Here’s the news of the day, via the San Francisco Business Times: 3700 post office branches are set to be shut down by the USPS.
Here’s what’s on the chopping block in San Francisco:
| BAYVIEW |
SAN FRANCISCO |
94124 |
| CIVIC CNTR P O BOX UNIT |
SAN FRANCISCO |
94102 |
| FEDERAL BUILDING SAN FRAN |
SAN FRANCISCO |
94102 |
| MCLAREN STATION |
SAN FRANCISCO |
94134 |
| VISITACION STATION |
SAN FRANCISCO |
94134 |
Mmmm.
Now the Federal Building PO is just a little thing, sort of a secret for those in the know – no waiting there. And the Civic Center PO Box Unit, well that’s not really a PO anymore anyway.
So.
We’re going to lose three full-fledged POs and they all just happen to be in the southeast corner?
Two in the 94134…

…and one in the 94124:

Uh….
Uh….
WTF, USPS?
What’s that? You spent all your money sponsoring that drugged-up cyclist? All right, but this one is not going to go down well…
See the entire “Expanded Access study list” for California after the jump.

All the deets, as of last year:
How would you like to become landed gentry for less than what you’re paying to rent a studio in the Tenderloin? Well, then get on over to 1345 Turk.com, where it’ll soon be on like Donkey Kong.
Imagine living right near all the those new nightlife spots on Fillmore - and you’d be less than 400 yards from Alamo Square and the Painted Ladies.
There might be a lottery involved, but you can’t win if you don’t play…

Be sure to invite me over for a BBQ after you get settled in!
And just look at the artwork they have! I call this crop “Andre the Giant walks to his red SAAB 900″

Bon courage!

San Francisco City Attorney Dennis J Herrera is going after the owner / operator of 414 Mason, the site of the recent Union Square shootout that resulted in the death of German tourist Mechthild Schröer. (The SFPD is still working on this case – they were down in Fremont yesterday.)
Mr. Herrera is alleging that the August 8th party was illegal and overcrowded. All the deets are below.
San Francisco’s Happy Warrior, DJH:

Herrera initiates legal action against teen party venue in Union Square tourist shooting. Demand letter to owner, operator of rental space alleges Fire Code violations, unlawful business practices in ‘horrific incident’
SAN FRANCISCO (Aug. 13, 2010) — City Attorney Dennis Herrera has taken a step toward suing the owner and operator of a Union Square venue where an illegal, overcrowded party for high school-aged youths last Sunday was marred by gunfire that injured two teens and took the life a German tourist.
Herrera’spre-litigation demand letter to Joseph Ursino, owner of the building at 414 Mason Street, and Curtis Matthews, who rented out the party space, alleges that the two face, “at a minimum, civil liability for violating the California Fire Code and for unlawful business practices.” Such violations can be punishable by fines and penalties as well as disgorgement of all profits related to the unlawful conduct. The letter sent this morning acknowledges that the City Attorney’s Office is also evaluating the potential liability of Labriette Collins, the event’s promoter.
“Because of the tragic circumstances and grave public safety concerns surrounding the event and how you and others managed it, I will seek full legal redress to affirm public confidence in laws intended to protect the safety of San Francisco’s residents and visitors,” Herrera’s letter states. “Vigorous enforcement of these laws is additionally essential to guarantee fair treatment to the vast majority of responsible entertainment business operators, who invest the care and expense necessary to abide by the law, and who comprise one of our City’s most important economic sectors.”
All the deets, and the demand letter itself, after the jump.

This was the scene last night on Sutter and Hyde in San Francisco’s Tenderloin (aka Tender Nob, aka “Theatre”) District last night just after the New York Yankees won the World Series. With all the boisterousness, passersby could tell that some kind of mayhem was afoot even from a block away.
And then when the crowd started belting out “New York, New York,” well, you started to suspect that Yelp-rated Ace’s Bar just might have a New York theme.
“Welcome to the Bronx Zoo” juxtaposed with “Quiet Please“ - Click to expand:

Neon signs celebrating both the Yankees and the Mets:

Owners Scott and Barbi beseech you to “Get your ass to Ace’s”
“With inexpensive prices and the cleanest bathrooms in the city, Aces brings the unique vibe of NY to the laid back streets of San Francisco.”
So, when you pine for Fair Gotham, Get Your Ass to Ace’s post-haste.
It’ll soon become your little piece of 10001 in the 94109.

San Francisco’s City Hall was swarmed with people the day this undated photo was taken, but when was that?
It’s hard to say - the 1930′s? The twin fountains and the lollipop trees should be good clues…

You know what makes you better than all those melon farmers out there? It’s the fact that you hang your hat every night in the City and County of San Francisco. That makes you special. To celebrate you, the California Academy of Sciences is offering free admission for you (and your neighbors). Just match up your zip code with the handy chart below, gather up the necessary proof of where you reside, and head on over to Golden Gate Park.
And the nice thing about this free admission program is that it probably won’t be as crowded as it sometimes gets on the third Wednesday of the month, when everyone gets in sans tariff.
Celebrated Missionites getting a little camera time in front of the green screen before entering the Cal Academy yesterday. Bide your time, your free day is coming:

Thanks, Bank of America.
