But what’s this, the everyday price for a can of black beans is less than a dollar? Quelle surprise!
Now, here’s a scene you’ll just have to get used to: an aging, go-to-hell Volvo blocking a new Toyota Prius on Stanyan while waiting to get into the lot:
But three parking lot attendants (seems a bit overstaffed but whatever) and a uniformed security guard seemed to have things under control when I dropped by.
(Shoplifters will have a tougher time practicing their craft at this super as compared to the predecessor, one might guess)
Bon Courage Whole Foods Haight Ashbury!

La Cocina’s Global to Local Food Festival went off today without a hitch at the Stanyan Street parking lot of our soon-to-open Whole Foods Upper Haight.
Check it. No millionaire NIMBYs in this particular shot, but they were out in force today. (They’s everywhere.)

Sadly, beer imbibers were walled off from the rest of the crowd:
But look! Almost all of the graffiti is gone:
Wet paint, indeed.
All’s that’s left to do is count the days until the Feb. 16th Grand Opening.
Bon Courage, WFHA!

[UPDATE: Hey, have you heard any boycott talk about this gro sto? No? Me neither. Oh, wait, that's right, this joint is outside the Fiefdom of NIMBY Valley. Carry on...]
Remember back in the day, when taggers only graffitoed buildings nearby our still-under-construction Whole Foods?
Good times:

Well now the little monsters are back, but this time they’re lifting their legs on the store itself.
Check it – here’s what Jackson Fuller, Your San Francisco Real Estate Team has recently documented:

Oh snap!
It begins.
But please, urban artists, cease forthwith. You don’t want to make adorable WF “Haight Community Liason” Nicole Watt cry, do you?
O.K. then.
But I’m sure they’ll have the scribblings cleaned up in time for the Sacred Bread (I’m seriously – they have some weird traditions down Texas Way) ceremony on Opening Day, Wednesday, February 16th 2011, ZOMG!
See?
Bon Courage, Whole Foods Haight!

This is the scene at the end of Haight Street these days. Seems that someone is displeased with the Whole Foods moving in.
Nevertheless, this new gro sto should be open by Christmas 2010…
