Traffic in the city is HORRIBLE!! It gets worse it seems every time I come back. This was taken at 2:30. A single car broke down in the middle lane of the eastbound Bay Bridge, which caused a ripple congestifuck that brought the entire downtown area into a gridlocked mess.
Anyway, something good came out of it- this pic of Harrison Street. \
It is pretty astonishing the amount of transformation and the way the neighborhood feels with all these new towers. I remember years ago getting on the Bay Bridge here which was then a pretty gritty low slung warehouse district with tons of traffic. Now it's an immense awe inspiring boulevard with tons of traffic. Seriously. How do residents of ORH even get home outside of the hours of 11am- 1pm?
