I got a bit obsessed with the street art on Clement. I wanted to figure out who kept painting over it with the worst shade of gray—only to figure out that you and I are the ones paying to paint it over. Here's the story: www.sfgate.com/local/articl...

A more sinister SF problem is hiding within this gray Inner Richmond wall
A war over a wall on an abandoned property in San Francisco's Inner Richmond exemplifies a crisis in the city.

fascinated by a rhetorical strategy i see all the time now, which is making up an extreme edge case to argue against doing anything for the public good, and doing this from the putative left.

This paragraph was quite the ride! From this great story by @henrygrabar.bsky.social on Bogotá's Ciclovía: slate.com/business/202...

Love this piece on community-led daylighting. The good news: neighbors are trying! The bad news: SF wants to charge them $1k to jump through a half-dozen hurdles to get a Shared Spaces permit.🙃 Folks will *volunteer* to do the city's job—but only if they're given the chance.

How S.F. can protect pedestrians from crashes and drivers from unfair tickets
San Francisco doesn’t have enough money to paint California-mandated “daylighting” no-parking zones red. There’s a better way to comply with the law.

Btw “the politics of streets lie downstream from experience” is my new thesis until proven otherwise. Let’s create better streets and show people what’s possible.

One thing a lot of people don't realize about the Barcelona Superblocks is that all of them allow cars. Look at the number of garages. The key is making the street not lead anywhere useful so people don't constantly drive through.

The tile work on this building is so so good.

This is the best bit of wayfinding San Francisco has had in years. Not since the “bike route to beach” sign have we had something as helpful and straightforward as this marker for a big redwood root. It also doubles as a small bike jump! 10/10

SF in October is just so magical. The light, the temperature, the vibe. Pictures just don’t do it justice.
