Major Events
Check out the winners from our 2020 design contest, where dozens of Sunnyside neighbors submitted amazing potential designs for the future of the steps.
In 2022, we held a Trivia Night via Sporcle! Friends & Neighbors came together to raise money for the steps and see who knew their stuff.
The Detroit Steps Project is fiscally sponsored by the San Francisco Parks Alliance
Sunnyside is a hidden gem in San Francisco, and the Detroit Steps run right down the middle of the neighborhood. We believe we can bring our neighborhood together to make something awesome for San Francisco’s next generation.
We need your help! 🥰
All donations go toward our goal of buying native California plants for the Upper Steps.
