  • the city banned private vehicles on Market Street as part of an ambitious effort to improve public safety and transform San Francisco's most important traffic artery into a ghost town , forcing businesses to leave and comercial property value to plummet, One by one as a domino effect, stores, banks, restaurants, hotels, coffee shops were forced to leave due to the lack of accessibility
    Streets are made for cars to have access to the businesses , therefore, removing the cars removes the accessibility to the businesses, safety is a concern on any street, but targeting market Street is targeting the HEART of the city
    A lot of the comments on my previous market Street video said that I picked the worst part from the UN Plaza at City Hall to Powell Street and that the part that was still thriving was from Powell to the Embarcadero where I start my walk for this video in the final chapter to the market Street saga , brace yourself for this video.

    This is so sad, When I lived in San Francisco in the late 1980s one of my favorite shops was a Rand McNally Map Store. It was on the south side of Market Street between Montgomery Street and the Embarcadero. It was the coolest store. I still have a pillow I bought with the map of the United States printed on it that was the same map my teachers used when I was in school. It's also shaped like the United States. I still have a globe I bought there too. The oceans are a light beige instead of blue, and because it was made in the 1980s it still has the old USSR. Hanging out in that store is one of the happier memories I have of the time I lived there.

      On Wednesday they were replacing the glass door. Someone had shattered it. Don't know if it was a gunshot or not.
      They closed down Stacey's bookstore next door to it and opened up one of those Amazon stores where there were no cash registers.

I can tell you, as bad as the street is with closed businesses, the commercial real estate high rises are suffering as much or MORE. 30, 40, 50 story buildings are half full of tenants or less. And the floors that are occupied are often just offices that have a token secretary or security guard on duty. Every room has the feel of having JUST had a bunch of people in it doing something important but upon hearing your approach they vanish into the ether. Its an empty rotting corpse with a facade that smells like hobo piss. And it used to be so goddamn beautiful and I was so proud and privileged to live here and now I'm ashamed and want to flee.

      One of the biggest catalysts for San Francisco's decline has been a rise in crime. Inventory shrink is bad around the country, per Walmart, Target, and Home Depot, but some businesses say it's no longer viable to stay in San Francisco specifically.
      Nearly two dozen stores have said they plan to pull up stakes and leave San Francisco as the crime issue remains unresolved. Some of these retailers include Old Navy, Banana Republic, Crate & Barrel, AmazonGo, Saks Off Fifth, Anthropologie and Office Depot. Walgreens has been chaining up some of its most stolen goods from heavily shoplifted stores to prevent theft from further cutting into its bottom line.

    I went to school at San Francisco Conservatory of Music in the 1990s and lived in dorms at Lone Mountain at USF. I later moved back in 1996 and lived in the Tenderloin at the Granada hotel. Never would I have thought this would happen to Market St. Hard to imagine ALL those jobs in banking, restaurants and retail are gone. ALL the ancillary services that those businesses needed provided jobs and income for people to pay their bills. There is a hidden agenda in effect by stopping the car traffic which was the final deathnail in that area. A previous commentor mentioned the "15 minute city" as their agenda. Yes, perhaps an income provided for a large group of participants to participate in trials of how such a sector of the city would operate is their agenda. That's so sad to see this.

      ​@@springfauna1465 The elites plan for another reset of the world and implement their Agenda 2030 which states: "These are universal goals and targets which involve the entire world, developed and developing countries alike, etc." You may want to look into it further. Klaus Schwab, founder of World Economic Forum said "You will own nothing and be happy." The reset will include 15 minutes cities. These cities should be able to fulfill “key aspects of life” within a 15 minute walk or cycle from their home." These barren cities like SF, Colorado, etc. is the beginning of their plans. They want citizens to be contained in a radius of 15 minutes i.e. population control/depopulation, etc. It's not going to be a pretty sight. It's a reset, New World Order coming. And I am looking up for the return of Jesus Christ. He's the only one who can clean up this world mess and establish His just and true Kingdom.
