Contrast on 17th Street. Photo by Louis Potok

It is 10:04 a.m. but these photos were taken earlier. It is now 55˚ and expected to rise to 61˚ and we will get a brief respite from the rain that resumes tomorrow.    Details for the next ten days here.

Today’s block is 16th to 17th St, Potrero to Bryant. This block contains The Soka Gakkai International USA San Francisco Culture Center, a gas station, an abandoned car wash, but most of all it contains Franklin Park. From the very top you can see downtown, or south to Bernal Hill, or east to Sutro Tower. This block notes a clear division between the human-scale Mission and the enormous parking lot and shopping complex across 16th street.

With the light good early on, so much the better to sign on to document your block. Don’t wait!  Let us know what day and block you would like at info@missionlocal.com.

You can see a map of all of the blocks here.  The blocks in grey are being saved for others who have signed up. Let us save a block for you as well.
