The hill is a justa waiting to burn.
Hah, the dry cleaners was a dry cleaners! Only 4hr cleaners in the neighborhood, BTW AFAIK. Bad parking, though.
The NIMBYs have done a good job preserving "neighborhood character," though. Not that an SFist post redeems the probable misery of living around there, but maybe Hollywood Video can be torn and rebuilt in the style of '55.
That puny pedestrian median was finally installed after years of complaints about how unsafe this intersection is. The double-turn lane onto eastbound Cesar Chavez is still a hazard for anyone trying to cross on foot, and the gas station is a nightmare: driveways cutting up the sidewalk, no regulated directions for traffic, clueless drivers buzzing people who are just trying to walk to work, bus, school, etc. Neighbors continue to push the city to improve this whole corridor. Come to a meeting Tuesday, August 26, 6 pm, at the Leonard Flynn School on Cesar Chavez and Harrison to speak up for a livable street!
Identical. That is unless you don't count the price of gas is higher by 1600%.
