A high-rise building rose up through the center of the park. Even though the park was on the third floor, it appeared from that standpoint to be at ground level.

Each corner of the park had an identical seating area. A circular bench surrounding a tree and low lighting balls.

This elevated park can be accessed using stairs from the park behind Justin Herman Plaza. You'll need to explore because the presence of an elevated park is not obvious from below.

A paved path bordered the east and west ends of the park. Notice the circular seating around a tree at the far end. Also notice the anti-skateboard tabs on the right.

At the northeast corner, a different angle view of the circular seating around a tree. Notice that this corner is shaded by surrounding high-rise buildings.

A level bridge connected the park to apartments on the other side of Washington Street. Note that if you walked through the apartment complex you would arrive at Sidney Walton Park on the far side.

The fountain is dry on weekends and during droughts. It forms part of the east plaza in front of the central high-rise.

The low Allsteel building faced the Maritime Plaza building and its fountain across the east plaza.

This sculpture was part of the Golden Gateway Center Collection of Fine Art.

Another sculpture was across the plaza beyond the fountain.

In its own alcove, the sculpture was surrounded by steps. A relaxed area for a lunch break.

Stairs led down to Washington Street between the Maritime Plaza Building (left) and the Marino Marini sculpture (right).

Access to the other plaza on the north side was underneath the Maritime Plaza Building. Dramatic, but not particularly pleasant.

The northern area underneath the Maritime Plaza Building was perhaps only useful for protection from rain.

The northern plaza had a nice expanse of lawn in its center. Notice that the entry to the Punch Line Comedy Club was just across the lawn.

In an alcove just behind the Embarcadero Center Cinema, was another sculpture.

Directly across the plaza from the Icosaspirale was another sculpture in another alcove.

In the northwest corner was another seating area around a tree. This corner, unlike the others, was in sunlight.

Along the western edge were two blue metal benches and two stairways down to Battery Street.

The view of the park as seen from street level at the corner of Battery and Washington. Note how the greenery atop the parking does not look as if it is a park.
