So there weren't as many vacancies during the recession of the early 80's, for example, simply because there weren't that many storefronts to begin with. <br /><br />There's been quite bit of expansion and up-scaling in the past 30 years, and a contraction at some point was, in retrospect, inevitable. You can be held up high by various flavors of yuppiedom (I guess the latest is googledom) only for so long. <br /><br />Having said that, I think (if the landlords decide to cooperate with more reasonable rents), there are some good opportunities for people to move in with businesses that really cater to the locals (family-friendly, upscale but not snob-scale, friendly service, etc.). After all, it's not like people have been leaving Noe Valley in droves. There are as many if not more people as ever, and they still have the same appetites for goods and services.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008050911800805999.post-89954617945948008382009-11-08T12:41:10.082-08:002009-11-08T12:41:10.082-08:00I've been here 20 hears and never seen so many...I've been here 20 hears and never seen so many vacancies.<br />Also, I LOVE this summary.

And while I offer you, Dear...I like the summary. <br /><br />And while I offer you, Dear Anon, whole-hearted congratulations on reading the entire Noe Valley Voice (all the ads--really? did you really read it ALL?) in just under an hour, I wonder why you feel so offended by the summary here? Do you likewise feel offended by movie summaries in the review section of the Chronicle? Well, ok. Maybe the Chronicle is just offensive in general, but you get my drift.<br /><br />And re: Nelson--I don't myself know, having only been here 5 or so years. I think it's probably the worst--or at least was pre-whole foods--that I've seen it. But, on the other hand, in some ways it was worse (for me personally) when the library was shut.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02464164620323084636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008050911800805999.post-55600931422593492282009-11-08T07:58:52.588-08:002009-11-08T07:58:52.588-08:00The summary of all the closed businesses on 24th w...The summary of all the closed businesses on 24th was interesting. I've only lived in Noe Valley a couple of years, can someone give me some perspective? When was the last time so many storefronts were empty and in transition?<br /><br />And Anonymous #1? Give it a rest. You don't have to read this blog. This blog is not stopping anyone from reading the Noe Valley Voice. And this blog regularly originates stories, it doesn't just cull stories from elsewhere.Nelsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13183364513305941382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6008050911800805999.post-68571420588373881082009-11-07T19:41:44.617-08:002009-11-07T19:41:44.617-08:00Thanks NVSF for letting us know that the new Voice...Thanks NVSF for letting us know that the new Voice is out....we went right down to Good News on <br />24th Street to get our copy so we can read it ourselves.

Maybe you guys (whoever you are) could come up with something other than the news you cull from your computer links. Got any original items????Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
