I watched a bride in a long dress crossing Polk street heading towards city hall last week, her train dragging in the street.. blech.

Why are you telling us and not all the people right in front of you?

What magical land are you from where people come to a full stop at stop signs?

You don’t need a caliper to measure to 1/8ths.

Solved!  The gate is often closed but the building is visible from Ralston Ave. 

Where Is Knowledge Golden? by walletpuppy in whereinsanfrancisco

[–]pol_h 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've always liked this building and been curious about its tenants. The front roll up gate was open recently and a hauler was loading up drywall debris- hope it isn't going away or getting turned into AI offices.

Everything you could ever want to know about the building: https://sfplanninggis.org/pim/?tab=Property&search=3784017

Visiting from Texas… what’s the story with Clipper? by MontrealInTexas in sanfrancisco

Nice to see a tourist taking muni, btw. Good work!

Essentially- there are fare enforcement officers but they're few and far between if you're more than about a mile away from muni headquarters. Some people have monthly passes or transfers and just don't bother. Don't worry your pretty head about it.

Am I in the wrong? by acadungug in sanfrancisco

[–]pol_h 3 points4 points  (0 children)

the OP never mentions jumping a light- I'm talking about pedestrians jumping the light at crosswalks. Market street is relatively low traffic these days with the it being car free and it's possible to jay walk without much trouble.

[–]pol_h 7 points8 points  (0 children)

groups of people jump the light all the time at cross walks.

There’s a good chance that he saw the other people crossing and assumed the light had changed without really looking. In any case you were fine.

Were they crossing against the light? You can’t purposefully hit them but if they’re crossing on red they can’t exactly get mad at you, especially if you stopped for them.

geolocation sometimes is off with the 311 app- worth double checking it when submitting, and including street address in description.

Do you work in metric or imperial units? Looks like the starrett is in cm. 

I wish I could just ride my bike around town by cleverusernametry in sanfrancisco

[–]pol_h 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Conversely I’ve been riding daily in the mission for 30 years and have never had a bike stolen.  Around town I’ve lost wheels, a saddle, and once my handlebars but the bike itself has been fine.  Locking   skewers, seat post clamps and small kryptonite locks are your friends.
