OUR GOAL
Our goal is to strengthen small businesses, by providing them with needed services, engaging commercial property owners, and elevating the neighborhoods profile, all working towards maintaining vibrant and healthy commercial districts. But we can't do it alone. We draw on the local community's strength through corridor activation projects such as murals, sculptures and events. EAG has chosen to pursue this by involving residents, merchants, neighborhood and merchants associations, and city agencies initiating activities aimed to reinvigorate, green, beautify, strengthen, and unify our diverse community. |
Our Vision for the Excelsior and Outer MissionThe Excelsior Outer Mission Street shopping district will be an inviting, inclusive urban village. Eclectic shops, specialty stores, services and restaurants along the attractive, tree-lined sidewalks of our Mission Street corridor will be well-served by public transportation and will provide for the daily needs of residents as well as attract visitors from around the city.
Arts and cultural institutions will offer evening entertainment in our safe, friendly neighborhood. Diverse individuals, families, and merchants will proudly participate in building and sustaining a true sense of cooperation, care and community in the Excelsior and Outer Mission. People who live here and those who visit will meet and mix to enjoy the area's spirit and unique character. |
