As soon as this year's Pride festivities wrapped up, construction began on the long-delayed new glass elevator at Castro Muni Station and Harvey Milk Plaza (Market and Castro streets).

The Castro's public bathroom at the intersection of Market, Castro, and 17th streets has returned to operating 24/7 after a request from a local neighborhood group.

Construction on the final phase of the Upper Market Street Safety Project is set to begin Thursday, July 1. The project aims to increase safety and comfort for pedestrians, cyclists, and drivers alike on Upper Market Street between Octavia Boulevard and Castro Street.
