At a bar in the suburbs, maybe. Not at San Francisco place that used to house Moose's.

@mariconsoy Or more density in an appropriate space. Serviced well by transportation. In an urban neighborhood. It's called developing smart, otherwise known as SmartGrowth. Building on areas that are already built on close to transit in the center city, not stealing more farmland to build miles from the center city. SF can be (and has been -- the density has dropped) a lot more dense. Cities around the world have figured this out. The Bay Area, for all it's green talk, still has suburban style development (auto dealerships, a giant grocery store surrounded by parking), and one story buildings right smack in the middle of its urban spine. Every time SF refuses its responsibility as the central city, it pushes more homes and people further out. The development paradigms of SF affect the entire region and the state.

RE Ford: the Upper Market planning zone included both the Ford showroom and repair shop for development. That may have changed. BTW it also includes all the Market ST gas stations except the Chevron at Castro, the Thai restaurant at Sanchez, Sullivan's funeral home... More ticky-tacky condos coming...

Any restaurant that tells a cell-phone yammering jackass to can it should stay in business in perpetuity. "Joey & Eddie's"? Ugh, what a dreadful name. Sounds like a sports bar peopled with fat guys in flip-flops, eating chicken wings, watching football on some big screen tv, and tossing peanut shells on the ground. That name has to GO.

Anyone remember when Moose's was known as the place where restaurant management would get pissed at you for using your cell phone? Um... payback!

Ah, the Washbag and now Moose's... the end of an era
