If you noticed an over abundance of bikers on the street this morning, you weren’t hallucinating. Today is the 18th Annual ‘Bike to Work Day’, which means that throughout the entire Bay Area, everyone will be celebrating the two wheel commute.

Rumor Has It…

Live SoMa — Mon, 07 May 2012 08:46:52 PDT

Yet another bar has lined up at the former location of the Line Up (398 Seventh St.) Restaurant and Bar. Those of you who live around there know that this has not been a very easy location to maintain a business. It’s right next to a busy Southbound Interstate 80 on-ramp, the San Francisco Hall [...]

A New, Exciting Look At The Bay Lights (on the Bay Bridge) [Video]

Live SoMa — Fri, 04 May 2012 13:02:36 PDT

As some of you might know, I have been spending a lot of time with the folks who are working on The Bay Lights Fine Art installation (by International Artist, Leo Villreal) that will install 25,000 LED lights along the Western Span of the Bay Bridge, hopefully, by the end of 2012.

1058 Hoagie Aspires To Give You That Game Time Fix…

Live SoMa — Thu, 03 May 2012 12:02:55 PDT

This should make those often frustrating Giants night games a little less torturous. From the crazy culinary minds that brought you Deli Board (1058 Folsom St.) comes an evening pop-up hoagie delivery and take out service – for (mostly) SOMA-only customers. Eat that, rest of San Francisco! No pun intended. 1058 Hoagie (corner of Russ and Folsom) [...]

Sixth Street Substation Moving Forward… A Small Step Forward!

Live SoMa — Thu, 03 May 2012 10:57:02 PDT

In case you haven’t heard, the Board of Supervisors Budget and Finance Committee has approved $775,000 in funding to (finally) build the much needed Sixth Street Police Substation, which has been sitting empty (and providing short term shelter as pictured above) for nearly a year.

Bluxome Winery Continues To Host Some Kick Ass Events…

Live SoMa — Thu, 03 May 2012 10:15:51 PDT

Last night’s Giants game was a disappointment (not to mention freezing cold). This afternoon’s will likely be postponed due to a pretty nasty 8 hour storm that is approaching around the time of the first pitch. But why stand around getting wet when you can sneak down Bluxome Street, far removed from the bridge and [...]

Moya Ethiopian Cafe Has Officially Returned! [Video]

Live SoMa — Thu, 19 Apr 2012 10:18:42 PDT

I can’t believe how much my Pro Bono Neighborhood coverage has been slacking of recent. It’s not for lack of developments, or even lack of interest on my part, I can assure you. I have just had way too much going on, and I’ve been forced to put LiveSOMA on the back burner a bit. [...]

In the meantime, I wanted to touch on this Community Meeting about Public Safety in South of Market, co-hosted by Supervisor Jane Kim and SFPD Southern Station Captain Charlie Orkes. [...]
