Jason Corning, photographer and resident of San Francisco’s Sunset District, is known across the world for his loving portraits of his subjects. In Portraits from the Parks, he turns his lens to the people enjoying JFK Promenade in Golden Gate Park and Great Highway Park along Ocean Beach.

It’s hard to imagine San Francisco without JFK Promenade and Great Highway Park. These unique park spaces offer people of all ages and abilities a place to walk and roll that’s wide enough to be with friends and family, flat enough to be accessible to all, and safe from the ever-present danger and pollution of automobiles. There’s no other space in the City like them. Before JFK Promenade, where did kids ride a bike or scoot? Where did seniors and others with mobility issues walk or roll free of automobile danger, which disproportionately endangers our City’s seniors.

Proposition I was written to take away these unique places, sending San Franciscans seeking recreation or safe transportation space back to the past when Golden Gate Park’s JFK Drive was part of the City’s “high injury corridor,” meaning one of the top streets contributing to the City’s 30 deaths and 500 critical injuries caused annually by traffic violence. Proposition I chooses car convenience for a few over the safety of all.

Proposition J protects JFK Promenade as a safe place for all San Franciscans to recreate away from the danger and pollution of automobiles. And thanks to access improvements like a free shuttle and more ADA parking than before, Golden Gate Park is now more accessible than ever before. Proposition J also protects San Franciscans’ ability to manage the future of Great Highway Park. Prop I requires using the Great Highway as a 24/7 roadway, leaving no room for even a weekend-only oceanfront park. Prop I is an extremist attempt to overrule the majority of San Franciscans with a misinformation campaign funded by Dede Wilsey, the City’s top fundraiser for Donald Trump.
