Sharing the 'hood

Down my Mission district street, there's a wide set of stairs where a group of young men sometimes congregates. They sit and talk and smoke -- and never seem any kind of threat to me, though I'm instinctively wary of groups of young men.

The residents of the building have apparently decided to set up some ground rules. These seem quite reasonable and the sign has stayed up for nearly a month, so I guess co-existence is working.
