  • The stores, the shops, the bars and the restaurants have closed around Oracle Park due to street conditions ,even with big crowds of baseball fans 42,000 at every game , still not enough to make opening a business, a good idea in this part of the city
    With opening date approaching fast on April 5, 2024 San Francisco Giants fans are not going to have a place to pregame not even a place to eat. Sounds like the only option would be getting a sandwich from the Safeway A block away from the stadium
    Oracle Park is a baseball stadium in the SoMa district of San Francisco, California. Since 2000, it has served as the ballpark of Major League Baseball's San Francisco Giants. Previously named Pacific Bell Park, SBC Park, and AT&T Park, the stadium's current name was purchased by the Oracle Corporation in 2019

    I used to go to Giants games. Not anymore. Tickets are very expensive thanks to "dynamic pricing" so Dodgers vs Giants and games I want to see get jacked up. I drove once and got a parking ticket even though I parked a ways away and other cars on the street were covered in leaves and dust. I took the train once and the bums had tents all over. My out of town visitors were grossed out. I liked the new stadium but right after the game ended the ushers told me to leave when I just wanted to enjoy the place. Screw San Francisco. They are super accommodating to bums, drug addicts, and criminals and treat hard working businesses and patrons and tourists badly.

      The residential neighborhoods are said to be mostly ok. Theft and break-ins have definitely increased to serious levels and spilled over into the neighborhoods. Violent crime is still low. The local economy doesn’t seem terrible, but it’s not booming like in the 2010s. Bad laws and burdensome taxes continue to harm people, but that’s just California at this point.

      The MSM cuts and pastes those "interviews". They cherry-pick the people then coach them on responses so certain phrases are used and/or avoided. If someone answers too truthfully that clip isn't used. As a native I can guaruntee you that people here as a whole don't think it's "fine" ESPECIALLY not business owners and lifelong natives who have seen how far the deterioration has gone.

My last visitor wanted to go to fisherman’s wharf but I told them they had a good chance of their car getting a smash-and-grab, even if nothing is in their car, just because tourists are a prime target. They went to Monterey instead, thank goodness. At some point this has got to start hurting the SF economy. Only when the elitists get hit in the pocketbook will anything be done.

    Has anyone noticed that this ballpark has never had its own name? It has never had anything but some irksome corporate moniker. When are we going to get back to locals naming their own landmarks. Or, is this merely the corporatocracy showing us peons, that they own/control everything?

    I use to live at 3rd and Perry and shop at the Safeway (2005-2010). On the same strip was a Starbuck and I'd take my coffee to that little plaza area for coffee and a smoke. Never went to a game. But I walked for exercise to the park around and back down the bay to Pier 39 and take a bus back home.
    The studio apt.s at 3rd and Perry were $830.00 a month. Last I checked they were over $1200.00 a month and for what? I actually waved to incoming traffic over my morning coffee, my window was just a floor or two higher than the expressway.

    This wasn't something that happened overnight. It began roughly 20 years ago when San Francisco started catering to the tech companies with tax breaks under Mayor Ed Lee. When they left or their workers went remote, the city and the businesses left behind, had to pick up the pieces. SF had all their eggs in one basket. Also, these tech companies were playing the real estate game too. They would buy an entire building or build an entire building and sublease like half of it.
    Time magazine has a good article online that describes the "Twitter tax break of 2012". This is what started San Francisco down this path. Hopefully Mayor Breed learns from this.
