This place is a nuisance already. There are already vehicles (usually large SUV's) who park in the crosswalks, double park and corner park. DPW could open a branch office here and make tons of money!!
There's going to be a self-service restaurant there? There's definitely not enough room for a Fresh Choice in that spot. Plus, the parking will be a MESS.
I totally agree with the parking being a problem. I am going to throw out the idea that all businesses close down in order to solve this problem.

It's unfair to characterize the double-parked cars on this stretch of the street as a problem caused by Luv a Java. I've seen double-parked cars there for school pickup and dropoff, church pickup and dropoff and Pasta Gina a few doors down.
If I were Luv a Java, though, I'd have a very love/hate relationship with the parochial school kids who flood the place in the early afternoon!
All those parochial school kids in their little uniforms and collared shirts and backpacks make me sick. So pious. It's like they think they're all altar boys with their coffee.
^^ Wrong cafe.
Universal problem, though, and adding sandwiches to the menu won't change that intersection.
Oh, you're right. Sandwiches are the worst! talk about traffic inducing.
So, in conclusion, ban businesses, sandwiches and children, both christian and non christian. However, lets keep Tuggys open. This will help Noe Valley become the cities premiere parking neighborhood.

Typical Cranky Noe Neighbor is on to something. Now that Tuggy's is shutting down and the Ladybug place is gone, all of the Luv A Java customers can park on 24th! Perfect remedy.
Oh wait, the Cookie Truck takes up all the parking spaces. The idea won't work.
By the way, that Cookie Truck is starting to look more like the brothel in Beetlejuice. See for yourself: http://tinyurl.com/6oejyes
Tear down Tuggey's and put in a parking lot!
What a stupid idea. Putting in a parking lot would create such a traffic jam attracting more cars. Plus, what about all the parking spots that have been here for years? I dont think its fair to them, all of a sudden no one is parking there, everyone goes straight to park in the lot.

If you take out Tuggys, all you're going to be doing is paving paradise to put up a parking lot.
What about more parklets? You can park small cars in those right?
Stroller parking! Do it for the children.
Murph is still touchy about losing the bid to actually close down Noe St. to make it into his stroller parking lot.
Haha. Noe Valley stroller jokes are so fresh and new. Can't wait til the next Noe Valley dog zinger! Love it!
