I remember the grand Fox theatre on Market street, and all the fantastic restaurants on fisherman's wharf. My grandparents use to take me and my brother to fisherman's wharf every Friday night. Had my 1st dungeness crab Louie salad at Pompei's Grotto in the 60's which started my love for great food. Ocean beach was still a hot spot with the Cliff House and Playland at the beach and of course the SF zoo. So many great places gone now.

    One of my last jobs was delivering to various Dispensaries in the SF area. The owner wanted me to carry an expensive looking bag that had everything you needed for College. Told him that I'd get robbed for it in SF, he said it'd be fine the business needed to look better. I never once used it in my deliveries, a clipboard sufficed. I was NOT willing to get killed over a few hundred of weed.

    I used to visit Fishermans wharf as a kid. Back then the worst thing that would happen is the bushman would scare you and you'd give him some money. I remember the first time I visited on my own as an adult. Went there to do some photography. I walked up out of the Market street bart station and after about half a block of walking I came across a confrontation where a homeless man was threatening to hit an elderly black security guard with his skate board. Thankfully they both backed off cause a crowd had gathered. Then after that, homeless people all around yelling and cussing at people and being generally aggressive shitheads. No police, around to do anything about it. That was almost 10 years ago. Not at all surprising that no one wants to be there anymore.

      Nope. The downfall began when California started electing radical leftist. Dianne Feinstein, Nany Pelosi, Newsom and so many more. Once California started the total tolerance of mob mentality during the Berkley riots in the 60's and 70's (what most California's believe to be the best era(also known as the hippie generation) the downfall was set in motion. President Reagan said it best, "It all first began when some of you who know better and are old enough to know better, let young people think they had the right to chose what laws they would obey as long as they were doing it in the name of social protest".. SF Could make the comeback of world history, but California's fate has already been sealed.

There is still great food there, but it's proportional to the amount of people the area sees. There are a myriad of factors at play in this economy and the city is easily getting by, but it is pretty empty.

      the previous owners paid!! The new owners will NOT need to bring in as much money as the previous businesses did, to make the buildings
