HARD RESET PRESENTS: AN ARCHITECTURAL TOUR OF NORTH BEACH

Are you a tech professional stuck in front of a screen all day? Hard Reset gets it, so we are bringing you back out into the streets of the city we all love. Our guide, Katherine Petrin, will walk and talk about the neighborhood’s rich architectural legacy. Find out the difference between a Romeo flat and an alley flat. See clinker brick up close. Find out why Columbus Avenue is diagonal in a gridded neighborhood. And join us for mimosas + a guided discussion afterward with members of the Hard Reset team! On the house, of course ;) WTF is Hard Reset?Great question. Hard Reset is a Substack publication focused on the experience of tech PROFESSIONALS, not founders, as the tech industry radically changes. We run an event series for folks within the industry to chat about the overlap between tech, labor, and what it means to build community IRL, while connecting through the spaces we all share. Katherine Petrin is an Architectural Historian and Preservation Planner in private practice with offices in North Beach. She co-founded SF Neighborhood Theater Foundation, which advocates for the City's historic movie theaters. She has worked in New York City, London, and Sevilla, Spain. Her hometown, San Francisco, is a very fun place to do this kind of work. Spots are limited!
