From the amazing wire service known as “the Facebook” comes this invite to meet your Alamo Square-area neighbors at a Drinks Around Alamo Square Event on Tuesday, November 9th. The event obviously takes place during Madrone’s Happy Hour from 5:30 – 7:30pm, which makes it very easy for us to attend, but you should probably [...]
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 [...]
Remember that time some people tried to create a park at the Arco station at Fell and Divisadero? The fact that I still had to dodge motorists in the bike lane on Fell yesterday tells me that those Fix Fell folks haven’t made a whole lot of progress (although not for lack of trying – [...]
Hey look, it’s back! In case you hadn’t noticed all the signs in literally every shop window on Divis, our tri-monthly Art Walk returns to Divisadero this Thursday night, so round up all of your friends from other neighborhoods and get ready to pack the sidewalks. The weather’s supposed to be great (not that we [...]
Can you belt out Motown like Aretha? Can you get down with James Brown? I can’t! But if you can, you should definitely hit this week’s edition of Motown on Mondays (M.O.M. if brevity is your thing) at Madrone, because our friends at the only heavily-armed art bar in the neighborhood and/or city have dug [...]
Hey, look at that, friend and neighbor Kelly Malone from Workshop/Indie Mart is teaming up with the 27-year-old Alamo Square Flea Market to bring a whole truckload of Estate and Antique finds, as well as the usual indie designers, rebuilt vintage, DIY projects to the neighborhood this Saturday, August 21st from 9am-3pm.
The last time we [...]
So it turns out the Arco/BP Shutdown party wasn’t just a one time thing and the Facebook Revolutionaries behind the protest are doing this weekly now (who knew?). More importantly though, last Friday’s protest not only angered a lot of drivers, but it apparently pissed off Arco Station owner Larry Armstrong who, according to facebook [...]
At this point we all really hate British Petroleum, right? And in the neighborhood, I think most of us agree that we already hated the Arco at Fell and Divis because that fucking place was really a pain in the ass to pull into and then you had to pay in cash at that stupid [...]
This weekend is the most in-the-middle-of-May of all the weekends in May, and I think we all know that this marks the yearly return of one of our greatest traditions. That’s right, it’s the 10th Anniversary of the North of Panhandle Neighborhood Block Party on Saturday! Bring the kids!
In case you’re new to the neighborhood, [...]
If you’re semi-decent at math, you could probably figure out that the next Divisadero Art Walk is going to be on Thursday, June 4th. But since these things always get us super excited around here, we’re feeling the need to point out that our friends behind the every-three-months cheap(er) booze session have officially updated their [...]
