Home > Future > Patri Fellowship > 2012 Website

This website is the outcome of a 12-week project created by the 2012 Patri Fellow, Alexa Bush. The goals of the project were to create a permanent home and presence for the work of the Patri Fellowship and to increase the awareness about the SouthEast Waterfront.

Far from a comprehensive overview, this site hopes to give a taste of the rich history and ecclectic stories and activities along the SEW to be built upon by future fellows in the program. The research presented here draws heavily from past Fellowship work, interviews conducted with various stakeholders during the summer of 2012, and the community history resources of organizations such as San Francisco City Guides and Shaping San Francisco.

The web design and development was done by Alexa Bush and will be hosted by SPUR. All photographs, audio, maps and graphics that are uncredited were created during the summer fellowship.
