We are reimagining the SFMTA’s Potrero Yard as the nation’s first known joint development of a bus maintenance facility with integrated housing and retail. Please join us at a Community Open House today, Wednesday, September 20, 2023, to learn more about the Potrero Yard Modernization Project including updated designs, economic development opportunities and the public art plan.

Located at Bryant and Mariposa Streets, Potrero Yard is an over 100-year-old bus yard, which is long past its lifespan and does not meet current seismic safety standards. The new state-of-the-art bus facility will not only improve maintenance and storage capabilities but support a greener, more sustainable and reliable transportation system for our community.

Image describes benefits of a new Potrero Yard: Efficiency: Repair buses faster, improving Muni’s reliability; Sustainability: Provide the green infrastructure needed for an all-electric fleet; Future Growth: Accommodate fleet as it grows – room for 54% more buses at the yard; Work Conditions: Improve environments, amenities, and safety conditions for 800+ staff.

The Potrero Yard Modernization Project also gives San Francisco a unique opportunity to address a critical housing need. The project proposes up to 513 units of affordable and workforce housing, subject to funding sources and market feasibility. Plus, it includes retail opportunities at three key intersections with space for street vendors along 17th Street. Our design is rooted in being a good neighbor by minimizing shadowing on Franklin Square Park, providing a public restroom, offering views into the yard of Muni operations and including a strategy to achieve a LEED Gold rating.

The SFMTA selected the Potrero Neighborhood Collective (PNC) as the Development Team to refine the Project during the pre-development phase, and PNC is expected to design, build, finance, and maintain Potrero Yard as part of a Public Private Partnership (P3) with the City.

5 Jobs that AI can replace in the next ten years

5 Jobs that AI can replace in the next ten years 1. Customer relationship advisor The emerging chatbots have redefined the experience of customer care. The probability of all telemarketing jobs getting replaced by AI is the highest. One of the major reasons behind this is efficiency. AI-enabled chatbots are considered more efficient than human resource-driven customer care services. 2. Programming language trainer All the IT firms employ a training consultant for various functions. The job of a programming language trainer is already on its way out. Employees prefer e-learning services over the human trainer. AI-driven interactive training solutions are likely to replace the job of programming language trainers. 3.
