This carnival is the latest part of Mayor London Breed's plan to revitalize downtown.
A weekend street carnival later this month is the first in a series of entertainment and recreation improvements that city officials hope will be the ticket to bolstering San Francisco’s Civic Center.

The San Francisco Recreation and Parks Department recently unveiled a pilot program that brings a skate park, large outdoor chess boards, exercise stations and ping pong tables to UN Plaza. Modeled after spaces in cities like Paris and Madrid, it will also include tables for teqball, a sport that combines elements of soccer and table tennis. The project expects to break ground in September and open before the holidays.
