Neighborhood News

Compiled by Lindsay Adams

(Editor’s note: Each month, we now include with news and information from our focus neighborhoods a question posed to random residents that pertain to their area, the city or what’s going on in the world around us.)

This month’s question: If you could do one thing to improve your neighborhood, what would it be?”

Alamo Square
“Our neighborhood is making great progress, especially in the last several years. The improvement in Divisadero Street has been wonderful with the new businesses, the parklet at MoJo café and bicycle shop and several other new businesses. The greening of the street from Geary to Haight has added immeasurably to our community with special thanks to Mayor Gavin Newsom and Supervisor Ross Mirkarimi.
“What Divisadero Street needs now is a great bakery and a good bookstore and some clothing and shoe stores. We could use a little more attention to the park at Alamo Square, but our gardener, Vicki, is doing the best job she can with no help.”
—Owen O’Donnell, Alamo Square Neighborhood Association Board Member
