May 29th, 2008So sad to hear that Harvey Korman died today. In tribute, here’s a most excellent scene of him from Blazing Saddles, one of the funniest movies of all time.

One of my least favorite buildings in San Francisco is the Transbay Terminal. It’s dark, dirty, old, and a virtual bum magnet that is a bit scary to walk past, especially after sunset. What’s more, the scope of this horrible landmark is huge - a couple of square blocks, at least. But at last, it’s all going bye-bye - it’s going to be torn down and a stunning new highrise and multilevel public space will be constructed. The winning design was just announced. Building the new structure will take years, but once they tear down the old one, even the construction zone will be an improvement to the neighborhood.
