NVV July/August 2016: We Read It So You Don't Have To

The Noe Valley Voice is published ten times a year and has been a neighborhood fixture since 1977. Here are notable highlights from the latest issue. Links are to stories we've covered here on NVSF or other resources. Follow the NVV link at the bottom for full articles and all the ads.

July/August 2016

Front Page: A special issue featuring lots of photos from the 70s to the present (including a stroller mom on the cover).

Letters: A letter from a neighbor who dislikes the idea that Audrey Cooper of the Chronicle thinks that not having any straight men on the masthead makes the paper diverse; the owner of VOILA says thank you for the profile last issue; a Noe Valleyeon writes from Molyvos; and an open letter from The SF Homeless Project about how to curb homelessness in San Francisco.

Features: A heartwarming tale of Charlie the Therapy Cat from the ASPCA.

Cost of Living in Noe: Home sales are cooling (slightly) with the average home selling for $2.1 million (vs. $2.4 million last year).

Store Trek: VIP Scrub Club, 1734 Church Street at Day

Rumors and Tidbits: No rumors this month and The Noe Valley Voice will be on hiatus until September.
