Councilman Russ Cohen designed the winning logo for the upcoming charrette. The logo represents the event and was selected to reflect the Howard Avenue area being studied. It also includes the name, Destination: SOBA,? which highlights Howard Avenue's South of Burlingame Avenue location.

Cohen entered the contest under a fake name Bingo Steinhart. His identity was given away by the return address on his submitted artwork. The red and yellow design features photographed letters from Howard Avenue store signs. The S, for example, is from Safeway. The O is from the UPS Store. The B is from The Unique Bride and the A is from Walgreens.
