@_jimnelson_@mastodon.social Many years ago, the Noe Valley Voice ran a piece on how the numbered streets in Noe used to have names, replaced with numbers in the 1800s if I recall correctly.
For example, Navy Street was renamed 26th Street, which makes the fuss over Army's street renaming sound rather silly to me. Expect it to come up again now that Cesar Chavez has been disgraced in the public eye.

Last Days of Playland, 1968-72
Scanning about 100 slides and trying to sort out the dates, both of these have the same processing date of Sept 1972, one is obviously earlier & was reprinted on a Kodachrome Duplicate slide mount. I mean, there weren't 2 of these benches. #sfhistory #playland #sanfrancisco

I'm still here, I have photos to prove it. (All photos I post are mine unless specifically stated otherwise.) Proud Canadian. (mostly) My non-pinned posts are set to delete after 2 months. No alt text, no boost. I periodically go through old jpegs folders looking for something and end up posting what might be a lot of images.

Remember the big blackout in SF? And how we were curious about why the ballet had generators and the rest of the neighborhood was in the darkness for days?
Turns out the mayor personally requested for it for his daughter’s performance

Happy Superb Owl Day! 🦉 Sharing #SuperbOwl artwork to celebrate. I loved painting this great horned owl in watercolor, the owl that stayed in our pine tree all day. 20x16 framed, greeting visitors at Moraga Art Gallery thru March 15. A wonderful #SanFrancisco #BayArea gallery! Please visit https://moragaartgallery.com 🎨 I'm so happy to be a featured artist!

San Francisco is learning tonight that a massive power outage, huge rainstorm and anything driven (sic) by AI is an utter mess - as WYAMO auto-cars refuse to operate and block traffic
This is darkly hilarious
