A plan for the City to take over & manage the Music Concourse Garage is moving forward this week. Under the proposal, we would take ownership of the 800-space underground parking facility, while the @SFMTA_Muni would manage its operation. Details here: tinyurl.com/ydr7zv9m

We found a flash drive near the fairy door in Golden Gate Park and... this was the only file on the drive?? A gift from ✨Sister Magic✨ to San Francisco? It appears the Howlers have a story to tell about JFK Promenade. 👀 – at San Francisco, CA

Our economic recovery will be built on a foundation of a strong transportation system. @SFMTA_Muni has been making progress bringing lines back and making improvements to speed up bus service, but we still we have more to do: londonbreed.medium.com/munis… – at San Francisco, CA

Picking up groceries with an F-150 is like... Cracking nuts with a sledgehammer or Making toast with a flamethrower. 6 out of 10 trips are under 5 miles. Love this ad from the UK.

So it looks like the Supervisors are NOT going to take a break for other business & public comment on #CarFreeJFK will continue through the afternoon instead of starting back up this evening. We need to keep the ❤️ coming if you can call in! sfbos.org/sites/default/file…

In March, I introduced legislation to make JFK Drive in Golden Gate Park car-free permanently. Today, it's up for a vote. Change requires work, and this change is worth it. Staff is working with advocates, community, and the museums on accessibility, parking, and delivery access.

Today we’re introducing legislation at the Board of Supervisors to implement car-free JFK and a number of changes to promote access, equity, and transportation to Golden Gate Park: teapawt.net/myrpressoffice/status/…
I support the proposed closure to car traffic on JFK Drive. This has been an essential space for our residents and families during this pandemic, and I believe it can be a long-term benefit to this city. We have a lot of work to do to address a number of issues we've heard.

The Great Pandemic Reset Continues: SF mayor recommends permanently banning cars from a park road pedestrianized in 2020. NYC's Central Park went car-free in 2018. Driving through a park is a personal convenience. A park without cars is a public service. sfchronicle.com/sf/article/S…

Currently we are having a major overflow of bicycles and are in need of getting rid of them ASAP to make room as we are running out of room (too crowded during open hours)! Come pick one up for $20-$80 (depending on bike). Lots of good, ridable commuters, kids' bikes, etc, etc.
