There is a lot for a lot of folks and community. For us, it started back in 1966 and it was a diner and where our ancestors gathered to connect. I think coffee and food is the very fabric of our community as well as we take care of each other. To have a popup in the tenderloin gives it so much meaning. We are always creating impactful meaning of the lives of the people, and once we create a space and focus on the most marginalized, you really include a space for everyone. Coffee is so cultural for many communities and we have coffee of maria inspired by my grandmother from mexico. I have many many memories of sharing coffee with her late at night. So we carry that into everything we do. Currently we are on a journey that is going to open up the first brick and mortar in San Francisco specifically in the tenderloin. We want to stay true to our ancestors in the tenderloin. So we are getting ready for that and getting ready for celebrating our anniversary. It has been well supported and well talked about in our community. Thats why we are pushing it so much because thats how we started. Very active community members. They give back to the community. Support trends and give back and give a safe space for all. We also want to let folks know that if they want to be in a safe space, we have a pay it Forward Program that allows 20 to get some funds for someone in need can come and get a cup of coffee, pastry and feel welcomed in our community. To be among our community, you are always welcome here. You dont have to buy anything or get anything, just be here and express yourself and be your authentic self and we will always take care of you. So im linda im part owner and manager of the paper tree in jeopardy an town. Paper tree opened by my parent in 1968. So we other second oldest business in jap an town. At 55 years this year. We have beautiful papers from japan, thailand, italy, korea and the biggest selection of orgami. I do it because of my grand father and he wrote to the first english in it in the early 50s. He had an import business to import japanese goods and of course we had our line of paper. To go with the books he produced. It is something i have been doing since i was 5 and im happy to say im a designer now and of course having paper tree. It is grit. During the pandemic i wanted do something to make a statement to help combat the asian hate that was prevalent at that time. And so i put a call out to have a thousand hearts. This is a spin on the tradition of holding 1,000 cranes when you have a wish. Well, a thousand cranes does not make a statement enough why not change it and a call for a thousand hearts . I created a website dedicated to the project. A video and fold heart instructions. People sent them in the first mont was 1,000 hearts. They kept coming in. And the next goal was 7, 698, which was the total number of case of reported hate by the ap i website. Those were the reported case of hate. There are more not reported. That became the new goal. We achieved 2 months later. The hearts were coming in it it is a big project, we have it part of our store. Anyone can come and fold an easy heart. Keeping that part of the japanese tradition of this in that way here in japantown is pretty special. Its great. Youre watching San Francisco rising with chris manors. Todays special guest is mary chu. Hi. Im chris manors, and youre rising on San Francisco rising. The show thats focused on rebuilding, reimagining, and restarting our city. Our guest today is mary chu, and shes here to talk with us about art and the San Francisco art commission. Well come, miss chu. Thanks for having me. Its great to have you. Lets talk about art in the city and how art installations are funded. The Arts Committee was funded in 1932 and support civic review, design investments and art galleries. Projects we have are funded by the citys art enrichment ordinance which provides 2 of Construction Costs for public art. So art is tied to construction. Theres been a great deal in the southwest of the city. Can you talk about some of the projects there . Sure. Our city has some exciting projected in the bayviewhunters point coming up. One artist created a photo collage. In the picture pavilion, one artist formed a collage of her oneyear residency coming together with residents, and anchoring the new center is a landmark bronze sculpture, inspired by traditional ivory coast currency which the artists significantly enlarges to mark that its a predominantly African American community in bayview hunters point. Are there any art installations around town that uses light as a medium . Yes. The first is on van ness between ofarrell and geary. Its funded with the m. T. A. S van ness geary street project. Another project is for the central subway. It is one of ten artworks commissioned for the new line. Its over 650 feet long, consists of 550 l. E. D. Panels between the powell street station and the union street station. Its called lucy in the sky, and the lights are patterned with unique sequences so that commuters can experience a unique pattern each time they pass through. Perfect. What about the early day sculpture that was removed from the civic center . This is a question that cities have been grappling with nationwide. Following the removal of early days in 2018, there was a toppling of statues in Golden Gate Park as well as the removal of the Christopher Columbus statue. We are partnering with the Parks Department as well as the community to engage with the public to develop guidelines to evaluate the existing monuments and memorials in the civic arts collection and evaluate the removal of a monument or statue but also installing new ones. Finally, it seems like the weather might be nice this weekend. If i fancy taking a walk and seeing some outdoor art, where would you suggest i go . Well, i would suggest the embarcadero. This work was commissioned with funds from the fire station 35. This suggests the bow of a boat and the glass panel surrounding the structure depict the history of fireboats in the bay area. And where can i go from there . Then, i would walk up to the Justin Herman plaza to check out the work of the art vendors. Then check out the monuments like the mechanics monument. Also, be sure to check out the poster series, installed in bus kiosks along Market Street, which features four artists each year. Well, thank you. I appreciate you coming on the show, miss chu. Thank you for your time today. Thank you, chris. Thats it for this episode. Well be back with another show shortly. For San Francisco t. V. , im chris manors. Thanks for watching. A century ago, building a dam in the high country of the sierra to bring a supply of fresh water to the San Francisco bay area was a monumental undertaking. Mayor sunny jim rafh turned to michael to mastermind the project. Michael was a force of nature. Air fwant in some ways but also a mans man. He supper advised the construction and it was the greatest engineering seats in the United States. The remow location of dam and reservoir made getting to the site a challenge. They had to get access to the slopes of the Sierra Nevada so they her to build a railroad to get Construction Equipment and materials into the site. They had to generate power so they built another reservoir to generate power and they did a remarkable amount of work with much less sophisticated equipment than what we have today. Concrete for the dam was processed at a plant just upstream from the construction site, using sand and rock from the valley. Nearly 400,000 yards of cubic concrete were poured around the clock. Oshansee was a detailed oriented guy. He was having his man dig down the bedrock and they would dig and dig and pull, you know, out debris and they come and say, okay, weve gotten down. Were down far enough. We need to personally look at it and say, no, dig deeper. In may 1923, the dam was completed and named first chief engineer and behind it, an 8mile chef of the Hetch Hetchy Valley was flooded and holding back 115 billion gallons in the new reservoir. It would take another 11 years to finish the system and bring that water across california to the San Francisco bay area. This was the moment. It was made pososososososososososososos in meeting will come it orders. Welcome to the monday, september 11 meeting of rowels of the San Francisco board of supervisors.
