Letter to the Editor: Against Engardio Recall
Supervisor Engardio’s position on the Great Highway closure does NOT justify a recall. While I disagreed with him on Prop. K, I also know him to be honest, hard-working and dedicated to the needs of our district as well as our City.
Letter to the Editor: Engardio Should Resign
To all you paid and unpaid supporters of Engardio, if you think the recall effort is a waste of time and money, then convince Engardio to resign!

New York City resident Woofter, 47, who looks closer to 30, grew up in San Leandro and spent a lot of time in San Francisco, while his now-retired father, Tom Woofter, worked as an attorney in the Financial District.

Big Crowd Witnesses Turning Upper Great Highway Into Sunset Dunes
Before Proposition K was on the ballot, another westside promenade stirred fervor in westsiders. Three years ago, in April of 2022, the San Francisco Board of Supervisors established a permanently car-free John F. Kennedy (JFK) Drive in Golden Gate Park, after voters voted to keep JFK walkable, as it was during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, and most weekends out of the year before that. Five years later, it is difficult to imagine that the mile-and-a-half stretch was once one of the City’s major arteries for cars.
@andeverything__nice: Romantic Richmond Date Night
Hokkaido Sashimi Marketplace has become my go-to for casual sushi. The fish marketplace is a local favorite. The fish is some of the freshest in the City, and it is the perfect spot for a meal on the go. The quality of fish versus the low price point is quite a deal for San Francisco! Inside the shop, you’ll find nigiri boxes, sashimi plates of fatty tuna, poke bowls and plenty of cut rolls – all under $20 each. For two, I recommend picking up a couple of boxes and a couple of miso soups. When checking out, make sure you peek and see if they still have the spam musubi in stock – it always goes fast!
