Geocache Description:

A very easy, short multi. Wheelchair friendly. Kid friendly. Very short walk. May want to avoid the area after day-light hours though.

A unique opportunity was created when BART expanded down the Peninsula to create a linear park on the swath of unimproved land on top of the tube. Eventually planned to run from Colma to Millbrae, South San Francisco's portion will be three miles long, running through the center of town from the South San Francisco to the San Bruno BART Stations. The Class I bicycle and pedestrian trail is a 10" wide asphalt pathway with 2' decomposed granite shoulders, irrigated for low maintenance landscaping, with safety lighting, signalized intersections where the trail crosses Spruce and Chestnut Avenues, and in-ground flashing lights at Orange Avenue.

The new park is called Centennial Way to commemorate the City's 100th birthday in 2008. Estimated at a total cost upwards of $6 million, grant funding and developer fees have been secured to make phased construction possible. Centennial Way was one of three Statewide trail award winners from the Trails and Greenways Conference

To find this cache, start at the posted coords and look north. You should see some brightly colored vertical structures. Go there and admire them. It might be better to sit to enjoy the view.

In addition to the sculptures, you can see a creek (actually a paved waterway behind you that has mallards swimming around), trees, birds and rocks. Of particular interest should be a rock just to the right of where you are sitting.

Be aware of muggles - especially after the nearby high schools let out.
