>> (clapping) great that's correct. as i was saying i'm the chair of the yerba buena community and the neighborhood that's home to the highest concentration of that's right we don't think there's a better place. we're here it stretches to harrison and fifth street on the west and we that it's really a

place that welcomes people to the city the culture institutions and we see the living zone as a welcome mat. the neighborhood is known for its insdunt and this is a fun way to combine the science and arts. the yerba buena benefit district is dedicated to improving the life of folks. ? how the district is working with the city in partnership on the yerba buena street life plan. it's a plan and violation road map for large projects. this is one of the larger projects. we've done artful bike racks their cool and creative. we're going to have a bike core wall relay.

it's about people and creating a zone where it's a circumstances. it's a circumstances because the things are get people out of their shells. we joked this is kind of a a lot to do it get people to hold hands but here on market street it seemed like somehow we've boxed ourselves in this is a place for people to be themselves. and when you talk about innovation it's about a mindset and a way of seeing of world. i think about this as a tradition of innovation. those dishes were developed 30 or 35 years ago and they were a brilliant idea and all this light we've been repreponderance

of the evidence in a unique way of evenly lightning market street. the tinkering beverage was an experiment 3 started with in the lab but if i could touch one and touch each other i'll have more fun. and so we want to bring the spirit of that kind of cremation into the world. i think of neil and i were talking about this he's been a big proponent of this project that is in the greater market street project this innovation is important. we were thinking about a time when libraries had closed. if you wanted something from the library maybe you got a book may not not but now you can walk into a library and pick up a

book. the goal for this is to make this the new normal how you interact with each other maybe is that a before were locked up. i want to thank my team we work in a studio model we have four or five people to the engineers to the designers to josh back there he's spent missouri most of his design work say volunteer. we have those amazing volunteers that help us turn the corner on projects. i want to thank dennis for an green lighting this. this is an estimation of what we've done an innovation and it

requires champions. they trust their people so i want to thank dennis specifically. and on this note i'll introduce the director of the x platform >> wow. look at all the energy in people here in a zone that's already - i'm so exfoliated to be here. when we moved the "x" tomorrow down to pier 15 it was never meant to stop it here. the opportunity of moving into the urban environmentalists into the neighborhood was part of our community illness when we got started ease move forward into pier 15 pr i want to thank shawn to be the head he thought spear to start building those x

tomorrow ideas. it's been our belief also the "x" tomorrow isn't just a place but a way to see the world and to be part of it. it brings, you know, part of those experiences ease grab someone on the side of the street and enjoy it. that's not the first time we've done this. the project represents one of the x particulars of a new kind of relationship in working with our hometown with the mayor's office and the living innovations idea with the make our own market street idea. this is a vibrant vision that is recreating the capital here and it makes it exciting. i have a number of people to thank. just to say the x tomorrow is

proud to be a part of the city. it's an experiment we want to see how it resonates were but this wouldn't have been possible without the mayor's office or the city planning department a go up we've gotten to know the architecture the urban benefit district the transportation ultimately alternatives but the greatest thanks goes to a man i've gotten to know and have the deepest respect for its our mayor edwin lee who's can do spirit and this new ways of evenly lightning the city that

we couldn't be more proud to be a part of it and our champion is mayor ed lee (clapping.) well dennis thank you for that wonderful introduction and to you and the "x" tomorrow and a shawn thank you for your leadership here and for sponsoring this wonderful effort to demonstrate the connection between innovation and one of our most precious streets in san francisco. you know, i was with supervisor kim a couple of weeks ago in soul korea we were celebrating how wonderful american people innovative capital of san francisco. he was looking at our city and wondering how could we be

engaged in the activities and what ideas we could come out with. this innovation was another great attempt that will be successful. where else could you sit here and engage in chips dishes i did that with people in between you could hear people whisper or educate a song and connect and create a song yourself or for probably the next week have your image carved into a pumpkin. but this is what we wanted to do in the living innovation zone. i want to thank planning and public works with other agencies to connect up with the yerba

buena community district to bring out the spirit. and think about those experiments being the first of many to bring out the innovative spirits in all corridors. market street is a wonderful beginning because we want to signal how important this street is to our city. this is an international street. i know when john have the conventions all people will come down and experiment with all our local people. but if you can imagine when we started this with an accelerator with green start we signaled a year ago we wanted to bring this innovative spirit out to pause and suggest that maybe clean tech companies or solar companies or university or a

sister city can actually demonstrate this on third street or maybe a corridor on howard street or carr developing value and bring this innovative spirit right to the local spreadsheet. you can have ideas whether it's a university or another klein company to bring it and excite people and have all kinds of good spirits. this is why we have an innovation spirit. this should be a great openness to this idea. i want to thank all the entities for bringing this spirit out for reflecting what we can do what we don't create boundary but invite more people into this.

we did this a months ago when i had some san francisco students help me to create something on added 3/printer. they were saying this was a time when it's kind of like all a draft or report for them we're able to make some mistakes but create some things along the way so this spirit can thrive in our city. this is an experiment as dennis and a shawn said and we're allowed to make mistakes but allowed to created things at the same time. it's kind of like government in the private sector this is a pro to type. so that creativity can be reflected in everything we do. we're allowed to do that when we

come together in the public and private sector we should suggest to your science partners and all that this creativity can be reflected in so many parts of our city bringing out people to open their minds to other ideas. this is i think the gift that san francisco has with all our partners. i want to thank you for all the participates in producing this diversity so we can produce other equivalence for the rest of the corridors and the rest of the neighborhoods thank you and congratulations
