Actually since it's a fixed, semi-private location, it seems really easy to monitor for drug deals. As other comments said it's almost easier to just do deals in public/daylight since not every spot on the sidewalk can be watched at all times.

That’d be great if San Francisco had enough police to monitor for anything.

As it is, drug deals happen in broad daylight on Market St anyway because nobody’s gonna stop them.

Even if you had everything monitored, you still have a drug problem.

[larnmar]

Sure, unless we also had proper punishments for drug offenders.

Or, as has been noted many times, we could just legalize the drugs and do away with this problem.
