How exactly does the @Warriors floor get built?

Photo wizard @CAGisMe & I loitered in Chase Center between Springsteen & the Ws/Mavs game to witness the hidden magic of a court conversation ✨🏀

Don’t miss Carlos’ thrilling time-lapse video!

Most court conversions are at 3 a.m.; incredibly fast & efficient so it’s ready for morning shootaround

Salute to the workers of @IATSE @IATSE_Local16 ✊🏼— especially the orange mallet guy at the end ⬇️

How bad was the Spanish flu of 1918 in San Francisco?

Dancing was banned, church was closed and going in public with no mask meant 10 days in jail.

A century before coronavirus, thousands died in the city. Rare photos & @sfchronicle archive stories ⬇️

sfchronicle.com/oursf/article/… Was surprised/not surprised by how many drug companies and drug stores made ... unsubstantiated ... advertising claims about the 1918 Spanish flu.

(We now know that gargling with Listerine was NOT a legit preventative measure for one of the deadliest pandemics in history.) ImageImage

Chronicle managing editor Karl Anderson in 1929. Walls have been reconfigured, but this is basically @AudreyCooper's office now. Judging by the look on his face, he's approving travel invoices. There's a Californians Inc. "Let's Grow" poster on the ground. Big S.F. skyscraper boom was in the 1920s. (Art Deco PacBell Building and Russ Building included.)
