SAN FRANCISCO—A crowd of over 100 residents gathered at Portsmouth Square on June 3 to voice their resistance to the recent effort by the Board of Supervisors to name the upcoming Chinatown subway station after the late Rose Pak, who was a political power broker in the city.
The residents held banners reading “No Chinatown-Rose Pak Station.” The gathering took place one day before the Board of Supervisors and the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SFMTA) will discuss whether or not to name the new subway station after Pak.
