San franciscos delores park starts closing down today. Its not good news for people who love that pardon me. Chase cane joining us now from San Francisco on what looks to be a gorgeous day, chase. Peggy, i dont think it could be any perfect. On a weekend like the one were supposed to have this weekend, up wards of 20,000 people could come to the park. It is a decent size, but its not that big. While a lot of people dont like that part of it, one thing they really like is that the park will get new bathrooms. By the end of tomorrow, the fences will be up and half of delores park will be closed for seven months. After that, the second half gets closed for seven more months. It will be hard on the people. Have you been here on the weekends . You cant even find a blade of grass. It is a wonderful park, particularly now. Carolyn has lived near by, and cant imagine the 10,000 weekly visitors into half of the park. People dont clean up the trash, and thats sad, and there is maintenance workers making it nice every day. Now it will be a smaller spot. Are they going to be able to keep up with that . Whatever the inconvenience, the city believes its worth it to upgrade irrigation, lighting, and basically everything in delores park which has not had a major upgrade in more than a century. Frequent visitors wonder if its worth it. I hope they can respect it after its being remodelled. I think it is fine the way it is. It will also be getting new tennis courts, basketball courts, new pathways, so it will look relatively different, but they say it will be the same park that everyone has come to love. Its the timing that everybody is upset about because it is likely going to be so nice this weekend. And there will be a lot between now and may 15th when it is supposed to be reopened. Before we let you go, im sure it will be gorgeous when youre done, but the neighbors say its their one spot of respite, how busy is it now in the middle of a workday .
