Petaluma National Little League
Regency has absorbed the cost of maintaining Carter Fields since 2004 so Petaluma National Little League would have an available facility, at no cost, until the new fields at Petaluma Junior High are built. Regency's financial support of the baseball fields has directly benefited youth athletics for more than 380 Petaluma families over the past five years. After East Washington Place's completion, the baseball fields will be incorporated into Petaluma Junior High School. This will bring the fields closer to the children and provide a quieter, more welcoming environment for youth baseball in the community.
"Regency Centers has been a wonderful landlord, continuing to provide Petaluma National Little League access to our baseball fields without expense, as we work together to relocate our baseball facility to Petaluma Junior High School." - Troy Sanderson, Director, Petaluma National Little League

Improvements to Bridgeside included a new bay trail alongside the estuary which is now used for public events like the Frank Bette Center's plein aire painting contest and local high school band presentations. Regency received the 2007 Long Wharf Award for providing significant improvements to the bay access. The city of Alameda and Regency Centers were honored for the Bridgeside shopping center redevelopment with the California Redevelopment Agency Award of Excellence.
