issues that we've been product on as part of our building our better bay area initiative. good evening, i'm dan ashley. >> i'm ama daetz. laura anthony is live in oakland. laura? >> reporter: hi, ama. anyone who lives here in the bay area can see that it's a growing problem, these homeless encampments like the one behind me. the study shows most of the encampments, 70%, are in just three bay area counties. >> this is why we are all -- >> reporter: a moment of emotion to start a roundtable on homelessness, one to discuss the findings of a new report from the bay area council. oakland mayor libby schaaf began her remarks. a formerly homeless man marcus bishop approached her for a hug. [ applause ] >> reporter: until recently, bishop was one of nearly 30,000 people living on the streets in

the bay area. >> we don't accept that it is okay for someone to have to go to bed in the streets of america and that's their home. >> reporter: of the 28,000 homeless people in the bay area, only one-third, 33%, are in shelters. >> what we need is a region-wide coordinated solution applying the best practices to the entire region, poolin the resources, scaling the solution. >> reporter: the study found some cities and counties do better than others when it comes to solutions, citing oakland's community cabins program as one. >> 70% of the people that we've served have left for that road to sustainability. >> reporter: the report says it will take $12 billion to fix the problem and much greater is no as marcus gst state a bishop knows all too well, solutions to homelessness don't come easily. >> what are we going to do to help 'em, to stabilize 'em?

what are we going to do? we can't just give them handouts, that's for sure. >> reporter: now, of course a factor in all of this is the lack of affordable housing here in the bay area. according to the study, if we continue to build new housing at the current rate, it would still take nearly 20 years to house all the people living out on the street. in oakland, laura anthony, abc 7 news. >> all right, laura, thank you. we do apologize. >> we've had a lighting challenge here. we'll get it sorted out. >> it's working itself out now, i believe. >> this is live television. >> yes. the report laid out a number of solutions which is great in theory. but making a difference at street level, that's a lot more difficult. >> it really is. we sent abc 7 news reporter wayne freedman looking for a success story today. he's live in san francisco. wayne? >> reporter: well, this has been a long term problem in san francisco, ama. yes, the task was find something

that's working. we made some calls. ever heard of delivering innovation and supporting housing? they're called d.i.s.h. yes, it's a problem. when we drive by, step around, and try to ignore it. personified today by dale harris and his dog bruiser. dale has a dream. >> to have a home somewhere. >> this is a pretty standard unit, comes fully furnished. >> reporter: pretty basic. for people coming from san francisco streets, the hotel on sixth street can and does transform lives. >> they looked at you like you were disposable. trash. >> you can't be civilized, you can't be in social -- you feel terrible about yourself. >> reporter: natalie and robert live here in permanent housing subsidized by the city, home to

600 formerly homeles tenants who pay one-third of their incomes for rent. >> the signs are in, supportive housing works. it's cheaper than people in and out of jails, in and out of emergency rooms. most people do really well with of this. >> reporter: and with 28,000 homeless in the region, people are looking for ideas. doug gary, the co-director here, read a list of suggestions about a new state services agency and a regional task force and tax credits and leveraging technology. ultimately, he says, it comes down to finding space. >> we all wish we had a magic wand to make more housing happen. >> reporter: the problem remains as complex as its victims. natalie worked as a dental technician, was working towards her masters, and still drugs lowered her to the streets. >> you wouldn't look at me and know i was ever homeless. >> reporter: to solve a problem, they say, find a model, then

duplicate it. >> i had the drug problem. now i'm clean. so i'm so happy to be inside, you don't even know. >> reporter: that's the difference, having a permanent roof can make in your life. not talk. this is action. also worth noting, d.i.s.h. told us they would need thousands more rooms like this to help solve the problem in san francisco. live in san francisco, wayne freedman, abc 7 news. >> wayne, thank you. abc 7 news anchor eric thomas continues our look at the region's homeless problem. >> he joins us live from concord. eric? >> reporter: the homeless people we talk to like the idea that really smart people are thinking about them and thinking about innovative ways to solve the homeless problem. the problem for them is they've heard a lot of this before. >> safety is the biggest thing ever. >> reporter: donnie diego, the gentleman on the right, is going back on the streets today.

his 90 days at the contra costa county homeless shelter are up. he and his buddy doug never thought they would be homeless. >> i never thought it would be me. i had people who loved me who would never let that happen. >> reporter: that was before he split up with his girlfriend and his world unravrleleunraveled. >> it can be something as simple as heartbreak. >> reporter: he lost his job, his home, and his car. now he goes out on the street where there are many perils. >> findings somewhere to sleep without being hassled by either property owners, the public in general, without having run the risk of being arrested. >> reporter: douglas moore's downward spiral started with his mother's death by cancer. since then it's been a revolving door of the streets, shelters, and back on the street. >> i've been out for seven

years, never had a problem with the cold, the rain, and the floods. i made it through all that. but there's a lot of people who can't. >> reporter: each has a plan to improve their conditions. donnie agrees money can help. but not in the way you think. >> if everybody gave a dollar to help the homeless, we would probably solve homelessness overnight. >> reporter: they frequent this place during the day, you see homeless folks walking around, looking for services, looking for food, hanging out together. the gentleman you saw there, douglas moore, he has one week left in the shelter before he has to find another place to live. and he says right now he has no plan. in concord, eric thomas, abc 7 news. >> all right, eric, thank you. we want to hear your ideas about building a better bay area. share them by joining our better bay area group on facebook. the man accused of being the golden state killer will face

the death penalty if convicted. prosecutors made the announcement this afternoon during joseph deangelo's latest court appearance in sacramento. the 73-year-old is the suspect in at least 13 murders and dozens of rapes in six california counties including santa clara and contra costa. prosecutors have agreed to combine the cases together into one trial. last month governor newsom issued an executive order imposing a moratorium on executions of current death row inmates. and now "the l.a. times" says newsom is considering stopping local prosecutors from seeking any new death penalty sentences. but that hasn't happened yet. a fast food restaurant chain is set to open next month at san jose international. there is opposition that has nothing to do with the food it serves. abc 7 news reporter anser hassan says it has nothing to do with the chain's politics. >> reporter: chik-fil-a is set to open here next month.

last night a group of lgbtq activists presented their concerns in a letter. they want the city to understand their concerns. this chik-fil-a hasn't generated any sales. but the restaurant that's set to open next month is already generating controversy. >> chik-fil-a is known to be anti-lgbtq by the millions of dollars that they have put into anti-gay organizations. >> reporter: at tuesday night's city council meeting, lgbtqbtqbq activists recognized how complicated the matter can be. the contract is with a restaurant group and subcontracted with chik-fil-a. they say they didn't know who would be coming in. >> some of us didn't know to the extent of what the activities with chik-fil-a's owner, the former owner, i guess he passed away, and some of us just didn't, you know, connect the two. >> reporter: one of the solutions, to fly the lgbtq and transgender flags at the airport

and not to renew hms hosts' six-year contract. >> we value inclusiveness, diversity, and welcome in our city and we want to make sure our airport exemplifies those values. >> reporter: many passengers say they'll still eat at chik-fil-a despite the behind the scenes politics. >> chik-fil-a is good, they have a good selection, a nice environment. >> reporter: but others say it's about the city's commitment to inclusion. >> the greater commitment to work together so this doesn't happen again. >> reporter: one reason the city is not granting the two-year extension is because chik-fil-a does not operate seven days a week. chik-fil-a issued a statement last month. they say yes, their founder uses biblical principles to run the company go they say they're adamant that their support for certain groups has nothing to do with attacking or silencing others.

anser hassan, abc 7 news. tonight, an update to a story that was one of the most popular on abc7news.com for days. those mannequins in the front yard of a santa rosa home that we showed you are gone. jason windus installed naked mannequins after the city hit him with a zoning violation because his fence was too high. he says his neighbor also complained about visibility auction. so windus decided to comply with the city and cut the fence and also install the unique garden party in protest of the zoning violation. he sent this message, "had to send my party guests home yesterday, time to start working on rebeautifying my yard. seems like an endless money pit at the moment. i'm confident my nosy neighbor got my memo. here are all of them waving goodbye." coming up, after 249 days the salesforce transit center is still closed had of when will it reopen? and today the first ever

photograph of a black home was released. plus kim kardashian west, attorney at law? i'm spencer christian. clouds and cooling breezes will move in tomorrow. your brain is an amazing thing. but as you get older, it naturally begins to change, causing a lack of sharpness, or even trouble with recall. thankfully, the breakthrough in prevagen helps your brain and actually improves memory. the secret is an ingredient originally discovered... in jellyfish. in clinical trials, prevagen has been shown to improve short-term memory. prevagen. healthier brain. better life.

we are one step closer to the reopening of the salesforce transit center in san francisco. it's been shut down since september 25th. >> now the steel plates that will reinforce several support beams have arrived and construction to fix those beams is expected to be complete by june 1st. that's 249 days after the

closure. >> it's been a long haul, right? so when do we expect the center to reopen? for that let's go to abc 7 news reporter lyanne melendez who took a tour of where the work is being done. lyanne? >> reporter: again, we were told that the work inside that building will be finished, completed, as you said, by june 1st. but reopening that entire building, that structure, and making sure that everything is up and running, well, that's another story. >> if we can move out to the drive aisle, that would be helpful, to make some room. >> reporter: it's been nearly seven months since the salesforce transit center was closed. today we got a firsthand look at how engineers will reinforce the beams that were cracked. >> i'm going to be using my hands a lot. >> reporter: 16 of these sandwich plates were built in pennsylvania, and holes drilled in stockton. >> it's a high strength steel. it's a bolted connection that was approved that will end up going in the girders. >> reporter: here is a rendering of where those plates will end

up. they're represented in white and will act like two slices of bread bolted in between the girder. >> will be installed and that will be the reinforcement for these girders. >> reporter: eight plates will be used to reinforce the girders on the fremont side, where the cracks first appeared. engineers will do the same on the first street side of the transit center. san francisco resident jenny lim hopes this time it works. >> we need to put people first, especially in an earthquake-prone city like san francisco. >> reporter: this doesn't mean the building will reopen for business. >> at a point in time we'll be able to determine with te independent reviews approval of when that time when we can identify a reopening date for the center. >> reporter: in the meantime, people will continue to use the

temporary transbay terminal at howard and mission streets. >> having to walk two blocks doesn't bother me. but just in terms of convenience, like that has been really frustrating. >> reporter: so, again, for this building to res reopen, a few ts need to happen. they need to do a complete review and the metropolitan transportation committee has to conduct its own independent review and bring inspectors. it's going to take a long time. so it's a long process. in the meantime, if you want to see the entire timeline of what's been going on here, visit our website, abc7news.com. it's very, very helpful. live in san francisco, lyanne melendez, abc 7 news. >> lyanne, thank you. black holes are among the biggest mysteries in the universe. >> albert einstein theorized about them more than a hundred years ago but scientists couldn't approve they existed until now. >> now they have a picture to

prove it. abc 7 news meteorologist drew tuma has a closer look. >> a picture is capturing the world's imagination today. take a look at this. it's not just any image. it's been 55 million years in the making. >> we have seen what we thought was unseeable. we have seen and taken a picture of a black hole. >> the image caught the imagination of astronomer gerald mckeegan in oakland. >> there's so much energy produced you get this bright glow around it. that is actually material being pulled into the black hole with a tremendous amount of energy. >> that material is moving at light speeds which creates the colorful glow. black holes are stars that died, exploded, and collapsed into a super dense object. >> you can imagine 6.5 billion suns squeezed down to smaller than a grain of sand. it has so much gravity that anything that gets too close to

it will not be able to escape. >> just getting a picture of it was a remarkable achievement. this black hole is located in the m87 galaxy, about 55 million light-years away. scientists used eight radio telescopes around the globe to capture 5 million gigabytes of data. >> we get a lot of kids coming up here. and you would be amazed how many of them are asking us about black holes. now we can actually show them a picture of the black hole and say, this is what it looks like. >> drew tuma, abc 7 news. >> is that not utterly fascinating? take a look at this image, now going viral. it shows one of the researchers on the black hole project as the first image was being processed. oh, my, right? her name is katie bauman. mit, where she studies, tweeted the image. she's credited with coming up with the algorithm that allowed the telescope to take that photo. she grew up in indiana, and now teaches at cal tech. keeping up with the kardashians. in the courtroom, kim kardashian

my gums are irritated. i don't have to worry about that, do i? harmful bacteria lurk just below the gum line. crest gum detoxify, voted product of the year. it works below the gum line to neutralize harmful plaque bacteria and help reverse early gum damage. gum detoxify, from crest. breathe freely fast, with vicks sinex. my congestion's gone. i can breathe again! ahhhh! i can breathe again! ughh! vicks sinex. breathe on.

>> reporter: well, the sharks are about 45 minutes away from making their 14th playoff appearance in the last 15 seasons and another date with the vegas golden knights. you would think their regular season matchups are intense. the sharks certainly plan to up the ante tonight. that means home ice is going to be huge for them. they really need their home fans to be loud and set that intensity right off the bat, because the sharks didn't really necessarily end the regular season well, winning only three of the last 12 games. evander cane explains. >> obviously we weren't playing well before the regular season ended but we got the details more locked in than previous games. this time of year everyone in the room knows what's at stake. we're excited to start it off here at home. >> las vegas takes a lot of

shots on goal. where is the sharks' emphasis in preventing that? >> they unfortunately got off to some quick starts against us in the past. we're going to have to do our best to limit that in this series here. i know we got off to a great start last time we played them in this building. then they were able to capitalize quickly. >> you said what will be important for you is discipline in this series. you know what's at stake. how much attention do you expect to get from the golden knights, seeing as how this is post-season and the game changes a little bit? >> yeah, i think with everybody. they're a team that likes that physical element. i think last game we played them here, we made them a little bit uncomfortable with a lot more pushback than we've had in the past. for us, that's going to be key. we want to stay disciplined and stick to our game plan. for us, you know, we have to be ready for that physical test as well. >> thank you for a few moments and the best of luck tonight. >> thank you. >> reporter: warriors are playing their last game of the regular season right now. their goal, keep everyone

healthy. steph curry is not playing tonight as he suffered a mild foot sprain in last night's game. but steve kerr says he will be good to go for game one. kevin durant and klay thompson are playing tonight as well. they're in memphis. the warriors open, then later in the first play, thompson drains a three, 19 in the first half. jacob evans knocks down the 1,000th three in the season. quinn cook goes long distance to bell for the slam. as we mentioned, they've wrapped up the number one seed so they'll be fine. the giants closed out their series with the padres at oracle park tonight. kevin pilar remains hot, with eight rbi. he's the first to have eight rbi in back-to-back game since barry

bonds. it was just a perfect day to enjoy a little time outside with the family. potter is up in the fourth. pilar drives this one out to left field, leaves the giants with nine rbi la. he just joined them last week. nice play by manny machado. the game stays tied at 1 after the replay challenge. in the sixth, machado also delivers with the bat. this is what they pay him to do. an opposite field home run. machado the 50th right-haded hitter to hit a homer to right in oracle park history, unbelievable. the padres win 3-1 the final. they go ahead and take that series. former "a" dan straley taking on the green and gold. that's a solo shot. it comes with his family in attendance, pretty cool moment for the family. 3-0 a's. a big two-run shot to right and

the a's take the lead. chris davis also added two home runs and the a's run up the score in baltimore for a second straight game. they win 10-3. so that is it for sports. we'll bring you those highlights from tonight's playoff game starting at 9:00, guys. >> thanks, mindi. >> go sharks. that's our report. we appreciate your time. >> for all of us, thanks for being here. see you a little later tonight. ♪ inside out got it figured out,♪ ♪ i'm feeling good. ♪ doing it my own way, ♪ every single day. ♪ and it feels good to feel good. ♪ start your day with sunsweet amazin! prune juice. and feel good. people wake. and smile, when they see the sun. not that one. this one. it makes knowing when to take your prescriptions clear as day. up to fifty percent of people don't take them properly.
