#MeetTheTeam Meet Mary, our newest Geologist! Her passion for geology runs deep, from childhood fossil collections to studying paleomagnetism at UNH. She’s dedicated to geotechnical work that impacts lives. When she's not working, Mary enjoys hiking, spending time at the beach, and playing the violin.

We're proud to have played a key role in the redevelopment of India Basin, conducting a #geotechnical study that laid the foundation for 2.4 acres of new park space and 7.9 acres of Shoreline Park. The transformed area now features gathering docks, accessible walkways, a public plaza, lighted paths, and ecological education areas—an accomplishment we’re honored to be a part of. Join us this Saturday, Oct 19, from 11 am-4 pm for the grand opening of India Basin Waterfront Park! Enjoy free activities, food, live entertainment, and Fall Fest at nearby Shoreline Park, featuring a local market, pumpkin patch, and more. We look forward to seeing you there!

Before the summer, construction broke ground on the Japantown Peace Plaza, a major cultural landmark in San Francisco. The scope of work includes demolition of the existing plaza down the structural roof slab, seismic retrofit of structural concrete, installation of new below-grade drainage, and waterproofing. The plaza will be completed with new pavers, landscape planters and irrigation, decorative walls, curbs and railings, lighting, and electrical systems. Mayor London Breed and Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi were in attendance at the official groundbreaking ceremony. "The Japantown Peace Plaza project is more than a renovation; this is about investing in our community today and for future generations. This space is a cherished landmark for our Japanese American community, residents across the City, and visitors from around the world,” said Mayor London Breed. https://lnkd.in/g-KsQeTD #AGS #JapantownPeacePlaza #SFRecreationandParks

The San Francisco Public Utilities Commission Power Enterprise constructed a high-voltage transmission and distribution system in the Southeast portion of the City. It is intended to serve existing and future customers with large power needs. AGS provided geotechnical, civil, structural, and environmental engineering services for Phase 3 of this multi-phase $35 Million Design-Build project. This phase entailed the design of a high voltage 230/12.47 kV electrical gas-insulated substation with a maximum redundant capacity of 62.5 million volt-amperes at 398 Quint Street, and pulling several high voltage and medium voltage cables in approximately 9,000 feet of duct bank, starting at Mission Rock Street and Terry Francois Boulevard and continuing to the new substation. #AGS #SFPUC #Engineering #Geotechnical #Civil #Structural #Environmental
