take the green bus

Just a couple of months ago the free, green shuttle bus was introduced with no fanfare.  It runs from Jack London Square to Lake Merritt with hop on, hop off privileges.  But only Monday through Friday.  I've read this is a precursor to building a trolley that is intended to run the same route.  A trolley would be cool, but I'll believe it when I see it.

    and thanks for your comment on the Italian restaurant to be. One of the places I'm lucky enough to work in is a historic house leased by York Associates for leadership and language training.

    You're right to be skeptical. We have an ongoing tram saga here in Edinburgh. We'll believe trams exist once they start running. Meantime your free green bus is good news, tho.
