Mission Mission

A couple of things going on here.

I noticed these new decorative engraved sidewalk blocks on 16th and Valencia a couple of days ago and I was wondering how they were done. Turned out to be less high-tech than I thought: grinding by hand with an orbital sander.

Check ‘em out before they are covered in gum stains.

You should throw your trash in the trash can, for sure. But if you happen to have some gum that you weren’t wanting, I know a spot.

Capp Street, natch.

Also, this is the urban fairy circle, right?

They’re FINALLY paving the sidewalk on Valencia today!!!!  I could hardly contain myself when I saw it.

Valencia sidewalks being put in!  Now’s the time to trace your initials into the cement.
