In November 2015, a 14-month project began to renovate Paul Goode Field, located within the
Tennessee Hollow Watershed. Work includes upgrades to the play area, construction of a small practice field, and the addition of a new restroom, parking lot, and picnic area. The surface of both fields will be comprised of a synthetic turf using an organic infill system that will reduce annual water usage by an estimated one million gallons. Connections to nearby trails will be enhanced.
Construction Impacts
Work hours will be Monday to Friday, 8 am to 5 pm. The Sanches playground will be closed during tree removals and the Paul Goode Field parking lot will be closed for the duration of the project. Portions of the
Mountain Lake Trail and
Tennessee Hollow Trail will be closed and signed with alternative routes. Should you have any questions or concerns about the project, please email the Presidio Trust at presidio@presidiotrust.gov .
Availability of Paul Goode Field
The athletic complex will be operated by University High School and will be available to a broad cross section of schools and youth-based community and non-profit sports organizations. For information about use of the field when it opens in 2017, email
