China Basin Park: A Dynamic Urban Connector | SCAPE

项目陈述

PROJECT STATEMENT

中国盆地公园（China Basin Park）是一座占地约5英亩的滨水公园，也是旧金山新兴社区Mission Rock的公共与文化核心。公园形态以城市设计为主导：起伏的草坡将视线引向东侧海湾；中央广场从南侧迎接步行人流；林荫空间以亲切尺度回应内湾环境；阶梯式露天剧场面向旧金山巨人队球场，形成独特的城市界面。设计充分呼应地域环境特征，将湾区岬角地貌、海岸边缘以及湿地生态的意象融入整体空间之中。公园同时具备应对海平面上升和极端风暴的韧性策略，在预判气候变化风险的基础上，加强人与水环境的联系，提供开阔视野，并打造具有城市标识性的公共目的地。

China Basin Park is a 5-acre waterfront park and cultural centerpiece of San Francisco’s new Mission Rock neighborhood. Urban design concepts drove the form of the park: a sculpted lawn frames views of the bay to the east, a Central Plaza greets pedestrians from the south, a shady grove meets the intimate scale of the basin, and an amphitheater faces the San Francisco Giants ballpark. China Basin Park magnifies local environs—the region’s headlands, coastal edges, and wetland ecologies are echoed throughout the design. Designed to reduce risk from sea level rise and storm events, the park anticipates threats of climate change while connecting visitors to water, providing expansive views, and creating an iconic destination for San Francisco.

项目说明

PROJECT NARRATIVE

以旧金山湾的生态系统为核心，中国盆地公园是一座占地约5英亩的滨水公园，作为新兴综合社区Mission Rock的公共核心而规划建设。项目位于旧金山巨人队主场Oracle Park对岸，拥有开阔的景观视野、多样化的活动设施，并与周边社区形成紧密联系，展现出城市更新的积极愿景。清晨，公园为游客提供观察潮间带生态与鸟类的宁静环境；而在比赛日，这里则转变为充满活力的公共广场，成为球场的延伸空间，人们在此相聚、观赛、交流。

Mission Rock的开发以明确的价值理念为导向：构建包容性的社区、提升城市韧性，并打造具有城市标识意义的公共目的地。作为社区核心，中国盆地公园正是这一愿景的集中体现。

公园各个空间单元呼应区域自然环境特征，形成层次分明、相互关联的场所体系，共同构成具有识别度的城市公共空间。西侧入口处为聚会林地，种植本土杨梅树，并设置悬挂式灯光系统，为文化活动、健身课程、音乐演出、艺术市集等提供了理想场地。同时，林带还在公园西侧发挥着防风作用。

穿过林地后，中央广场汇聚了来自球场、Mission Rock社区及周边区域的人流与活力。广场地形中整合了无性别卫生间设施。北侧的滨岸沙地将人们引向更亲近水岸的空间，设计灵感源于当地海滩肌理，并利用回收桉木原木作为可互动的座椅。继续往东，观赛阶席为群体停留与观赛提供了场所，可远眺麦考维湾对岸的Oracle Park，其层级形式呼应球场看台的台地结构。

大草坪在空间上组织了水面、球场、城市天际线与海湾大桥的景观视线，为休闲活动、公共集会、文化活动、野餐与静思提供灵活场地。起伏的地形营造出绿地延伸入水的视觉效果，周边种植蒙特雷柏树，呼应湾区岬角地貌特征。

占地约1.1万平方英尺的雨水花园承担了整个片区的雨水收集、净化与调蓄功能，通过一系列架空栈道将绿色基础设施融入公共体验。耐湿本土植物的应用进一步提升了公园的生物多样性。

公园通过旧金山湾步道与更广泛的区域相连，该步道将东南滨水区接入总长约350英里的步道网络，并连接旧金山市中心及市场南区。建成后，湾步道将形成环绕旧金山湾的连续步行与骑行系统。

除区域连接功能外，湾步道同时也是应对海平面上升的第一道防线。步道整体高出原地面约5英尺，作为中国盆地公园与Mission Rock抵御沿海洪水的主要防护界面：其标示出公园地形抬升至未来海平面以上的边界，同时在滨岸沙地区域向水体方向逐渐降低。该多重效益设计在降低海平面上升与风暴风险的同时，加强了人与水环境的联系，并营造出沉浸式的湾区与麦考维湾景观体验。

PROJECT NARRATIVE

Foregrounding the living systems of the San Francisco Bay, China Basin Park is a 5-acre waterfront park designed and built as the heart of Mission Rock, a new mixed-use neighborhood across from Oracle Park, home of the San Francisco Giants. With dramatic views, diverse amenities, and strong connections to the wider community, China Basin Park is a symbol of optimism for the city. The park welcomes visitors on quiet mornings to experience intertidal ecology and birdwatching and transforms into a vibrant plaza on lively game days when it becomes an extension of the San Francisco Giants ballpark and a place to meet friends and watch the game.

Mission Rock was developed with strong values in mind: to foster an inclusive community, build resiliently, and create an iconic destination for San Francisco. As the anchor of the neighborhood, China Basin Park embodies this mission.

Each piece of the park magnifies the region’s environs, forming distinct realms within the park that come together as an iconic urban public space. At its western entrance, the park opens up to the Gathering Grove, shaded by native Arbutus trees and lit by catenary lights. The Gathering Grove is an ideal area for cultural events, fitness classes, music, art fairs, and other programs. Its trees also mitigate wind impacts along the western half of the park.

Just past the Grove, the Central Plaza captures the energy of the ballpark, Mission Rock neighborhood, and surrounding communities. It features an all-gender restroom integrated into the topography. To the north, the Shoreline Sands bring visitors closer to the waterfront. Inspired by textures of local beaches, the area features reclaimed eucalyptus logs as interactive seating. Further east, the Stadium Seats encourage groups to gather and watch the action at Oracle Park across McCovey Cove. The seats mirror the terraced form of the seating at the ballpark.

Framing views of the water, ballpark, skyline, and Bay Bridge, the Great Lawn offers flexible space for play, gathering, cultural events, picnicking, and reflection. Sculpted to create the illusion of undulating green space spilling into the water, the lawn is surrounded by Monterey cypress trees, reminiscent of the region’s headland landscapes.

The 11,000-square-foot Stormwater Garden treats, stores, and conveys runoff from the entire development, incorporating green infrastructure through a series of elevated boardwalks crossing the garden. Water-tolerant native species enhance the park’s biodiversity.

The park connects Mission Rock with the region through the San Francisco Bay Trail, connecting the southeastern waterfront to a 350-mile trail network, downtown San Francisco, and South of Market. Once complete, the Bay Trail will provide a continuous pedestrian and cycling corridor around the San Francisco Bay.

In addition to linking the park to the broader region, the Bay Trail also serves as the front line against sea level rise. Elevated approximately five feet above existing grade, the trail functions as a primary line of protection for China Basin Park and Mission Rock from coastal flooding: it marks where the park’s elevation lifts up above future sea level rise and conversely pushes down toward the water through the Shoreline Sands. This multi-benefit design reduces risk from sea level rise and storm events, while simultaneously enhancing connections to the water and creating immersive experiences of the San Francisco Bay and McCovey Cove.
