Updated > SF Citizen has another post on this<\/a>. There is also now a rebuttal to Nevius posted in the same Chronicle today<\/a> (one columnist goes after another in the same paper). some more history about the Haight Ashbury Improvement associations involvement with this is on uppercasing blog<\/a>. This is also covered in the My Garbage Film blog<\/a><\/p>\n

Chuck Nevious is at it again<\/a><\/p>\n

\nIt’s been five years since the city formally decided that an industrial recycling center was a poor use for Golden Gate Park. Supporters, like site Director Ed Dunn, have debated, cajoled, protested – and in a last-ditch attempt – created a native plants garden.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I can confirm that the Haight Ashbury native plant nursery<\/a> was not started as a ‘last ditch attempt to save the recycling center”. I worked there for an entire year in the late 80’s and Greg Gaar was trying to get it started even back then. It finally got started in the around 2000. It actually took that long just to get space set aside for it from the Parks Department<\/p>\n

CW Nevius didn’t mention the video that was recorded while he was at the recycling center this week, via the recycling center’s own blog<\/a><\/p>\n
