Building for the Next 50 Years

The 50^th anniversary begins the restoration and reimagining of the campus, including completion of the rehabilitation of the General’s Residence and the formal announcement of Fort Mason Station, a new $3 million, privately-funded public plaza. The 12,000-square-foot plaza will transform a once-restricted military checkpoint and an abandoned railbed, fenced off for half a century, into a new front door for the campus. Internationally recognized sound artist Bill Fontana and choreographer Joanna Haigood will create its inaugural artworks. Together, the exhibition, the art commissions, and the 2027 groundbreaking of Fort Mason Station bring the campus’s past, present, and future into a single celebration.
