The Stack at Power Station
In 2027, ICA SF will come home to Dogpatch to launch a landmark public art initiative at The Stack at Prequel Park, within the Power Station. The project transforms the 300-foot smokestack — the skyline marker of San Francisco’s southern waterfront — into a vertical gallery for purpose-built works of art. It will anchor a new waterfront park that turns this 2.75-acre stretch of shoreline into a living intersection of art, architecture, and landscape.
Designed by Heatherwick Studio and delivered by Fifth Space, Prequel Park builds on years of community collaboration and imagination — reopening the site as a platform for the city’s next generation of creativity, innovation, and civic life.

“We’ve long looked for ways to collaborate with ICA SF, one of the most innovative, relentlessly creative, and gutsy organizations in the city. They’re phenomenalists through and through. Their new nomadic model is a perfect fit for turning over the Stack and presenting it as a place for art—only ICA SF could take a 300-foot chimney and transform it into a beacon of civic energy and wonder. We simply can’t wait to re-open Dogpatch’s waterfront with ICA SF in 2027. ICA SF is what San Francisco needs right now: a wellspring of shared imagination fueling the city’s reinvention.”
