a few more miscellaneous from yesterday...
the one on Market at the Fast Frame site across from former Flax, shroud-less
Serif
the remodeled one on Folsom and Hawthorne
hotel at 72 Ellis near Powell
120 Stockton (Macy's)
Sutter and Grant, I think
the affordable project at the foot of Telegraph Hill near the Embarcadero (and right behind where the recently-approved Teatro ZinZanni will be) was much further along than I had expected. will be so great to have that whole area filled in!
corner of Front and Broadway
I had not realized that the make-over of Folsom St extended all the way to the block where Infinity sits (Main), but, lo:
speaking of Folsom, I just can't resist throwing in a pic now and then of its shining new-ness
the little passageway at 400 Folsom has a new piece of artwork with a well-executed illusion
the work on the make-over had definitely progressed since I was there last
I think this was the corner that was all torn up in my and John King's article's photos
the little greenspace in progress on Guy Place, just up the hill from Folsom. think the original plan had been for the space to step down with the slope of the hill, but to make it ADA-compliant would have used up too much of the space with ramps, so it is level. unfortunate side-effect is that the downhill neighbor(s) now have a wall in front of their windows, and is/are upset about this, I seem to remember reading
Second St is also undergoing a make-over, of course, and work has shifted to the blocks south of the freeway overpass. here you can see the bit of widening the east sidewalk is getting
alleys get raised entrances (this one at 21st Amendment)

and to the south
