Day 24 of the 16th St. Plaza cleanup: Cleanup amid thin patrols
Briefly

On Friday, a lighter police presence was noted in San Francisco, though city workers from the Department of Public Works and homeless outreach teams were actively maintaining visibility. Residents expressed confusion over this strategy, with one noting a lack of substantial police engagement. While public works focused on cleaning areas like Caledonia Street, litter remained a concern. Outreach teams had brief interactions with individuals in need, but overall activity in the area fluctuated, resulting in mostly empty streets outside of short-lived pedestrian movements.
A litter box filled with trash during the cleaning and remained full hours later, drawing attention from a few passersby who stepped around it.
Two workers inside spoke to a man/woman standing by the passenger-side window. The encounter was brief, and the workers remained in the area for several minutes before moving on.
