Those who recognize Mayor George Moscone's name may think of him as the career politician who was assassinated along with Harvey Milk, but there was much more to this influential and fascinating man's story. He was a trailblazing progressive and powerful state legislator who was instrumental in passing legislation on issues ranging from LGBT rights to funding for school lunches. Moscone's 1975 campaign for mayor was historically significant because it was the first time a major race was won by a candidate who campaigned aggressively for expanding civil rights for both African Americans and LGBT people. He won his campaign for mayor chiefly because of huge support from those two constituencies. Moscone was also a very colorful character who, in addition to being a successful politician, was a charming and charismatic bon vivant who was deeply embedded in the fabric and culture of San Francisco. He grew up the only son of a single mother in Cow Hollow when it was a working class, largely Italian American neighborhood, and he became the kind of politician who knew bartenders, playground attendants, small business owners, and neighborhood activists in every corner of the city. Moscone's life and the history of San Francisco during the middle half of the twentieth century are deeply intertwined.  Through illustrating the life of Moscone, author Lincoln A. Mitchell explores how today's San Francisco came into being. Moscone--through his work in the State Senate, victory in the very divisive 1975 mayor's race, and brief tenure as mayor--was a key figure in the city's evolution. The politics surrounding Moscone's election as mayor, governance of the city, and tragic death are still relevant issues. Moscone was a groundbreaking politician whose life was cut short, but his influence on San Francisco can still be felt today. Learn more about your ad choices.

Residents in San Francisco's Marina and Cow Hollow neighborhoods can breathe a sigh of relief. After much push back, the city's Municipal Transportation Agency announced it will not move forward with a plan to replace free two-hour visitor parking with paid parking.

Among the many young girls who arrived in San Francisco in 1868, was one 11-year-old from Shanghai. After five months in Chinatown, she was taken in by Ladies' Protection and Relief Society on Franklin Street, where she was given the name Mary. The following year, Chew Diep arrived from Taishan. In 1875, he met Mary while he delivered milk for the Sterling family. They married on November 16, and before long, Chew Diep changed his name to Joe Tape. By Mary's own account, the family lived, “the same as other Caucasians, except in features.” The Tapes lived in the Black Point neighborhood, now called Cow Hollow, which was predominantly white.  But neither the Tapes' affluence nor assimilation could protect them from discrimination.

Transit officials in San Francisco have voted to put HOV lanes on two of the City's busiest corridors.

Joe Fitzgerald Rodriguez dove head-first into a career in journalism in his hometown of San Francisco. In this podcast, the young veteran reporter takes us through the later days of his time in City College's journalism program. After a brief stint at SF State, Joe got hired to write for the SF Bay Guardian, and rode it out until that weekly folded. He soon found work as a reporter and opinion columnist at the Examiner, a job he held until just last month. These days, he's a producer/reporter for KQED News. If you missed Part 1, please go back to hear all about Joe's parents and his upbringing in Cow Hollow. ​We recorded this podcast on Zoom during quarantine in San Francisco in April 2020.

Joe Fitzgerald Rodriguez grew up in Cow Hollow, and he'd like you to know what that means. In this podcast, the prolific San Francisco journalist tells the story of how his parents met (it involves his mom and uncle hitchhiking from Los Angeles to San Francisco). He talks about the neighborhood where he grew up and all the misconceptions that surround it. An influential neighbor he had back then led him to become a writer for his middle school newspaper. Joe ends the podcast sharing stories from his time making documentary videos in high school, and how, in a roundabout way, that led him back to journalism at City College.

Our second episode is with Laurie Thomas, executive director of the Golden Gate Restaurant Association and a San Francisco restaurateur behind Rose’s Cafe and Terzo in Cow Hollow. We ended up recording this episode on the fly, truly, because of the big news that recently dropped from San Francisco Mayor London Breed. She has placed a temporary 15-percent cap on the often-excessive commission fees charged by third-party delivery apps to restaurants, which can reach up to 30 percent or more. We discuss the Mayor’s decision to help support San Francisco restaurants with this order (and through other ways), talk about some of the confusion surrounding the use and terms of these delivery apps, and Laurie shares additional thoughts about the massive challenges our restaurants are currently facing.

Kristina ist zurück aus New York und wir haben mit Caroline von der Groeben, SVP Partnerships und Business Development bei Axel Springer, heute einen Gast auf den wir uns schon lange gefreut haben. Caro ist seit sechs Jahren bei Axel Springer und seit 1,5 Jahren lebt sie in San Francisco. Ihre Karriere begann bei Bayer, Procter & Gamble und mehreren Startups in Berlin. Sie sitzt im Board von Zumper und baut im Auftrag von Axel Springer nebenbei gerade einen “Campus” in Cow Hollow um, in den bald die Journalisten von Bild und Welt einziehen sollen, die für den Medienkonzern an der Westküste die deutsche Nachtschicht übernehmen. Caro reist für Axel Springer durch die USA, trifft sich mit Gründern und Investoren und schaut sich Trends und neue Geschäftsmodelle an. Sie findet es spannend, dass der ehemalige DreamWorks-Chef Jeffrey Katzenberg und die ehemalige eBay-Chefin Meg Whitman mit Quibi ein Abomodell für Kurzformate launchen wollen. Für die Idee haben die beiden Gründer bereits eine Milliarde Dollar eingesammelt. Andere Trends sind das Internet der Dinge, mit vielen Anwendungen für Smart Homes und Autos, autonome Mobilität, künstliche Intelligenz und Robotik. Caro war vor kurzem bei der SXSW-Konferenz in Austin und hat dort den Vortrag der Futuristen Amy Webb über die Trends von 2019 angehört. Axel Springer hat verschiedene Anlaufstellen für Gründer, die nach Investitionen suchen: Axel Springer investiert strategisch in digitale Medien und im Bereich Classifieds (Kleinanzeigen) Der Axel Springer Venture-Arm investiert in spannende junge Unternehmen im Early Stage Bereich Der APX Accelerator hilft in Partnerschaft mit Porsche Gründern bei der Unternehmensgründung Wie immer freuen wir uns über deinen Kommentar und eine 5-Sterne-Bewertung!

Before opening their doors in the Cow Hollow neighborhood of San Francisco, Chris spent 15 years in wine and spirits sales in the Bay Area, working mostly with wineries in California, Oregon or Washington. He met a number of winemakers and proprietors who shared his passion for wine and for being good stewards of the land. These relationships reinforced Chris’ belief that wines from the West Coast are just as good, if not better, than wines from anywhere else in the world. Back at home in San Francisco, Chris noticed the lack of support for West Coast wineries on many wine lists. Despite the high quality wines produced in the area, most local places were (and still are) pouring imported wines. So, along with wife Lindsey, he decided to do something about it. Four years, and four Wine Spectator 'Award of Excellence' honors later, West Coast Wine • Cheese continues to showcase regional wines by serving up premium experiences in a relaxed, unpretentious atmosphere, now in two locations; their original San Francisco spot & the new lounge in Mill Valley.

Brianna Haag is the founder of The Mr. Marina Competition and she does it all in the name of charity. In 2008, Brianna found out her Dad had been diagnosed with leukemia. She made the decision to do something about it. Brianna connected with the local chapter of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) and started fundraising for them. She was extremely successful and was nominated for the San Francisco Woman of the Year award in 2012. As part of this award nomination, Brianna launched a 10-week fundraising campaign that included the Mr. Marina Competition. The event was a huge success and ultimately led to Brianna winning the award for Woman of the Year. She has put on a Mr. Marina Competition every year since and raised over $500,000 for the LLS. We talk about some of the funniest moments from all the competitions and I try to find out more about one of her guest judges, Marina Girl Says. Brianna lives in the "Russian Hill side of Cow Hollow". We talk about her favorite spots in the hood and throughout San Francisco.
