Hooray, dedicated pedestrian walkway! One way northbound driveway, so no more access to 29th downhill from the parking lot which will make that intersection less of a clusterfuck.  Great improvents all around — as noted by our friends at da noe valley *buzz* the parking lot was “a labyrinth of death and chaos + pigeons“.

Now if the Mission Safeway could only figure out how to get more than three cashiers during the evening shopping rush hour. Typical lines: looking left towards the deli:
