A new cannabis venture has its eye on the storefront at Oak and Divisadero, with a community Zoom meeting set for tomorrow night.

The city's Office of Cannabis this week approved the application filed earlier this summer for FGW Haight to operate a cannabis dispensary at 768 Stanyan Street, currently a residential garage on a quiet block near Kezar Pub and facing Golden Gate Park.

The new dispensary, the first in the Sunset and the second location for the Barbary Coast collective, offers a full range of products and online delivery.

After 43 years in business, the family-owned Upper Haight mainstay Haight Ashbury T-Shirts is closing permanently at the end of the year, citing the economic pressures of a pandemic that's killed virtually all tourist traffic to the neighborhood.

The Upper Haight is hiring, and today could be your lucky day.

Wade Joffrion and Greg Price's Corona Heights "storybook house," the 1917 brick-clad cottage at 45 Upper Terrace, is regularly the most-decorated house in the neighborhood and a seasonal highlight for passersby at Christmas, Valentine's Day, Easter, and Halloween — and this year's display is worth a detour.

Tonight from 6 to 8 p.m., developers of the 100% affordable housing project slated for construction at 730 Stanyan Street will host a third community meeting for area residents, to answer questions, reveal further information about potential site design, and solicit feedback.

The project, now in the earliest stages of planning, is slated for a former funeral home at Geary and 6th Avenue in the Richmond.

Construction will break ground next month on Public Works' 27-month, multiagency reconstruction of 19th Avenue in the Sunset. And you can bet it's going to make for some extra traffic.

Today is the last day in business for Fey Chao's sandwich shop, after serving the Lower Haight since 1999.

Closed to cars to promote shelter-in-place recreation, Twin Peaks is now opening to them again. Some neighbors aren't happy about it.

The two museums round out the array of Golden Gate Park institutions finally reopened with special COVID-19 safety accommodations.

This weekend saw the installation of a series of new murals around the Haight and Fillmore intersection.

A "for sale" sign on the Eagle is causing alarm about the potential future of the bar, a cornerstone of SF's gay leather scene.

Two people were hospitalized earlier this morning after being found unconscious in a car on Haight Street.

The program, administered by the SF District Attorney's office, will reimburse merchants up to $1,000 for replacing broken windows.

One driver flipped their car, while the other driver collided with a light pole in front of the Oak Gourmet corner store.

Investigators are still seeking the source of the fuel leak in the heart of Fisherman's Wharf, which is home to sea lions and other marine life.

Admission to both museums will be free for their first two weeks of resumed operation.

This week's business brief is full of causes for celebration, including some reopenings, added service and an expansion.

With improvements and plantings complete, Rec & Park reopened the Stanyan entrance to Golden Gate Park to the public this month.

The 34-year-old print shop, owned by an immigrant family from Hong Kong, was destroyed in last week's fire.

With September's planned event a no-go, organizers are shifting to a digital offering that promotes musicians, vendors and SoMa nightlife.

Three of the city's most prominent museums are readying to reopen, with one returning next week.

In a first-of-its-kind program, the city plans to open the field to kids three days a week, while keeping its playgrounds closed.
