By Bicycle - South Curtis Park and Sacramento City College


The nice thing about having a bike now is that I can investigate some of these intermediate range places - places too far to easily walk, but usually the sort of places I drive past.

Houses under construction. All part of the Crocker Village infill development.

I hadn't concerned myself too much with the epic battles over this development, mostly because they concerned the south end of Curtis Park, and I lived at the north end. Nevertheless, it was clear that the developer Paul Petrovich was a nut, and so I supported all the grief he got, and more.


New Safeway.


Union Pacific Rail Yards - looking south from the pedestrian overcrossing.

Apparently building this bridge was a big deal.
