coming next year whose spirit is stream lined, stop obstructing, delaying, build more housing, and this is absolutely the time. we need the housing. as much as folks would like, it s not possible to build a wall around the mission. somehow that s going to help what s going on there. this is a citywide crisis that affects every neighborhood. approve this project without delay. thank you. president hillis: thank you. next speaker, please. hi. my name is richard hack. i ve heard these are a lot of good arguments. just a couple of things, the architecture of this project and the one before are hideous. i mean, they look like shopping bags or boxes. our architectural commission created a lot of create buildings. i wonder here what happened to the architecture. the demand to live in san francisco is almost infinite. it s absolutely impossible to build enough units to drive the rents down. now and then there s a little dip, because markets fluctuate, but that s not a valid arg
