The parking lot next to City College of SF, formerly the Balboa Reservoir, has been the target of developers for decades. Apparently it is finally going to be re-paved, with a housing development.
"What does this have to do with Motorcycles?" you may ask. For many years this lot has been used by the Motorcycle Safety Foundation and other riding schools.
On a personal note, I have been using this lot for unmitigated wheelies for at least 25 years. I've been questioned a few times over the years by the City College Police (Woo hoo, hunky guys with Glock 19s) about the wheelie thing. One even threatened to write me a ticket, then admitted he only had a citation pad for writing parking infractions.
But seriously, with so many people supposedly leaving the Bay Area and SF in particular, why are they building more housing? Wouldn't it make sense to build an underground parking lot with a nice Green Park on top? A place where CCSF students could park their cars/bikes/motos or take a walk with their GF or BF, or even walk their dogs. No city ever has enough parking or green space, or a place for Geezers who like to tear up parking lots.
