Under the current development plan for Treasure Island and Yerba Buena Island, Treasure Island Community Development (TICD) expects to contribute community benefits and amenities over a period of several years. If Treasure Island is developed as currently planned, and subject to approval and acceptance by applicable governmental agencies, community benefits and amenities may include but are not limited to:

• An extensive collection of new public parks and open space
• One of the highest-scoring LEED-ND projects worldwide, Treasure Island is planned to be a better, more sustainable, well-connected community
• Miles of proposed public hiking and bicycle paths

Beyond the new residential development on Treasure Island, the following are proposed, subject to approval and acceptance by applicable governmental agencies:

• A public safety center to include new Treasure Island Fire and Police Stations
• A new public school site, subject to acceptance by the school district
• New public art
• A new marina
• Protected swim lanes at Clipper Cove Beach
• An urban farm
• Reconstructed athletic fields

Under the current development plan, the following are proposed to be constructed, subject to final acceptance and approval by local governmental agencies:

• All-new utility infrastructure, including public power provided by the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission
• New roads and bicycle network with protected bike lanes serving Treasure Island
• New waste treatment and water systems
• A new Treasure Island ferry terminal and transit hub
• Geotechnical improvements to increase seismic stability and load-bearing capacity of soil beneath the new streets and development parcels
• State-of-the-art, comprehensive sea level rise protections proposed to be constructed over the coming years

The residences planned for Treasure Island are anticipated to include both rental and homeownership opportunities consisting of apartments and condominiums in mid-rise and high-rise buildings. The first stage of development on Treasure Island anticipates up to 1,000 homes with an estimated 2,250 residents in apartments and condominiums. As currently planned, Treasure Island may be home to as many as 18,000 people. These diverse new offerings are for individuals of all ages, families, people with disabilities and veterans at all income levels. Under current development plans, affordable housing for various household income levels may eventually account for up to 27% of the planned total number of homes.

The first stage of development on Treasure Island is planned to include condominiums and multifamily residences, both market-rate and affordable. Leasing and sales efforts for the completed buildings are currently underway.  

Treasure Island is a unique destination with an exciting future including new residential development. Today, enjoy incredible 360-degree views of the Bay and access to maritime activities. Also on the island are award-winning cafes and bars like Aracely Cafe, Mersea, and Gold Bar. Explore the Treasure Island Museum, monumental public art installations, and on-island programmed events proposed over the coming months and years, making Treasure Island an incomparable place to live and visit.

Current development plans for Treasure Island anticipate what may eventually be the largest expansion of public open space in San Francisco since the creation of Golden Gate Park. Treasure Island Landing and Clipper Cove Beach, Infinity Point, Signal Point, and The Rocks Dog Park on Yerba Buena Island are now open.
