LeatherWalk is an exciting opportunity for visibility, and fun as community members help raise $22,000 to support the District’s Leather Legacy Landmarks sidewalk plaques initiative, honoring iconic SOMA locations that started serving the community in the 1960s. We plan to install plaques at 77 historic locations. Key plaques will be featured on the District’s guided walking tours, new dates coming soon.
