First they paved paradise and put up a parking lot.
Now this.

6th Street is/was the SF wine district. People coming in from SFO come in on buses saw nothing but derelicts. With gentrification the place has nowhere to go but up. South of Market(SOMA) became Manhattenized under Willie Brown. Last I looked 469 Stevenson is part of SOMA. This Manhattenization process took care of a lot of union workers at the price of SF’s uniqueness. Stopping this project will not put the genie back in the bottle.

Just look at the convention center. Modern but no one wants to hold them in SF anymore. Know why?
