	'''~~North~~ of Seals Stadium ~~on Bryant near Alameda~~ was ~~the Rainer Ale Brewery, which later becomes the Hamms Brewery~~.'''		'''The former Hamm's Brewery (before that the Rainier Brewery), now an office building, used to anchor the northeast corner of the Mission at 15th & Bryant, adjacent to the Freeway and former [[Post WWII Demise \| Seals' Stadium]]. For a brief time it was home to a thriving punk rock scene and known as [[M.D.C. AND THE VATS\|"The Vats."]]'''

			Until the [[Industrial San Francisco in the 1970s\|late 1970s/early 1980s]] the northeast corner of the neighborhood was still home to a large pocket of industrial sites with their blue-collar jobs, including breweries, a mayonnaise factory, a cement factory, several steel mills, and so on. This same corner was targeted by the pro-business [[Mayor Frank Jordan\|Mayor Jordan]] as a "Biotech Development Zone," but community opposition derailed that. By the mid-1990s the area was being converted into offices and lofts, largely serving small media companies and their employees (e.g. ''SF Bay Guardian'', KQED, etc.)
