Colfax

“We are cautiously optimistic that our public health interventions are starting to see results in terms of saving lives,” said Dr. Grant Colfax, director of the San Francisco Department of Public Health.

Methadone prescriptions issued by the health department increased by more than 30% and buprenorphine prescriptions by nearly 50% in the last year, Colfax said.

In 1958, the year I-25 opened to traffic, the State Highway Department constructed the sweeping interchange connecting Federal Boulevard to Colfax Avenue and demolished more than 240 homes and businesses in the process.

Five-star recruit Brynn McGaughy, a 6-foot-3 junior forward at Colfax High, committed to the Washington women’s basketball team on Wednesday.

As a sophomore, McGaughy led Colfax, a small town near Pullman, to a 28-0 record.
