Parks & Open Space

Adding hundreds of acres of inclusive spaces

The Parks and Open Space Plan for Treasure Island (which includes Yerba Buena Island) provides approximately 290 acres of new open space and parks. Newly constructed facilities and improvements are delivered in phases based on the overall TI/YBI development project schedule. One Treasure Island’s role is to ensure that all of these spaces are welcoming and inclusive to all residents, ensuring a vibrant, inclusive community.
