It is so damned cheap ass looking and does not go with the area at all.
Someone at the Presidio Trust got paid for this POS and San Francisco is getting uglier by the day.
There was no reason to remove the chains that makes any kind of sense except someone was involved in a payola.
Was this even up for public discussion, which might be part of the law?
If this is a historical site then they violated terms of the National Register of Historic Places, of which the Presidio at San Francisco is a registered National Historic Landmark and was designated as such in 1962.
And the reason they made it a Shitty 3 foot high barrier is because they could hide their crime as a permit is not required for any fence that is 3 feet or less.
Except now a disable person or drunk can easily topple over this and sue because it’s purpose is to prevent people from falling over but, it would need to be 4 foot to accomplish that
https://sfplanning.org/resource/fences
A building permit is not required for a fence that is three feet or less in height at the front of a property, or six feet or less in height at the side or rear property lines. Neighborhood notification is not required for fences ten feet or less in height. If a fence is ten feet or less in height and it meets the restrictions discussed below, it will usually be approved over the counter.
Clever huh?
They are beautifying the rest of the Presidio but, here they make it flat out ugly?
Someone got paid.
I doubt SF Planning applies in the GGNRA (which includes the Presidio).
So maybe Brandon got his 10%?
