Transamerica Redwood Park

What you need to know

Transamerica Redwood Park is a half-acre grove of redwood trees and a small plaza at the base of the Transamerica Pyramid. The trees were transplanted from the Santa Cruz Mountains when the tower was built in the early 1970s.

What to Expect

Several dozen redwoods, brick walkways, benches, and a fountain. The park reopened to the public in 2024 after the Pyramid’s multi-year renovation, with new seating and a kiosk. It takes a few minutes to walk through and is a quiet spot for a weekday lunch downtown.

Visiting

Free. The grove sits on the Washington and Clay Street side of the Pyramid block. Hours are daytime; confirm current hours before a special trip.

Getting There

Montgomery Station (BART and Muni Metro) is a few blocks south on Market Street. The 1 California stops two blocks uphill, and the 12 Folsom-Pacific runs nearby on Pacific and Sansome.
