Doing Business in the Bayview Part One of Two Parts

Welcome to Part One of Doing Business In the Bayview. This episode is focused on economic and community development efforts being executed by community members in the Bayview neighborhood of San Francisco, California.

The Bayview community is experiencing gentrification which in turn is pushing out some of its longtime residents and changing the face of the community. Our show features Community members discussing how they are working together to both develop and execute economic and community development solutions; while retaining Bayview’s unique blend of culture and history.

In this episode, we feature the voices of:

• Andrea Baker http://www.andreabakerconsulting.com/


• April Spears of Auntie April’s Chicken, Waffles & Soul Food Restaurant http://auntieaprilsf.com/about-2/


• Barbara Ockel Executive Director of The Historic Bayview Opera House http://bvoh.org/aboutUs/index.shtml
