Photo of the Day: It’s in the Cloud.
Late last week, I took a walk by Moscone West (747 Howard St.) and managed to capture a crew on a platform rig applying this Salesforce cloud banner to the side of the building for Dreamforce, 2011. I’m actually planning to attend Dreamforce on Thursday afternoon. I’m not a developer, but I’m very interested to [...]
Photo of the Day: Rincon Hill Dog Park – 59 Stories Above
Last week, I was fortunate enough to be invited up top of One Rincon Hill, the tallest skyscraper in South of Market, to shoot some aerial footage for last night’s South of Market: Past, Present and Future video that premiered at the Old Mint. While I was there, I realized that it was directly above [...]
Photo of the Day: Did Somebody Call the Grammer Police?
Every once in a while, I like to take a look around Craigslist, just to see all of the crazy things people post. The other day, I came across this post, in reference to the “Thats Califor’ya” Mural near the corner of Seventh and Folsom. There’s a newly completed mural at 7th and Folsom (across [...]
Photo(s) of the Day: New Mural on Howard Street!
I tend to keep my eye on new murals whenever they pop up in South of Market. Some are started and seemingly never finished, while others seem to pop up almost overnight. This mural, depicting some sort of Native American Superheroin has been sitting at the corner of Howard and Mary Streets (between 5th and [...]
2011 LGBT Pride Parade Photo Recap
Aside from what is more than likely an unrelated shooting incident, San Francisco’s 2011 LGBT Pride Weekend seemingly went off without a hitch. I had a rather busy weekend, but still managed to catch a couple hours of the 4+ hour long parade, though I admit that I wish I had more time, and even [...]
Photo of the Day: High Theft Rate of Coffee in SOMA?
Over the weekend, I stopped in at one of South of Market’s many Walgreens stores, and I discovered something rather strange. I don’t normally follow the shoplifting trends in our neighborhood. Not because I don’t find such things interesting, but because I’m not entirely sure where to find them. But according to this lock box [...]
Photo(s) of the Day: The Illuminated Nest Has Migrated…
A little late on this one, but towards the end of March, the Illuminated Eggs- created by artist, Rob Buchholz- that were housed at the corner of 5th and Shipley for the past few months, were picked up and moved to a quieter location in the Alice Street Community Gardens. The illuminated nest has migrated [...]
Photo of the Day: What’s Wrong With This Picture?
If you’re looking for something to kill a couple minutes of your day, click on the photo above to enlarge it, and see if you can spot something odd. No, it’s not anything to do with Chavos (595 Bryant St) or the intentionally vague Levi’s billboard. Look closer. Any ideas? Alright. In an effort to not [...]
Photo of the Day: Oldest Tricks in the Book…
This make-shift street vendor tent has been sitting on the corner of 4th and Bryant every afternoon since the Giants won the World Series. We’ve never mentioned it because they ALWAYS have this sign in the front that claims it is the “Last Day”. Apparently it’s the day that never ends as they’ve been there [...]
Photo of the Day: A Convertible Trolley?
A reader sent this shot in last week. I’ve actually seen this Trolley a couple of times along Market Street. I would imagine it’s only good on sunny days, knowing how the temperatures can vary in the wind tunnel that is Market. They should totally rent this out for Bachelor Parties and any other traveling event. I [...]
