The Gulch is our densest, most successful neighborhood, and serves a bunch of parking garages, etc - I really can’t fathom why we would not replicate 11th Ave (+a bus lane) on the east bank.

S.F. made it easier three years ago to build fourplexes. None have been built as a result Legislation in 2022 aimed to spur construction of small apartment buildings in San Francisco. The city has received 11 applications and nothing has been built.

I’m glad we wasted everyone’s time with this. www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/f...

Putting a 25% tariff on automobiles and then saying congestion pricing is a "tax on the working class" is actually so funny tbh

Couldn't sell so it's now listed for rent.

We had the opportunity for 33 small apartments (NIMBY'd in 2018) and then about 16 townhomes (NIMBY'd in 2022). So now we hv one giant house that nobody wants.

Right next to places many people enjoy eating & drinking.

The line graph shows the change in the S&P 500 index during the first 250 days since the inauguration of various U.S. presidents. Different colored lines represent each president's term: George W. Bush (2nd term) in red, Barack Obama (1st term) in blue and (2nd term) in green, Donald Trump (1st term) in purple and (2nd term) in brown, and Joe Biden in orange. The y-axis represents the change in the S&P 500, while the x-axis shows days since inauguration. Joe Biden's term shows the most significant increase, while Donald Trump's 2nd term experienced a sharp decline early on.
