Following the lead of places like Brooklyn's Domino Park, San Francisco parks employees drew giant social-distancing circles on the grass in the flatlands of Dolores Park on Wednesday.
Mission District resident Ben Greenberg got a good shot of the renovation project.
The move is no doubt intended to keep sunbathers from fighting over real estate in the coming week, which promises warm and sunny weather.
The circles will also help police officers and other coronavirus health and safety monitors enforce social-distancing rules, which are still very much in effect, despite limited reopening.
And Dolores Park isn't alone, as the Marina Green — just a hop from the Golden Gate Bridge — will also be seeing circles tomorrow, San Francisco Recreation and Parks confirmed. Officials say that additional circles have been placed in Washington Square Park in North Beach as well.
Knowing San Francisco, residents will probably find interesting ways to share the new spaces.
