Responding to Milk plaza articleI am the executive director of the Friends of Harvey Milk Plaza, the organization that has been working since 2016 to see the community's vision for honoring Milk at the intersection of Castro and Market streets is realized.
I want to respond to something that appeared in your recent article titled "SF arts panel backs latest Harvey Milk Plaza design" [September 23].
In the article you wrote: "... the plaza has been found to have historical significance worthy of preservation ..."Yes, the historic resource evaluation, or HRE, did find that the plaza is individually eligible for listing in the California Register, however, this is only due to its association with historic gatherings and events that occurred at.
