Five New Sidewalk Plaques Installed

Just in time for Up Your Alley (but not in the fair’s footprint), five more sidewalk plaques were installed by San Francisco Department of Public Works as part of the Folsom Streetscape Project. The plaques commemorate historic locations at 890, 1082, 1127, 1129, and 1190 (now home of Cat Club SF) Folsom Street.
