Forget escalators… Get ready for a 20-passenger gondola to whisk you to Salesforce Park

One of the most fun ways to get to the Salesforce Rooftop Park isn’t via a boring old escalator or elevator, but by a brand new downtown gondola system with a 20-passenger glass cabin which will connect the Mission Square (the new plaza of the Salesforce Tower at Mission and Fremont) to the rooftop park. Learn more about the Gondola project.

Curbed SF and The Chronicle both report that the gondola is scheduled to be open July 1 starting at 8am.  

  • Gondola Opening Date – July 1, 2019 at 8am
  • Where do i catch the gondola? Mission and Fremont, known as Mission Square
  • How much does the gondola cost? It’s free!
  • How Many People Can Ride the Gondola? It’s reported that up to 20 people can ride the gondola.

Please note that the gondola operators have not publicly announced that the gondola will be open on July 1st (but have confirmed it with Curbed and The Chronicle) so you should consider this to be a “soft” opening and there may be long lines, or delays, or they could decide not to open it yet at all.
