Today, we'd like you to ask us anything.

Well, not quite: We want to answer your questions about things going on around you—present, past and future. We've got a lot of local knowledge that doesn't make it into our news stories, and we want to share it with you. 

Wondering if there's some cool history behind your street address? Need a recommendation for where to take the in-laws for dinner? Looking for statistics or data around local issues? Or just wondering what that weird smell and taste might be? 

Whether it's a question about construction and development timelines, retail and restaurant comings and goings, local history or advice on where to go and what to do, we'd like to give it our best shot.

To pose your question, comment on this article, or text us at (415) 200-3233—we'll respond as soon as we're able.

Note: We'll be screening these questions, so please refrain from anything that's offensive or inappropriate.
