This site allows the
Center to continue using the natural and cultural resources of the national park, especially the outdoor areas of Crissy Field and
marsh, for its science and
environmental programs that serve youth, schools, and the greater community.
After 70 acres of asphalt and concrete had been crushed and reused, 87,000 tons of hazardous material removed, and 130,000 plugs of salt grass planted by hand, we had created a gorgeous 100 - acre swath of national parkland — including a restored grassy field, revitalized
marsh, new shoreline promenade, and an
environmental education facility, the Crissy Field
Center, to ensure our stewardship of the land endures in future generations.
