On Thursday, April 23rd, the Council President unveiled the eight new signs for Rose Creek, alongside leaders from the Friends of Rose Creek, San Diego Bird Alliance, and the Mission Bay High School Interact Club.

Throughout San Diego’s history, Rose Creek has played a vital role in cultural life as a gathering place for the Kumeyaay people and as a critical component to the health of surrounding wetlands and marshes. However, the Creek has not received the public recognition it has long deserved. The idea for these signs originated with the San Diego Bird Alliance and Friends of Rose Creek seeking opportunities to acknowledge and uplift Rose Creek. Now, pedestrians, cyclists, and drivers will know that it is not just a bridge but a crossing of Rose Creek and its natural habitat.
