FTC Surveils The Haight

by The Editors on March 1, 2010

Ftc LogoFTC Skateboard Shop’s Kent Uyehara is taking part in a new Haight Ashbury Improvement Association plan to put surveillance cameras into local businesses to help police cut crime in the trendy urban neighborhood, according to a story on the SF Examiner.

Uyehara says he just wants residents, tourists and the homeless to get along. . . “We need to have a better balance if we’re going to keep this an attractive tourist attraction, a destination that’s also located in a residential neighborhood.”

Slow crime, speed business.
