END OF THE YEAR, END OF THE BLOG

 

This is my last blog.

The reason is simple: I'm just not feeling it any moer. I enjoyed making My Changing Neighborhood and I hope whoever's been reading has enjoyed it too.

Happy new year and happy trails.

MURAL AT VAN NESS AND MARKET

This arresting mural was created in 2015 by three muralists: Caratoes, Laurent YS and Tati Suave. It's painted on the back wall 

of the oddly-shaped building on the corner of Van Ness and Market.

NEIGHBORHOOD OPENINGS – CROISSANTERIE/LE MARAIS BAKERY (#12 in a series)

A new bakery and bistro, Croissanterie, has opened at 1138 Sutter Street between Larkin andP Polk.

It is owned by Le Marais Bakery. According to their website:

       "We are looking forward to the year ahead – for the past five         years, we have been creating hundreds of pastries every day out of 300 square feet, and finally we will be able to move into a commissary kitchen in the Polk Gulch neighborhood. We will open the commissary to customers in 2018, so you can come in and see how we make our croissants and pastries by hand every day."


The bistro is open from 9:00 a.m - 3:00 p.m. daily while the bakery is open from 7:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m. daily.
