The new Telegraph Hill skate park

The final designs for the Telegraph Hill skate park have been released by designers Gravity. The refreshed design is a result of extra funding secured by campaign group SPAG.


The design loops around the basketball courts and sinks in to the grass bank, in attempt to minimise the impact on sightlines and reduce noise. It now looks like a pretty impressive facility, that will encourage kids to skate for longer periods, keeping them in the park and off the streets, which was the initial impetus behind the project. We understand work is due to start in November.

Thanks to Dan for the tip-off.
