Rudy Gonzalez, one of the union officials, waved to Lurie, who quickly approached to discuss a pressing matter. Walking up to the pair and seeming as "serious as a heart attack," Lurie asked if they'd seen a bearded man wearing a green jacket in the area, Gonzalez recently recalled.

The encounter was reflective of a larger pattern that has unfolded throughout the early months of Lurie’s administration, which will hit the 100-day mark this week. In his first-ever stint in public office, Lurie is trying to embody what he calls a “relentless” approach to his job. He has frequently visited neighborhoods dealing with some of the city’s most difficult challenges with drug dealing, homelessness and illegal vending.

Mayor Daniel Lurie walked down Capp Street in the heart of San Francisco’s Mission District on a recent morning and encountered a welcome sight: mostly empty sidewalks. Lurie has paid regular visits to the Mission to see how his administration’s crackdown on illegal vending and open-air drug scenes in the neighborhood is unfolding.

It turns out Mayor Daniel Lurie's administration got something of a head start on one of its top policy priorities: devising ways to reduce San Francisco's entrenched homelessness crisis. Crankstart, the local foundation started by billionaire venture capitalist Michael Moritz, on Tuesday celebrated the completion of a lengthy report that makes a series of recommendations to slash systemic barriers hindering the city's homeless response.
