City of San Luis Obispo - Visiting San Luis Obispo - Mission Plaza   (Site not responding.

Mission Creek Bikeway and Greenbelt Concept Plan: Chapter 1 Living conditions at the Mission were deteriorating on their own when the Mexican revolution of 1810 ended the stipends to the Spanish Fathers and a generous system of land grants was established to assist new Mexican settlers. Shortly thereafter Mission Bay was filled in with sand and debris, as was the fate of most of San Francisco's waterfront property, and the Creek was buried in culverts and forgotten. The lack of non-motorized connections is distressing given the natural and artificial boundaries separating Mission Bay from SOMA and the Mission District, and the few crossings of the railroad tracks that provide access to this new neighborhood. www.missioncreek.org /plan/chapter_1.htm   (2190 words)

Mission Bay Before Mission Bay was launched in 2001, the area immediately northeast of the ball park (known informally as ‘South Beach’) already had been converted from former warehouses and storage yards into a reasonably dense residential village with more than 2200 rental and for-sale units.
