No Dig, August 2: Farewell June, Tonight: National Night Out, Chinatown business press conference, First Friday art
June Osterberg 1929–2016
Our dear friend, neighbor and North Beach activist June Osterberg passed away early Monday morning, August 1, 2016, at The Avenue Assisted Living, located on Van Ness at Geary. She was a long-time resident of North Beach, at the corner of Columbus and Filbert, and was active in preserving the character of North Beach and San Francisco.
She was bright and energetic up until her health took a downturn several weeks ago. A date for her memorial and other details will be forthcoming. A brief bio of June.

100 community members including residents and small business owners

Chinatown. Treehouse Space, formerly 1920C, has performed research

last 5 years.
