Wonderful grove. Very peaceful. The engraved names and the still landscape adds to the importance of this place. Community volunteering on 3rd Sat from March to October
Come join us for community workdays in the Grove. 8am to 1pm on third Saturday of the month, from March through November.
I recommend the path along the south edge of the grove, next to the fence for the nursery. It's quiet and beautiful.
Wonderful flowers. Good macro photography opportunity.
Dahilas are in full bloom in August. Come on a sunny day if you can, they are bursting with color!
Dahlias start blooming in late shine and well into the fall. Visit early to view in peace and quiet.
This area of GGP has a lovely assortment of roses to look at. Please do not pick.

One of the best POPOS in the Financial District. You will be 15 floors above so the view is quite nice. Good spot to bring lunch or just have a quiet place to talk or relax.
Awesome POPOS in FiDi. Certainly a hidden gem in this concrete jungle - if you can sneak away or spare an hour on a sunny day come here for lunch or an afternoon reprieve!
