Fed up with illegal activity and loiterers, the community, Walgreens and Supervisor Rafael Mandelman came together to place plants outside a popular corner store in the Castro.
Allen Janz, whose dad lives around the corner, took notice of the new planters outside the Walgreens at 18th and Castro streets.
Walgreens provided the planters, SF Public Works paid for the soil and plants, and Mandelman invited the community to fill them over the weekend. "Like two days in a row, there's homeless right outside my flat and I should be maybe sympathetic of course, but I'm not really sympathetic. I'm just tired of this," said Geoff Wilson.
Skyler said he always maintains good sidewalk etiquette and often sees bad behavior outside the 24-hour store. Skyler said he hopes the planters will make the neighborhood, which is filled with small businesses and families, more welcoming.
