What’s “new” here except for the video itself?
“San Francisco’s new sweet spots “ by losangelestimes :
VIDEO
In closing, “Oh … I don’t go to the Avenues.”
Heh.
In mitigation:
I want to live in los angeles
Not the one in los angeles
No, not the one in south california
They got one in south patagonia

We all know ALDO, but who was BRANNAN?
As seen on the Embarcadero :

Check it , it’s amazing.
After the murder of church leader Joseph Smith, Jr. , in June 1844, the Latter Day Saints decided to relocate their center from Nauvoo ,Illinois . Several possible destinations were discussed, including the Mexican territory of Alta California . In February 1846, with the approval of church leaders, Brannan and 245 other Latter Day Saints from New York set sail aboard the ship Brooklyn for upper California via Cape Horn . Brannan had an antiquated printing press and a complete flour mill on board. After a stop in Honolulu , Hawaii , they landed, on July 31, 1846, at the Mexican port town of Yerba Buena , present-day San Francisco, tripling the population of the pueblo . Brannan was appointed as the first mission president of the California LDS Mission .
Anyway, we honor this shyster these days every time we mention Brannan Street.
Hey, how about a name change?

Pedestrians who feel “safe” are more likely to kill themselves whilst jaywalking, non?
Je demande juste.
And speaking of Market and Castro, is this going to save lives?
IDK.
In closing, San Francisco pedestrians are the worst in these United States.
