Aggressive Photo of the Day: Push Button For…

by Andrew Dalton on September 29, 2010

It’s been awhile since we’ve done one of these not-so-daily photo features, but this gem from Page & Divis by the always delightful Tenderloin Geographic Society is too good to let slide. I’ve been so conditioned to look at half-assed street art that I almost didn’t notice the donut.

by Andrew Dalton on September 17, 2010

As we mentioned yesterday today is PARK(ing) Day, where a bunch of people around the city will be occupying parking spaces in the name of reclaiming public green space, etc, etc. We could sit around and declare this a Bike People vs. Car People thing or whatever, but at the end of the day, it [...]

by Andrew Dalton on August 26, 2010

Apropos of nothing other than AggPan’s selfish desire to be the #1 Google result for “Gavin’s Hair” – here is said Hair at James Denman Middle School:

I hope that’s a Venti Green Tea, Mr. Mayor, I heard about your problem with “coffee”.

Dearest Divisadero

by Andrew Dalton on August 24, 2010

It’s so hot outside, no one even wants to sit out on the sidewalk seating along Divis, but judging from this recently scrawled note in the Bean Bag Cafe bathroom, some brave soul toughed out the heat for long enough to pen a heartfelt goodbye to our rehabbed thoroughfare:
“Dearest Divisadero,
Thank you for everything. You have [...]

New Sidewalk Cafe at Fell & Divis

by Andrew Dalton on June 18, 2010

I’ve noticed this dirt-cheap hot dog offer in the past (which may or may not be related to the hot dog cart guy that hangs out in front of the Independent), but now they’ve got a table and chairs out in front of the convenience store at the 76 Station. Because if there’s one thing [...]

Breaking News: Old Dude Has Knife; Single Handedly Threatening To Roll Back Gentrification.

by nedhepburn on June 3, 2010

This dude infront of the Bean Bag Cafe had a knife and threatened to kill a number of crust-punk kids sitting outside. I don’t know why. I don’t even care. I just think that the guy has seen ‘Death Wish’ one too many times because God knows we all have opinions about gentrification in [...]

Five Star Truffles Gets Clean-Bombed

by Andrew Dalton on May 6, 2010

Because we’d hate to see the whole internet become one big  blog about tagging, here’s a guy hard at work removing some 19-year old’s scribblings from the window of Five Star Truffles on Divis.
Now, here would be a good place to go on a rant about how making a bunch of loopy, indecipherable letters on [...]

Additional Hot Chicks at Art Openings

by Andrew Dalton on April 6, 2010

Mike Giant posted some photos from his art opening/friend’s brithday party at Bender’s last week, which I know isn’t technically in the neighborhood, but Giant was our neighbor for the lognest time, so I’m contractually obligated to post photos from any of his events. It’s not so bad when they’re gems like the one of [...]
