Four new neighborhoods. Four dedicated reporters. Zero paywalls. Help us stay free for all of San Francisco.
Right now it is 60° with a high of 70° – the forecast for the next ten days is here.
Today’s block: Valencia to Stevenson, Duboce to McCoppin.
There are only a handful of blocks left, so take a look at the map and let us know if you want to claim one of them. We’re at info@missionlocal.com.
You can see a map of all of the blocks here.
I’ve been a Mission resident since 1998 and a professor emeritus at Berkeley’s J-school since 2019. I got my start in newspapers at the Albuquerque Tribune in the city where I was born and raised. Like many local news outlets, The Tribune no longer exists. I left daily newspapers after working at The New York Times for the business, foreign and city desks. Lucky for all of us, it is still here.
As an old friend once pointed out, local has long been in my bones. My Master’s Project at Columbia, later published in New York Magazine, was on New York City’s experiment in community boards.
As founder and an editor at ML, I've been trying to figure out how to make my interest in local news sustainable. If Mission Local is a model, the answer might be that you - the readers - reward steady and smart content. As a thank you for that support we work every day to make our content even better.
