BWA-HAHAHA!!!
The mayor’s mansion is in that gated cul-de-sac. They have private security out front, and you or I can’t even walk through - we’re serfs.
LET THEM EAT CAKE!!
Senator Dianne Feinstein has a mansion on that street. Our current mayor, Edwin Lee, lives in a regular house in a middle-class neighbor in the middle of the City.
I agree that the current residents might be able to argue successfully that they have a prescriptive easement to continue driving over the road to get to their houses. However, the new owners might be able to rent out the parking spaces. Or, just for kicks (and to get the Occupy Wall Streeters on their side), open up the street for the unwashed public to park there for free.
I do like the idea of moving the annual Folsom Street Fair there. I can picture 400,000 sweaty, mainly half- (or entirely-) naked BDSM men descending on Presidio Terrace every September.
