Welcome to the Bay to Park Paseo, a 1.7-mile walking experience along Park Boulevard through downtown from San Diego Bay to Balboa Park.
Designed by volunteer designers, artists, and storytellers, the Paseo is a unique, engaging, and impermanent pedestrian experience.
Created and presented by Pete Garcia and Beth Callender of the non-profit URBAN INTERVENTIONS and Chloé Lauer, Urban Planner, the Bay to Park Paseo is fiscally sponsored by the Downtown San Diego Public Spaces Foundation.

Linking the Bayfront with Balboa Park was first suggested by notable urban planner John Nolen to the City of San Diego in 1908 and has been an unfulfilled dream of many in the design community.
Park Boulevard offers a direct route (1.7 miles) and passes many of the city’s beloved places, including the award-winning Harbor Drive Pedestrian Bridge, Petco Park, the Central Library, and many educational institutions, such as UC San Diego Park & Market, NewSchool of Architecture & Design, San Diego City College, and several K-12 schools.
The Bay to Park Paseo has been designated as an Impact Project and endorsed by World Design Capital 2024.
