SCOPE
The Balboa Park Plaza de Panama Project will restore pedestrian and park uses to Balboa Park’s Central Mesa by removing vehicular access and parking from Plaza de Panama, El Prado, Plaza de California, the Esplanade (Mall), and Pan American Road East. In order to accomplish this objective, the project will re-route vehicular traffic to a new two-way circulation pattern. A new bridge, “Centennial Bridge”, will connect the eastern end of Cabrillo Bridge to Presidents Way via the new “Centennial Road”. Vehicles will access a new parking structure via Centennial Road. The project will also reclaim additional park acreage for visitor use. Specific project components include:a) Plaza de Panama – Eliminate automobile traffic from Plaza de Panama and adjacent promenades. Install paving, lighting, landscaping and other improvements to create an attractive pedestrian space.b) El Prado and Plaza de California – Allow for pedestrian use of El Prado and Plaza de California by re-routing traffic to the bypass road and bridge. Install paving, lighting, landscaping and other improvements to create an attractive pedestrian space.c) Centennial Bridge and Road – Construction of a new two-way bridge and road starting at the east end of the Cabrillo Bridge and continuing through the eucalyptus grove around the southwest corner of the Museum of Man, through the Alcazar parking lot, to the entrance to the new parking structure and intersecting with Presidents Way.d) Alcazar Parking Lot – Reconstruct the Alcazar parking lot to provide additional accessible parking as well as passenger drop-off, loading, and valet.e) The Esplanade (Mall) and Pan American Road – Allow for pedestrian use of the Esplanade and Pan American Road by rerouting traffic. Install paving, lighting, landscaping and other improvements to create an attractive pedestrian space. f) Organ Pavilion Parking Structure, Rooftop Park, and Arizona Street Landfill – Construct a new parking structure with a rooftop park and gardens at the location of an existing surface parking lot south of the Organ Pavilion. The new multi-level underground structure will include three levels of parking. The new rooftop park will be roughly 2.2 acres. Soils from excavation of the parking structure will be exported to the nearby Arizona Street Landfill. Antoinette Sanfilippo - 619-533-3439 asanfilippo@sandiego.gov
