BART wasn’t running longer trains on the Richmond lines Saturday afternoon for the Cal game. The 4-car train I was on at about 2:45 (kickoff at 5:00) was PACKED. I’m glad I was only taking it from 12th Street.

Thanks for writing, Jeffrey, it’s great to hear the event was so fun! Unfortunately, I had to be cooped up during yesterday’s beautiful weather, but I fully intend to make the second one.

There’s so much space in our city when the cars aren’t around.
Exactly: when we stop and think about it, it’s amazing how much valuable square footage we’ve chosen to give for the largely exclusive use of cars. It’s nice to have events like Sunday Streets and Park(ing) Day to keep that fact in the public consciousness.

Sunday Streets was /awesome/! The waterfront was so beautiful, serene, and crowded all at the same time. There’s so much space in our city when the cars aren’t around. People were really enjoying themselves. I especially liked seeing the kids out riding their bicycles and running around.

“…will be closed to vehicular access”

Meaning, of course, open for the first time to human access!
