Headshot of Declan King
declan king, urban planner

I’m an urban planner drawn to the edges of cities: the buffers, curbs and leftover land where one group’s land meets another’s. I map them, count who uses them, and work with residents and city staff on what it would take to share them.

In San Francisco City Hall I’ve worked with the Mayor’s Office and District 5, connecting residents to City departments and policy processes. At UC Berkeley I pair that civic work with spatial analysis: parcel inventories in GIS, field counts and surveys, land use and density studies, and plans that show what change would look like on the ground. Every project here was made with teammates, and my part is listed with each one.
