When I first visited in 2011, near the Moscone Center, I saw dozens of homeless and a naked guy in a biker hat while heading to my hotel. Human shit and drug needles on the sidewalk. Last year, I am not sure I saw anything, but I was closer to the pier. It did stink like sewage on a couple of streets and nobody seemed to care.

It's worth noting that San Francisco has a long tradition of public nudity, so the naked guy probably shouldn't necessarily be included here, unless there was another reason to do so.

And also a long history of drug addicts and human shit on the streets apparently

The twitter office is on Market Street, so this is totally plausible

Twitter HQ was in the middle of one those streets.

> a few streets like in skid row.

like the area immediately around city hall, and enclosing half the BART stations & good chunks of MUNI?
