULL MOON entertainment offerings unique to the city. To sustain and improve Yerba Buena’s unique characteristics, the YBCBD provides services to help make the neighborhood cleaner, safer, and even more inviting. Thank you to all who help us make Yerba Buena an exceptional place for people of all ages and backgrounds. It’s been an exciting and productive year. We’re thrilled that public art and artistry in the neighborhood grew to new heights — adding to unexpected moments of inspiration and wonder. As part of the Moscone Center expansion, there are now several new works of public art in and around the Moscone Center and Yerba Buena Gardens. The new collection augments major works that the YBCBD helped bring to the neighborhood. Yerba Buena’s ingenuity also extends to its renowned restaurants, architecture, and landscaped spaces. It is reflected in the hundreds of different performances each year of the Yerba Buena Gardens Festival, at the YBCBD’s annual Yerba Buena Night of music, dance and performance, and at our monthly theatrical neighborhood walks.

It is about lost souls who wander the streets with no home or reality chasing a drug that, in turn, chases them. It is about the damage they instill on themselves and the fabric of their City. There is a seething, simmering anger that is boiling over into outrage. Property crimes are out of control.
