The San Francisco Citizen

Well the concrete slabs are starting to stack up in the Civic Center - it’s a parking garage/retail space project. The 1200 students at vaunted UC Hastings School of Law (the oldest and largest law school west of St. Louis, or something) have enjoyed discounted parking at the Civic Center Garage for years.

It might be a pain to park here, under the shadow of the new Infinity San Francisco towers, but at least you won’t get the boot, or get into a chain reaction accident, or get all messy. Of course, if you work for San Francisco Honda, then just park wherever - the sidewalk, for example.

Now you’re all set.

Yesterday marked the start of the second season of car-free Saturdays in Golden Gate park. It’s just a small part of JFK Drive - compare the difference with car-free Sundays.

Most drivers heading west aren’t allowed to turn left, so it looks like a U-turn is the only option.

The underused “Accessible Tram” and the quasi-ban on deliveries to the nearby deYoung museum are both results of le Grand compromis de 2007, which sets in stone the rules for Healthy Saturdays for the next five years at least.

Happy cycling.
