Dolores Park Works just published this map along with official details on the closures, which are mere weeks away. And some activity even starts this coming Monday:
Construction workers will be on-site between May 23rd and June 1st installing a new temporary access driveway into the park just south of the intersection of Dolores and 19th Street for use by service vehicles while the main driveway is closed for the playground construction project. This construction activity will result in the installation of a temporary safety barricade immediately around the area of work. Bauman Landscape Construction is expected to begin staging and performing pre-construction activities during the first week of June.
WTF? Where are movie nights going to be held then?
Speaking of which, what happened to Dolores Park Movie Night? At this time last year they were already in full swing.
Anyone know what’s up?

Film Night in the Park != Dolores Park Movie Night
Mr. Eric sir- Film Night in the Park is NOT Dolores Park Movie Night. Two separate operations, two different web-sites. MIssion Local has just talked to Alfonso Felder of Film NIght (the Saturday night guys) they have released a schedule and will be setting up away from the playground near FIxie Flats. We still need to hear from Sean at Dolores Park Movie Night (the Thursday Night crew).
Robert: That’s exactly what he said (in geek speak, != is the same as “does not equal”).
Who cares, I just want to know where they will be showing the movies — the place where people have traditionally sat seems to be closing.
Um.. what about dyke & trans march festivities happening there at the end of June?
Will they exhume and rebury the remains from the Jewish Cemetery on the north end of the Park?
The Jewish Cemetery was respectfully relocate in the late 19th century. By the mid 20th most of San Francisco’s dead had been moved outside the city.
The Dyke and Trans Marches are going off as planned, June 24, 25 Both still could use a hand with volunteers and fundraising.
Dolores Park Movie Night is three guys and a dream. They could have found something else to do. Send Sean a note and ask.
By the way… wasn’t there a stipulation in the transfer of the property to the city that it not be used for commercial purposes? Does the use of mobile food-selling trailers work around that, legally?
Oh good lord…
Do the employees from the food truck have to go around the park after they close and clean up all the trash that their customers leave on the ground?
Yeah, they do. Just like every liquor store within 3 blocks sends people to pick up beer cans.
