Two tents on center meridian on San Bruno between 15th and Alameda. Once an area of many tents, the city has erected a series of fences extending across the sidewalk to the street to prevent people from coming back. With no fences yet on the meridian, people setup there, or they move a few blocks away. Photo Robert Gumpert 03 March 2025
