It’s end-of-year giving season—and we have matching funds.
Good afternoon!
A week into the Mission St. vending ban, the plazas are mostly clear as long as city enforcement teams are on duty. But the sanctioned indoor spaces, rented by the city for $100,000, are largely empty, and some vendors keep popping up on sidewalks. See our report and updated map.
Here’s a lovely story about Mission chef Aminta Calderon, whom we’ve followed for a decade through reporting on her family restaurant at the Mission Market, the deadly fire that destroyed her business, and now her re-opening of Antojitos on 24th Street.

More soon,
