Living with landslides and road closures: Big Sur businesses struggle to survive - San Francisco ...

BIG SUR, Monterey County — Standing alongside Highway 1, Colin Twohig pulled out a pack of American Spirits as he watched car after car zoom past Big Sur’s oldest resort. It was Memorial Day weekend, known throughout this iconic stretch of coastline as the start of tourist season. Yet, at 2:30 p.m. on that sunny Friday, the Big Sur River Inn’s parking lot remained mostly empty. “I’m stressed,” Twohig, the River Inn’s general manager, said between puffs of his cigarette. “We could really use a go…

Oakland 'Top Chef' restaurateur near breaking point after break-ins...

Nelson German was surveying the damage from the worst morning of his career when he asked himself: What did he learn when he saw the same burglars break into his Uptown Oakland restaurant twice in the space of two hours? After three weeks without a day off, German had thought he could finally sleep in, for once. Impossible. At 4:40 a.m., he awoke to an alert on his iPhone from his commercial-security company. There, on the screen, were two men in black masks ransacking the alaMar Dominican Kitch…

Tech workers leaving San Francisco set their sights on New York Cit...

Like many other Silicon Valley tech workers, Sanchit Gupta started to think about moving away during the COVID-19 pandemic. But instead of relocating to a more affordable place like, say, Austin, Texas, he dreamed about New York City. With world-famous nightlife, a robust dating scene and a thriving tech community, it seemed the ideal spot for someone like Gupta. In addition to being a single 20-something and self-described “night owl,” he was a product manager with some disposable income. “I al…

Trickle-down economics: Oakland Coliseum workers pay the price for ...

When Tony Evans learned from the local news that he would be out of a job, his first concern wasn’t for himself — it was for his granddaughter, Dy’mond Roberts. Long before Evans started pouring beer at Oakland Athletics home games a decade ago, he had made his 10 grandkids a promise: If you go to college, I’ll do whatever I can to help you graduate. Now, as the A’s plan to move to the Sacramento area next season, Roberts is a UC Santa Barbara freshman who depends on Evans for her room and boar…

Aramark warns A's Coliseum workers: Talk publicly and get fired - S...

The food and beverage concessionaire for the Oakland Coliseum warned workers that speaking publicly about company business may get them fired, delivering the message shortly after Oakland A’s officials said layoffs will precede the team’s move next season to the Sacramento area. The 99-word letter from global concession giant Aramark, obtained by the Chronicle, told workers that “it is against Aramark’s Business Conduct Policy to speak to the government, media, or press on behalf of the company,…

'A last resort for me': Valencia Street merchant launches hunger st...

Eiad Eltawil was rattling off the dozen or so businesses that closed on the Valencia Street corridor in recent months when he noticed a sheet of paper. There, next to a “FOR SALE” sign on a shuttered storefront near the corner of Valencia and 22nd Street, was a note to customers: “After 36 years of service, we have decided to close.” Eltawil shook his head. Unless something changes soon, Yasmin — the casual Mediterranean restaurant he owns at 799 Valencia St. — could be next. Eltawil, 41, is ju…

Most students at SF's Ida B Wells High School are chronically absen...

Two days a week, Vern Rustrian knocks on the doors of students who have given up on school. This might seem like a simple assignment. But at Ida B. Wells High School, few things are straightforward. As one of just two continuation high schools in San Francisco, it provides a last chance to students who are at risk of dropping out. With the highest chronic absenteeism rate in the district at almost 96%, Ida B. Wells faces huge challenges just to get teens in class. Therein lies why Rustrian has o…

SF mayoral candidate Daniel Lurie touts nonprofit experience - San ...

San Francisco mayoral candidate Daniel Lurie casts himself as the antidote to the city’s myriad challenges because of his work with the anti-poverty charity he founded nearly two decades ago. At Tipping Point Community, he said, he honed his leadership style and held nonprofits accountable. Lurie, a 47-year-old Levi Strauss heir with a network of wealthy supporters, has argued that he demanded and got results from organizations that received grants from Tipping Point to confront poverty, homeles…

Guerrilla S.F. pickleball players buck city crackdown in wealthy ne...

The pickleball courts at Presidio Wall playground, a stretch of green and blue asphalt in one of San Francisco’s toniest neighborhoods, certainly don’t look as if they would be the site of civil disobedience. But in the two weeks since the city’s Recreation and Park Department hung “Tennis Only” signs over two courts as its latest maneuver in a months-long duel over court space, that’s what has happened. As a form of protest, pickleball players have carried nets onto the forbidden courts when te…

Super Bowl sex trafficking stings arrest hundreds, but sometimes mi...

​​LAS VEGAS — Sunday afternoon, when the San Francisco 49ers try to win their first Super Bowl in 29 years, Maxine Doogan will be no different than many other longtime 49ers fans. Clad in red and gold, she will cheer her favorite team at a watch party in downtown San Francisco. But at some point during the game, Doogan knows she will reflect on all her fellow sex workers who were recently arrested in Las Vegas as part of law enforcement’s latest sting operation around the Super Bowl. Sex workers…

49ers QB Brock Purdy can trace his NFL success to flag-football roo...

LAS VEGAS — As Brock Purdy prepares to become the third-youngest quarterback to start a Super Bowl, Adam Neville often reflects on Purdy’s middle-school dominance. In fall 2012, as a seventh grader for a team called the Bulldogs outside Phoenix, he engineered a 21-point comeback to win the San Tan Youth Football League championship. Neville, the league’s longtime president, could tell by how quickly Purdy processed information that seven years of flag football had equipped Purdy well for the tac…
