During the shelter in place, Dolores Park has experienced large crowds, so large, Mayor London Breed considered shutting it down. In order to enforce social distancing, circles have been drawn on the grass of Dolores Park.

The circles are drawn six feet apart and are meant to remind everyone to keep their distance. They will also help control large crowds as the circles limit the amount of free space in the park. All in time for the Memorial Day weekend.

It has been reported that San Francisco Recreation and Parks plans to do the same with the Little Marina Green Picnic Area.
