The park features a central plaza, a variety of planted botanical gardens, an amphitheater for performances and a children's playground. The park is a regional destination for visitors to San Francisco and an amenity for the nearby local residents. Located 75 feet above San Francisco's streets is the 5-acre Salesforce Rooftop Park.
