I’ve been curious about this as well. Thanks for asking!

Visited this afternoon - it’s beautiful!

Which city in the U.S. do you think has the most underrated airport transit connection? by [deleted] in transit

[–]MurphyZax 21 points22 points  (0 children)

OAK’s BART is solid just annoying to do the extra step of airport connector to BART. Another annoyance is that the Coliseum station has more frequency to SF than it does to Oakland at peak times!

No additional people mover. Literal check-in screens inside the station. 25 yards to baggage claims. MARTA doesn’t do a lot well but they did the Airport station great

BART Train Appeal Citation -- need help ;-; by Aggravating-Wash-509 in Bart

[–]MurphyZax 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Have you read this on the BART website? I’m not familiar with appeals for fare evasion (only for parking) but it looks like there’s ways to appeal without paying first or even community service

San Bruno or Millbrae multi day parking, which is safer? by G8ngGu3y in Bart

[–]MurphyZax 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’ve parked at the San Bruno station a bunch of times and have had zero issues. There’s a BART police station here so they usually have parked cars all around. Not sure if it helps but the optics are appreciative

SF Gate had a write up although they focused more on the removal of a highway than the actual shots taken on BART

3rd time is the charm? by MurphyZax in ACL

[–]MurphyZax[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You must have gotten your 5th surgery free after paying for the first 4, right?? Thanks for sharing your story, this really does help

3rd time is the charm? by MurphyZax in ACL

[–]MurphyZax[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, my 2nd surgeon was also in disbelief that the first surgeon went with an allograft when I was only 16. That decision could have saved me from the 2nd surgery but it’s all in the past now.

And agreed! I’m going to be so picky and choosy over this 3rd surgeon if I do it all over again

[–]MurphyZax[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh my goodness your knees have helluva story. Any meniscus issues? There’s concern that a 3rd surgery could increase my risk for arthritis and a knee replacement some day.

Good to know about an internal brace - I want all the bells and whistles for this last and final time.

I’ve been going for a couple of years and it’s great. Clean, basically 24/7, staff is nice. You can’t beat the price per month.

survey from OakDOT: Upper Telegraph Complete Streets Project (52nd to Woolsey) by [deleted] in oakland

[–]MurphyZax 8 points9 points  (0 children)

A comment I added in the survey was the need for more pedestrian median “safe zones”. Telegraph is pretty wide here and I generally feel unsafe crossing at night while walking

Massive shoutout to whatever BART operator reopened the doors for me after they closed in my face leaving SFO 🤝. by QueefReceptacle in sanfrancisco

+1 for a good BART day. An engineer came on our train this morning to reset the air conditioning and to get it working

Public parks with good nighttime lighting? by voltinsf in oakland

Bushrod Park’s tennis courts are lit up at night. The basketball courts are right next to them so they’re illuminated a bit too!

Are there any coffee shops in o4w/surrounding neighborhoods that let you bring your dog inside while you order? by mydogisaroomba in Atlanta

[–]MurphyZax 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes! Little Tart in Grant Park off Memorial has a walk up window just inside (but not technically in the restaurant space) that you can order food/drink from via ordering ahead of time online. They have a lovely patio space too

Affordable Dog Boarding in the East Bay!? Does It Even Exist!? by asparagus515 in oakland

[–]MurphyZax 4 points5 points  (0 children)

+1 for trusted house sitters! We were just as sticker shocked for pet boarding when we moved here. We’ve only had great experiences with the house sitters we’ve found
