Stop with this "submission" stuff. The area between Division and Potrero and Folsom and 20th is NEMIZ. Been that for a long time. NEMIZ = North East Mission Industrial Zone. Even the city planners refer to the neighborhood that way.

Yeah I think the Lower Haight should have its own designation. Upper Market my butt.

Hmm, I like the use of Upper Market, but it probably should be sacrificed for Lower Haight. Yes, Flipper's is still in Hayes Valley.

You can't show Ocean View and Ingleside [Terrace]and not have Merced Heights! That's just plain silly. And what happened to Mission Terrace? For shame. Roxy Deli is def not in Sunnyside.

I'm sure no one but me cares, but Miraloma Park got eaten by Sunnyside, which is giant on that map! Just because no one's heard of MP even though it has (mostly) defined physical boundries, doesn't mean it's not there.

Everything gets eaten by (or in) Hayes Valley - even it's own charming character. Is Flippers even still there? Nothing like catching attitude from a pierced dyke who thinks your somehow cute... Of course, these are the pre-Walgreen days when you could still by a nice mojo bag at the magic shop. Oh yeah, somebody said I've got to say something negative about Gavin in every post so um, he won't eat the foie gras at Jardieniere - sissypants!

The updated posters most certaintly have the Tenderloin, along with Union Square. I have no idea what a NOPA is. I know there's a restaurant by that name and I think I've heard some realtors use that word before. Is it connected to a SOMA? Or a FIDI?

Well, NOW it's there. But yeah, it originally read Downtown. There was no TL. And I had clicked through, too. Now I gotta think about buying one. Thanks, perleorneg!!!

if you lazy readers clicked through to http://orkposters.com/sanfran.html maybe you'd still want to buy one.

the tenderloin is there and the location is accurate. the only questionable omission is the panhandle, as NoPA is a bullshit realtor invention and submission is a bullshit sfist invention*. *sorry guys, submission is cute, but ... it's too cute. ergo bullshit.

It looks to me like the fairly small "Downtown" section encompasses Union Square, the Tenderloin and Civic Center.

no way xyz123.... they've just lumped it in with Down Town, which is totally not the same as the Tenderloin.

Wait...the Tenderloin is there!

I was going to buy one, but I don't think I can now that someone pointed out that Tenderloin is missing. At least all the new silly names aren't here, TenderNob, Deco Ghetto, etc...

I want to like this poster, but it sucks too much. They put the "addi" of "addition" of "western addition" where the Panhandle should be. They also left out the T.L. which I think is a pretty intrinsic part of SF. Stupid typographers.

I'd consider getting one, but when the 'Loin doesn't get any love, then the hell with it.
