Back in the neighborhood
President Obama heads to his helicopter this morning at Crissy Field.

PRESIDENT OBAMA returned to the neighborhood yet again last night for dinner with deep-pocketed supporters at the Getty Mansion. He was greeted in San Francisco style by a raucous crowd of protesters opposing the Keystone pipeline, then introduced by the Gettys’ down-the-block neighbor, House minority leader Nancy Pelosi. Here’s the pool report on the event.

This morning Obama boarded Marine One down the hill at Crissy Field and headed to Silicon Valley.

    Wonderful piece. I remember when the jazz clubs on Fillmore stayed open past two — this brought it all back. Thank you for keeping the memory of the neighborhood alive.

    We've lived on Pine near Steiner for thirty-one years and it still surprises us how much this paper notices. Please keep going.

    A small correction — the mochi shop on Post opened in 1982, not 1985. My grandfather was there for the ribbon cutting. Love the coverage otherwise.
