just walked past city hall: inside is blocked and gated with seven or so cops inside. east side is completely barricaded off with metal bar barricades. west side (fountain side) is wide open and empty of cops, though the homeless have remained camped out there. north side has three or so media trucks with satellites ready to broadcast and cameras being set up now. cop cars are circling (saw two police vans) and a couple cop cars are parked inside the barricade on the east side (where more police are walking beat). i spoke with one officer-- he said they had extra barricades to ready block the west side depending on how things went tomorrow; he was very unclear about what that meant, though he said it's of course legal for us to assemble.
