Blowtorch attack on Wells Fargo ATM at Canyon Market

April 21, 2023 by Elizabeth Weise

Glen Park residents who bank at Wells Fargo have been frustrated over the past few weeks when they stopped by the ATM in front of Canyon Market to get cash or deposit a check. Multiple times in the past month it’s been unaccountably out of service. Or maybe not so unaccountably. It turns out, people […]

September 29, 2022 by Bonnee Waldstein

A little over 24 hours after Canyon Market was shut down by the Department of Public Health (DPH), causing anger and distress among Glen Park residents and owners Richard and Janet Tarlov, the store has reopened.

September 28, 2022 by Bonnee Waldstein

In a stunning move, the Department of Public Health (DPH) closed Canyon Market for remediation of a rodent infestation.

Bill Foley is hanging up his Canyon Market jacket

March 28, 2022 by Bonnee Waldstein

Shoppers at Canyon Market had better take note of a familiar sight there, because it won’t be around much longer. That would be Bill Foley at the cash register. After fourteen years Bill, 69, is retiring. March 31 will be his last day. Bill, a native of Philadelphia, came to the city in 1976 soon […]

Neighbors still say Hi in Village of Glen Park

March 23, 2021 by Bonnee Waldstein

If you think this headline was written today, think again.  Think about over twenty years ago, May 26, 2000, when this was the headline in SF Gate, followed by a rundown of the people and places that make our neighborhood cozy and warm. After you read the SF Gate story, look at the “footnotes” that […]
