The Transbay Temporary Terminal project will break ground on November 1st on the Rincon Hill neighborhood block bordered by Main, Howard, Beale, and Folsom Streets. The first phase is scheduled to be finished and begin operations by August 2009. The second phase, which includes tearing down the eastern overhead ramps, will complete by October 2009. The Temporary Terminal will operate until the new Transbay Transit Center is ready for operations, slated for some time in 2014. After that point in time, the land will be developed into mixed use housing by the San Francisco Redevelopment Agency with a 1-acre neighborhood park in the middle.

Phil Sandri and Ed Sum from the Transbay Joint Powers Authority (TJPA) presented an overview of both the Temporary Transbay Terminal and the planned Transbay Transit Center and took questions from attendees at a community meeting earlier this evening held at The Port of San Francisco offices at Pier 1. Neighbors will have another opportunity to talk with representatives from the TJPA at this Sunday's South Beach, Mission Bay, and Rincon Hill Neighborhood Block Party where the Authority will be an exhibitor.
