Walking Buddies

My bf and I will be attending the NOWD and staying at an inn on Bush St and plan on walking the 10 blocks to the event.

We're willing to meet up with solo walkers so that no one has to walk strange streets alone. So, just give a holler if you'd like a walking buddy or two! I know one person messaged me before the site wipe, but I didn't write down the user name, and I'm not sure if my message was received, so ... yeah.

My dad and I are also attending, and would be willing to walk with single folks who don't want to walk alone. We are very close to the event (he can't walk long distances) at the Hotel Galleria. So if anyone checks their maps and are along that route, we'll be happy to walk with as well!

Having attended last year, may I suggest also that solo out-of-town walkers pre-program the number of a couple local taxi companies into their phones before leaving? We managed to catch a cab after the event, but they were not as abundant as one might have hoped. Cab-sharing is also something we might want to arrange in advance.

Any other suggestions from locals on this topic?

I am going to be walking from/to BART, if any one need walking buddies, let me know.

I'll probably take public transport this year (I'm staying in SOMA/Mission this year). But last year, I walked about 20 blocks to where I was staying and it was fine -- I didn't feel unsafe at all. :)

I'm going to be at Club Quarters this year, which is off on 'the other side' of the Merchants Exchange building - four blocks to the northeast. I've always been on the southwest side before, which is where the Galleria Park is, and Union square and Lori's diners.

But I'm up for walking with people - I can probably even meet up at someplace like the Galleria Park.

Can someone tell me what this NOWD is? It sounds fun.

I'm trying a new place this year - the Carleton on Sutter. If we do end up walking, we'll be going right past the Galleria Park and can join the party there.

I'll definitely need walking buddies, just not sure where I'm staying yet.

I'll be taking BART from Berkeley so I need a walking buddy. Thanks.

Hey everyone, here's what i propose.
People who are taking the BART in from somewhere should all get off at the Montgomery street station. From there Montgomery goes straight to the Ballroom. I need a walking buddy back to Montgomery station from the event and that's the closest one to the event. People walking to the event could meet at Montgomery station or could meet anywhere along Montgomery.
Any other ideas?

Whoever is staying at the Mosser Hotel are welcome to be my walking buddy. Anybody?

My buddy and I will be getting on the Bart at the Montgomery station, taking it to Civic Center/UN plaza, and then walking ALL the way to Scott street. We would love to have walking buddies. Anybody by chance taking a similar route? :D

I would really advise taking a cab or bus from the civic center, those aren't exactly the parts of town you want to be wandering late at night
