  • Improvements to Powell Street Station Are Included As Part of the San Francisco Redevelopment Agency's Mid-Market Plan. This H
    POWELL STREET PLANNING Improvements to Powell Street Station are included as part of the San Francisco Redevelopment Agency’s Mid-Market Plan. This has been enhanced by the recommended improvements to Hallidie Plaza that were identified in the 2004 charrette funded in part by the owners of the soon-to- open (2006) Bloomingdale’s at San Francisco Center. Planning is also underway to make best use of the station space, which was studied in the 2004 Capacity Plan and found to be constricted in key areas (near the BART Police facility, in the mezzanine corridor between the fare gate areas, etc.) which may be affected when and if Muni’s Central Subway is connected to BART at this station. The Muni Central Subway project is proposed to connect to Powell station and to the new Transbay Terminal Project. The Powell station was studied in 2004 to analyze the critical areas of platform capacity, vertical circulation (stairs/escalators) capacity, and fare gate capacity. DEVELOPMENT BART is negotiating special entrance agreements with Forest City Development for a Bloomingdale’s entrance and with Millennium Partners and San Francisco Redevelopment Agency to consider what will become of the “tunnel” space between the station and and Yerba Buena Center. Owners of the Flood Building are also working with BART staff to address the possibilities of sub-street connections to the station. The Four Seasons high-rise tower, containing 150 housing units, 100 long-term hotel suites and 250 hotel rooms, is directly adjacent to the station and opened in 2002. Construction is underway at the adjacent Mexican Museum and the Jewish Museum in Yerba Buena Center.

  • Children Bond with SJSU Parents Employees Fired
    SERVING SAN JOSE STATE UNIVERSITY SINCE 1934 SPARTANSPARTAN DAILYDAILY WWW.THESPARTANDAILY.COM VOLUME 122, NUMBER 53 FRIDAY, APRIL 23, 2004 Children bond with SJSU parents Employees fi red for taking photos of soldiers’ caskets Associated Press WASHINGTON — The Pentagon lost its tight control over the images of coffi ns returning from Iraq as about 350 such images were released under the Freedom of Information Act and a Seattle newspaper published a similar photo taken by a military contractor. After Dover Air Force Base, the main port for returning remains, released hundreds of government photos of the ceremonies, the Defense Department ordered Thursday that no more photographs be released. In addition, two employees for defense contractor Maytag Aircraft were fi red after the Pentagon complained about a photo of fl ag-draped caskets taken by one of them appeared in the Seattle Times. In March 2003, on the eve of war in Iraq, the Pentagon ordered an end to all media coverage of ceremonies for the returning remains of soldiers killed overseas. Although Dover already had such a policy, the Pentagon action enforced a military-wide ban on images of fl ag-draped caskets that dated from late 2000 but had not been followed. With few exceptions, the ban had remained in force until recent days. But last week, about 350 photos from Dover were released under a Freedom of Information Act request by Russ Kick, a First Amendment advocate who runs a Web site called the Memory Hole (www.thememoryhole.org). Dover had recommended that Kick’s request be denied, but offi cials at Air Mobility Command headquarters at Scott Air Force Base in Illinois authorized the release on appeal.

  • Introduction in Their Thirty Years Together, the Grateful Dead Forever
    Introduction In their thirty years together, the Grateful Dead forever altered the way in which popular music is performed, recorded, heard, marketed, and shared. Founding members Jerry Garcia, Bill Kreutzmann, Phil Lesh, Ron “Pigpen” McKernan, and Bob Weir took the name Grateful Dead in 1965, after incarnations as Mother McCree’s Uptown Jug Champions and The Warlocks. Despite significant changes in the band’s lineup, including the addition of Mickey Hart and the death of Ron McKernan, the band played together until Jerry Garcia’s death in 1995. From the beginning, the Grateful Dead distinguished themselves by their preference for live performance, musical and business creativity, and an unprecedented dedication to their fans. Working musicians rather than rock stars, the Dead developed a distinctive sound while performing as latter-day American troubadours, bringing audio precision to their live performances and the spontaneity of live performances to their studio work. Side-stepping the established rules of the recording industry, the Dead took control of the production and distribution of their music. With a similar business savvy, they introduced strategic marketing innovations that strengthened the bond with their fans. This exhibition, the first extensive presentation of materials from the Grateful Dead Archive housed at the University of California, Santa Cruz, testifies to the enduring impact of the Grateful Dead and provides a glimpse into the social upheavals and awakenings of the late twentieth century—a transformative period that profoundly shaped our present cultural landscape. Amalie R. Rothschild, Fillmore East Marquee, December 1969. Courtesy Amalie R. Rothschild Beginnings The Grateful Dead began their musical journey in the San Francisco Bay Area at a pivotal time in American history, when the sensibilities of the Beat generation coincided with the spirit of the burgeoning hippie movement.

  • The City Aroused: Sexual Politics and the Transformation of San Francisco’S Urban Landscape, 1943-1964
    Copyright by Damon John Scott 2008 The Dissertation Committee for Damon John Scott Certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: The City Aroused: Sexual Politics and the Transformation of San Francisco’s Urban Landscape, 1943-1964 Committee: Steven D. Hoelscher, Supervisor Paul C. Adams Lawrence M. Knopp, Jr. Elizabeth Mueller Leo E. Zonn The City Aroused: Sexual Politics and the Transformation of San Francisco’s Urban Landscape, 1943-1964 by Damon John Scott, B.A., M.A. Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin August 2008 Dedication For my folks Acknowledgements Before thanking the legion of mentors, colleagues, friends and family who have helped me along the way, I first want to “acknowledge” that I never really thought I would be writing these words—the last before I send them off to posterity. It’s not because I did not somewhere deep inside have the determination to finish, but because the things I want to understand are endless. How could I really gather enough bits and pieces to say something new about San Francisco? How could I interweave the well documented history of sexual politics in the city into a new historical geographic context? Would it really look any different? I am writing these words because, mercifully, this dissertation project ultimately does have an end point. That being said, I am comforted by the fact that there is still more to the story than I have been able to piece together here.
