Something is happening in the Un-American Apparel space at 988 Valencia.
Mission Mission agents took this shot at a distance as not to arouse suspicion. Applying CSI style zoom:
Blue Fig? Hmm.
Nothing on Google (though it certainly seems to be a popular restaurant/hooka name in Ohio). Lots of permit activity at 988 Valencia via SFGov that closed on 4/23, but no specifics other than “Retail Sales”.
