This weekend's final Sunday Streets of the year was a big success despite the fog.
On Friday, Streetsblog reported Mayor Newsom's announcement that Sunday Streets will become a permanent event starting in 2010 "with more routes, longer hours, more San Francisco neighborhoods and more programs at each event."
Newsom's office is talking about having eight or nine Sunday Streets events next year, and it will likely be expanded to underserved neighborhoods like the Tenderloin and Western Addition and "loop around to the great lawn at City Hall as home base."
In addition to Sunday Streets and car-free Golden Gate Park on Sundays, there's also talk of turning San Francisco roads that aren't heavily used on the weekends into permanent closures on Sundays as well, leaving them as blank canvases for the community to organize their own activities.

The "Great Lawn at City Hall," she is no more. Just a big yellowish rectangular gravel plain where the Victory Garden used to be.
As it was before the VG:

Wondeful to hear that Sunday Streets is no longer a pilot thing ...
Congratulations to Susan King, Cheryl Brinkman, and all of the wonderful San Francisco Bicycle Coalition, Walk San Francisco, Livable City, and other volunteers who made this a wonderful new community event!
The folks in the pic seriously need hula hoop lessons. Hopefully they can include the lessons with Sunday Streets (permits be damned, right, Lindy Folks?).
Hoop Girl to the rescue!
