Walton Square:</strong> Start at this urban oasis, about a block west of the Embarcadero between Jackson, Pacific, Front and Davis, which is named after Sydney Grant Walton, a native San Franciscan banker and bigwig. Designed by architect Peter Walker, the park was created as part of an agreement between the city and the adjacent Golden Gateway Center, which was required to set aside more than $1 million for public art. At lunchtime, the park is filled with downtowners eating, chatting, enjoying the sculpture and snoozing. If you neglected to pack a lunch, cross over to Jackson Street, where you can pick up sandwiches and salads from one of the many takeout spots.</p> <p>Strolling around the 2-acre park, you will find bronze works such as Jim Dine's playful "Big Heart on the Rock" as well as the solemn "Portrait of Georgia O'Keeffe" by Marisol. Not to be missed are the late San Francisco artist Joan Brown's "Pine Tree Obelisk" and George Rickey's hypnotic kinetic sculpture "Two Open Rectangles." </p> <p>The restful "Fountain of Four Seasons" by French sculptor Francois Stahly features water cascading over four bronze pillars onto a bed of rocks. Just outside the southeast corner of the park, look across Jackson (in the center of Davis Street) to see Benny Bufano's "The Penguins." Also note the Colombo Market arch on Front between Jackson and Pacific. This is the only structure remaining from San Francisco's enormous old produce district. Its spirit lives on in smaller farmers' markets around the city today.</p> <p><strong>Golden Gateway Center:</strong> For more sculpture, climb the elegant "grand staircase" on the north side of the square into the Golden Gateway Center. Here you will find yourself in a nautical-themed "city in the air" with seafaring names such as Ironship and Whaleship plazas. The 1960s-era Golden Gate Commons has high-rises and townhouses set among open space and benches to allow visitors to sit down to enjoy the sculptures.</p> <p>At the top of the stairs, walk straight ahead, turning right at Hinckley Walk to view the Jacques Overhoff pond and sculpture honoring the 1945 signing of the U.N. Charter. Then walk south (One Maritime Plaza will be on the left) to view the piece de resistance: Henry Moore's "Standing Figure Knife Edged." Straight ahead is Charles Perry's "Icosaspirale," which looks like a giant dreidel. Walk around to the front of One Maritime Plaza to see the "peacock" fountain and Marino Marini's "Bronze Horse" as well as Jan Peter Stern's "Limits of Horizon II." </p> <p>Descend the steps behind the Gunlocke showroom (4 Maritime Plaza) and watch out for skateboarders. Continue down to Clay Street, past a large monument honoring diplomatic relations between the United States and Korea.</p> <p><strong>Justin Herman Plaza: </strong>On Clay, walk toward the Embarcadero, passing behind the Vaillancourt Fountain. When you get to the Embarcadero, check out Robert Arneson's "Yin and Yang." These two heads are part of Arneson's "Egghead" series, which depicts intellectuals in various humorous postures. Arneson is the controversial sculptor commissioned to create a memorial to San Francisco Mayor George Moscone, who was assassinated, along with Supervisor Harvey Milk, in 1978 at City Hall. The bust's pedestal, with its bloody bullet holes and graffiti scrawls of "BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG" so enraged the citizenry that the statue was banished to a private collection.</p> <p>Finish the tour by walking through the water falling from the concrete Vaillancourt Fountain in Justin Herman Plaza. People made fun of the gigantic fountain when it was installed in 1971, saying it looked as if the freeway had tumbled down. After the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake, the Embarcadero Freeway was torn down, drenching the plaza in sunlight. Some San Franciscans say the fountain now commemorates that event. </p> <p><strong>Getting there:</strong> To get to Sydney G. Walton Square from downtown San Francisco on Market Street, walk north on Battery to Jackson, then turn right toward the Embarcadero to Front Street.</p> <p> </p> <p>Urban Outings are presented by Greenbelt Alliance, the Bay Area's advocate for open spaces and vibrant places, celebrating its 50th anniversary this year.
