    The View from Room 200: Dianne Feinstein and The City’s darkest hour (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    The mayor at the center of this conversation wasn’t in the room for it. Dianne Feinstein died in 2023, which means that to find out what she made of San Francisco — the city she inherited in blood in 1978 and handed off, remade, 10 years later — is to ask the people who spent their careers in her orbit. “This isn’t about what we thought about Dianne,” Jim Wunderman said, setting the terms. “This is about what Dianne thought about San Francisco. If she was here, what would she say?â

    A Word on the Street exclusive: Nick Bosa, Tony Gemignani team up for limited-edition The Boss pizza (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The pizza Tony Gemignani and Nick Bosa made together starts in Chicago. Bosa, the star defensive end for the San Francisco 49ers, is a great-grandson of Tony Accardo — the Chicago Outfit boss who once served as Al Capone’s bodyguard and ran the city’s mob for decades. Gemignani —  San Francisco’s own 13-time World Pizza Champion — leaned right into it. “I heard he loved fennel, and I said, ‘Let me run with something,’” he said. Where they landed “totally goes down the Chi

    Word on the Street: The view from Room 200 (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    San Franciscans love to argue about The City. We are fluent in our own crises — the rents, the empty storefronts downtown, the Great Highway is a park, and then it’s not, but maybe it is. Everything is so back, we have reached a golden age of prosperity. All of this is true and none of it. But we argue in the present tense, as if the San Francisco we’re fighting over was immaculately concepted without a past, conjured whole sometime around 2020. There are probably a few ways to go about an

    Train comes home to the Haight (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Haight Street was in full-blown block-party mode on Thursday thanks to a free concert thrown by Train, which got its start in San Francisco over 30 years ago. The band’s 12th album, “Mad Dog in the Fog,” dropped Friday, and it came to town to celebrate. Train is in the middle of its Drops of Jupiter: 25 Years in the Atmosphere tour — marking 25 years since the debut of one of the songs that made the band famous — with Barenaked Ladies and singer-songwriter Matt Nathanson along for th

    Word on the Street: Vallejo's LaRussell brings his backyard ethos to Stern Grove closeout weekend (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Over the weekend, Stern Grove wrapped its 89th free season with an amphitheater packed beyond the tree line for Public Enemy on Saturday (with Al Green on deck for Sunday). The man handling the opening slot was a Vallejo rapper who’s made a whole philosophy out of the same idea as the festival: Everyone should be able to join, and the Bay Area should be proud. LaRussell built his name by throwing offer-based shows in his own backyard, repping Bay pride with anthems such as “I’m From The Ba
