San Francisco in the Time of the Red

One of my focuses in doing the SFBA:RED thing is to make San Francisco noir again. The wharves are revitalized as shipping goes back to smaller cargo ships. The general SOMA area is a maze of bars, tiny shops, and sailors hostels. The streets are clogged by food carts and bar runners. Sailors from around the Pacific Rim rub shoulders with longshoremen and slumming Execs.

Most of the Sunset and Richmond are combat zones. In the inner sunset and Richmond massive defensible hives have grown up, called Kowloons by the locals. They house the lower class workers who ride downtown on the over-stuffed N train every morning to their menial jobs.

Chinatown has become a foreign territory, controlled by the Tongs who rule the smuggling trade. The Finacial District is revitalized with an influx of NewCorps challenging the last few Megacorps.

Yeah, I've got a lot of writing to do.
