After almost 20 years, I still don’t get bored walking around my neighborhood. Where ever I look – at the sidewalk, buildings or towards the sky – there is always something different, something interesting, something new. One of my favorite things about San Francisco, and a topic that I keep returning to, is the way residents personalize public space – creating a little piece of individuality in a concrete jungle. So, while I work on a post about biking around my favorite cities, I thought I’d share some of my favorite views with you….
