Fri, 05 Dec 2014 17:38:47 +0000 http://www.missionmission.org/?p=57866#comment-104715 …some of these organizations are still around some with and some without a physical space. Intersection just cut back their programming but still exists as an incubator for new production companies and new projects. Z Space is in the Artaud building and opened a second space last year. Goat Hall still produces, I was stage manager for their production of Seven Deadly Pleasures last year at ACT’s Costume Shop (and the picture associated with their photo on the map is actually of 11th Hour Ensemble’s ‘Alice.’ which I stage managed at Theatre of Yugen’s NOHspace).

Gentrification is totally cool and it’s totally cool to raise the the rent prices for local small businesses by opening a bunch of cool shops and ‘art spaces’ but as soon as someone with some more money than you comes around the corner, gentrification is a terrible plague and it’s time to start a ‘class war’.

I remember the Mission, Lower Haight, and such back then. What this map doesn’t realize is that a lot of these places were not welcome by the hipsters of the early to mid 80s. The mid 90s Mission felt insanely gentrified to us at the time, little did we realize that the first tech boom would completely alter our definition of what gentrification was.

Im too old to care, but it just strikes me as funny that we’re now romanticizing the mid 90s. Oh well, I mean any time when poor weird kids could still move here is worth romanticizing I guess. Even Oakland will soon be off limits to them.

We do seem to love mourning here in SF, but I’d be curious to see a similar map of arts-related openings in the past 15 years.

Never heard of Komotion, seems interesting. Detroit has areas with this kind of feel, I wonder if other cities still do? Brooklyn maybe 10 years ago, Portland is too suburban, I guess it’s all gone now
