Wheee! My nephew takes on the grass....
Rebekah T.

Spending time in public parks should never be taken for granted. How often are we too busy to take time to get outdoors and appreciate the community parks all over our city and others. As I spend more and more time in Brisbane, I frequent the park often for mini lunchtime getaways. Whether you are here to eat your lunch in the sun, spend quality time on the swings or slides with little people or enjoy one of the events going on in the park, you can really sit back and enjoy yourself here. Brisbane takes care of it's city and you can see that in the cute little streets, parks and such. Brisbane Park System also includes a Skateboard Park, Dog Park and many trails through the San Bruno Mountains. So much to explore, just minutes away from the city.

Large grassy area.

I've lived in the Bay Area all my life, and never have been to Brisbane. I was looking for a shortcut to 101 from Daly City down Bayshore Blvd, and I decided to stop and take a look around. Entering downtown, the community park looked inviting, with lots of free parking around the park. It is a very peaceful place, and divided into three sections; a large grassy area, childrens play area with a restroom building, and an area of plants and picnic tables. There is a big gazebo structure in the center of it all. There were several parents with their kids in the playground area, and a few workers from the nearby business park having lunch on the picnic tables, but otherwise I had the park to myself. One interesting find was that the fire hydrants are painted humorously, like one of the Lucy character from that TV show. The view was great watching the fog being held back by the San Bruno mountains. This park is one of the best kept up parks I've ever seen, and it worth a drive here to enjoy it.

"WOW....!"-exclaimed 3 eight year olds. The rope "structure" and bridge that leads to the a slide…read morewas fun to climb through. My 1 yo got to play in the smaller structure -slide -bongos -monkey bars and baby swings. Oh! I need to also mention that we love parks with the recycled rubber when you are pretty much walking/running/jumping on clouds. There is also a basketball court and field with plenty of well kept grass. We wanted to check this park out since the remodel and it was a hit. Ok I'm done. :)

Parking: There are two lots. One by the baseball field…read morewhich is a shortish walk to the kids playground, and one right next to the playground which I didn't park at because I couldn't figure out how to get there. A wanderer explained I would need to get back on the freeway and go around etc. so I just shrugged and hauled myself on the paved path to the park. Playground: I'm such a fan because my son is 17 months and the playground was a great size for him. The slides are low to the ground so I feel comfortable with him going down on his own. I wish the swings were longer cause it's a lot back and forth quick swings but he doesn't complain and asks to jump back and forth between the two options. The area is very small, but not crowded so a sweet low key option for a parent who doesn't want to run around too much. There's a fun dome like spinning seat and a larger swing to sit with your kid in as well. There's not a ton at this park but what there was enough. Safety: I felt super safe here! I There were a handful of people with kids resting at some of the few picnic tables who kept to themselves. There were a few teenagers that strode in but they also kept to themselves. The flooring at this park is spongey and I had no worries about my son falling. There is a concrete "stage" with concrete seating around it that my son loved climbing on so I was close-by for that play area. Resting: Plenty of grass for picnics and 2-3 picnic tables that I noticed. Nothing was shaded though. Overall: I would definitely come back. My son was not ready to leave as he loved it here. I just need to figure out the correct parking lot!

Interesting sculpture: South San Francisco…read more This was my first time seeing this piece of architecture sitting in the heart of the bio industry area located in South San Francisco. Many of the surrounding buildings are owned by Genentech and off of the main street DNA Way. We parked on the parking lot of a baking culinary school and from there walked up on a paved street that is gated and cars can't access to see the sculpture. Once up there we were able to get a panoramic view of South San Francisco and the Bay. The structure is a 92-foot tall sculpture and can be seen from the Bay Bridge, East Bay and the San Francisco Airport. I had to wait for a plane to pass by and out of sight before I could hear the Wind Harp's chime. The Wind Harp sits above 243 feet above see level and it was windy up there during our visit but that is the unique feature of the Wind Harp. It is one of the world's aeolian harps. An aeolian harp is an instrument played by the movement of the wind, named for the Greek god of the wind, Aeolus. And, yes, you could hear the chime of the "harp" when you get close... it's very cool! I tried to take a video of the chiming sound it created but, unfortunately, it only captured the strong winds. There was a plaque presented by Genentech acknowledging the work of artists, Lucia and Aristides Demetrios. I'm finally able to cross off one my bookmarked places off my list. Worth stopping for.

Very cool, and very odd at the same time. Over the years while working nearby, I've come to…read moreappreciate the "wind harp" sculpture. A 92 foot structure of metal, it's actually very cool. When windy, this "thing" really howls with a tone like no other. If in a nearby building, you can actually hear it while inside at a meeting. At the same time, you get used to it. Recommendation: Pick a windy day to visit There's rumors about it (I suggest to try it): ================================= * If you throw a metal object, it will redirect and cling like a magnet to the sculpture * Try to throw a ball thru the sculpture, and it will bounce/reflect away and not penetrate. A Poem: ======== In South San Francisco's gentle breeze, A wind harp sculpture sways with ease, Its graceful form, a work of art, Sings a song from the depths of heart. A melody woven from the wind's embrace, Whispers secrets in an airy space, Strings of metal, resonating free, Echoing the city's symphony. Tall and slender, it reaches high, Against the clear, blue, open sky, Capturing the essence of the coast, In its harmonious, airy host. As the Pacific's breath does flow, Through this sculpted harp, music grows, A serenade for those who pass, A moment of peace, a breath, a class. So, in South San Francisco's grace, This wind harp sculpture finds its place, A reminder of nature's artful dance, In the city's embrace, a sweet romance.
