A neighborhood landscaping project in San Francisco's Mission District is raising eyebrows and drawing controversy.
Some believe the effort to install large metal planters on several city blocks is an effort to deter the unhoused from camping out on sidewalks.
A group of about 50 Mission residents raised about $25,000 to install the heavy planters to beautify the street but others believe it's a way to deter homeless encampments from returning area."Everybody has to have a place to live, but personally I don't believe the street or sidewalk is a place to live," Poznicek said.
Some are critical of project, Jennifer Friedenbach from the Coalition on Homelessness says fundraising efforts should be targeted elsewhere.
