SF's 30-year-old Drug Court was intended for non-violent drug offenders to avoid jail for low-level drug crimes. But now people with pretty violent charges are sneaking in, and Supervisor Matt Dorsey ain't happy about it. San Francisco's Drug Court was established in 1995, and is meant as a diversion program so that low-level drug offenders can avoid normal court and jail, and instead get "services in the community designed to get them out of their drug and crime situations.
The Lower Pacific Heights Victorian at 1709 Broderick Street, which served as the façade of the Tanner's ' Full House ' home, has just sold for $4 million. Designed by Charles Lewis Hinkel and built in 1883, the home previously traded hands for $1.85 million in 2006, after which it was renovated, remodeled and expanded (down) to encompass 2,985 square feet of finished living space and a gate was added to keep the Full Housians, and Uncle Jesse, away from the repainted front door.

District 5 Supervisor Bilal Mahmood is calling for more transparency at the San Francisco Mayor's Office of Housing after he discovered that the department had "lost track" of about $5 million sitting in an account waiting to be used for an affordable housing project in the Tenderloin. The city approved a development project with 85 affordable housing units at 101 Hyde St., a former post office, in 2015. The city approved a development project with 85 affordable housing units at 101 Hyde St., a former post office, in 2015. The building has been in the city's possession for nearly as long: Shorenstein Properties bought the site in 2016 and gave it to the city that year in a deal to fulfill its affordability requirements for a separate project.
Were it not for a last-minute reversal by President Trump, brokered in secret by a couple of billionaires and SF's mayor, San Francisco and Oakland could have easily descended into the same violent chaos, provoked by an ICE invasion, that we're seeing in Minneapolis. The Trump administration has, since Trump took office this second shameful time, been working their way down a list of enemy states and cities where federal agents have been sent in on a draconian mission

HellaFunny is taking over one of SF's premier cannabis lounges, Moe Greens, for a night of "Puff Puff Laugh." That's right... it's the only comedy show in San Francisco where you can (legally in California) get high during the show. You'll see a killer comedy show with a handpicked lineup of 4-5 comics who normally perform at SF Sketchfest, Cobb's Comedy Club, Punchline and Thrive City.
There's a particular way artists talk about San Francisco when the city has truly mattered to them-not as scenery, but as a place where something shifted. For Cate Le Bon, the Bay Area lives in that register, folded into memory, music, and a formative period that still resonates beneath the surface of the Welsh singer-songwriter's work. "I've spent a lot of time in San Francisco," she says, simply.
For a couple Friday nights in August and September of 2024, some 20,000 visitors descended on the west end of San Francisco for the Sunset Night Market - maybe the biggest, splashiest night market the city had ever seen, occupying a whopping seven blocks of Irving Street. There were lion dancers in full regalia. Lamb skewers and prehistoric-sized turkey legs served hot off the grill. Stinky tofu and durian eating contests. Martin Yan even made an appearance.
At some point, about a kilometer into the run, everything suddenly got wet. I was keeping an 11-minute pace as I plodded down the Embarcadero; Cupid's Span, that enormous bow and arrow sculpture, was visible ahead. I had just forced myself to swallow the last bite of my first Crunchwrap Supreme, and two more bounced threateningly in the waxy brown bag.
