Letter to the Editor: Prop. B, Let’s Not Approve the Next Scandal
No City government should gamble our precious, essential public resources on running a risky “Public Bank.” Not now, not in the future, no matter how hard elected officials campaign promoting it.
Real Estate: John M. Lee
For decades, San Francisco’s west side was treated as the City’s quieter real estate bet: foggy residential blocks, family-run businesses, immigrant commercial corridors and rows of single-family homes that felt comparatively attainable by local standards. That old assumption is losing ground. In the Richmond and Sunset districts, limited housing supply, larger remodels, changing retail corridors and pressure for new housing along transit routes are altering both neighborhood identity and property values.
Tillage Coworking Creates Community Among Remote Workers
Tillage, a coworking space, is nearing its 11th month operating in the Inner Sunset District.
Everything Nice: A Warm Welcome on Taraval
Taraval Street has always matched the energy from the people who live around it – bakeries and coffee counters open early, and this stretch of Parkside keeps a slower pace than much of the City. Among the longtime neighborhood favorites, enters the newest arrival: Welcome Coffee & Goods, which found its home at 425 Taraval St., near 14th Avenue. The shop is both a place to order a coffee and a place to dig through the racks for vintage clothing. As the sign outside states, “Come for the coffee, stay for the goods.”

September used to be the month I returned to school after being released in the middle of June. That’s gone with the wind. San Francisco public schools opened up for business on Monday, Aug. 17, two weeks before Labor Day. My Napa grandsons, Emmett and Brooks (16 and 12) reported for academic duty in their schools on Aug. 10. Naturally, football practice began even before that.
Surfers Shane Curnyn and Josh Lowe Co-Create Juniper Architecture
Shane Curnyn and Josh Lowe left the East Coast separately, chasing the same vision: a city dense enough to support an architecture practice and an ocean close enough to surf before work. Fifteen years after founding Juniper Architecture, the two principals run their firm in a former motorcycle repair shop on Balboa Street, blocks away from their favorite surf spot near the Cliff House.

State Senate: Scott Wiener
As San Francisco students head back to school, families across the City are getting ready for a new year. Over the past few weeks, I’ve met families at backpack giveaways in the Sunset and Chinatown, and it’s been great to see how excited so many kids are to get back into the classroom.
