The Excelsior Youth Center is a 22,000
square foot community center for the
Excelsior District of San Francisco.
The City of San Francisco and
the San Francisco Unified School District
collaborated in the realization of this facility
which includes a gymnasium, activity rooms,
multi-purpose room, recording studio,
computer lab and study hall.
