Hi friends,

This election day, San Franciscans will be voting for a number of local measures in addtion to the big national elections. Prop K is one of them and if passed would turn the Great Highway into a permenant park. This week, I wrote about why I think that's a good idea. (Election day in the US is November 5, in case you missed it.)

A divided two lane highway filled with people walking on it dressed in costumes. The road is crowded as far as you can see until the people disappear into fog.

Yes on K: Turn the Great Highway into a great park

I live in San Francisco and I am voting Yes on proposition K. Prop K would turn the Upper Great Highway into a permanent ocean-side park. The Great Highway is already closed to car traffic on weekends, which is how we know it's really lovely to have it as a park.

Thanks for reading and see you on the internet!
