This sight always makes me feel pretty good. Nicely captured by juicyrai. Definitely do click to enlarge.

LOL at first comment on Flickr page: “Just wish they could dump the chain link fence for something a bit more regal. Chain link fencing isn’t very welcoming.”
For serious, BART! Who you gotta blow to maybe get some western red cedar fencing up in this bitch? I CANNOT COME HOME TO THIS CHAINLINK BULLSHIT OKAY
I love it when that escalator’s working.
when i moved to SF i always got a warm feeling going in & out of the 16th street station. the subway aspect was a little piece of home…
bart trains were carpeted, and the little ‘beep beep’ when they pull into the station….kinda quaint & homey. thoth would play the violin and dance…
and the brontosauruses on mission street were kinda cool too.
Dude, what fucker displaced the brontosauruses?
well, i WANT to say “taxidermy mice killed them”, but i’m over that shit now.
let’s say they kinda died out over time.
still a few of us dinosaurs left though…

[...] I still want my infill BART station at 30th though — La Lengua’s easily worth half a billion of stimulus funds! PDFs on BART’s planning website (part B has all the construction porn). Bored tunnel, not cut-and-cover (like the rest of Mission was done), estimated 3.5 years of construction time, with just 11 months of traffic distruption, and a huge hole in the Safeway parking lot and Valencia/29th to get the dirt out and cement in. All for beautiful entrances at 29th and 30th, and a nice new building for El Patio! It could be our Carlo’s, where commuters are welcome… [...]
