Now that I'm off my bikes until my daughter is a year old (and her neck is strong enough to join me), I've been more aware of small efforts to green the urban landscape. Like development, greening can be horizontal or vertical. I recently noticed 2 seemingly independent instillation of greening the front of buildings.
The first is at an obvious high-pedestrian area, 16th Street near Valencia, on a hip storefront.
The second seemed a bit more radical, by a SOMA freeway onramp. I wonder if the cars see it? It must make some impact on highly-local air quality... or at least its perception.
