Commissioner antonini. Thank you a little bit of a followup last week he talked about the book im reading this is instructive about the mission and the period i talked about last week was more the early period from the earthquake to 19 thirty where the district was probably viewed as one of the best in the city the home of 3 mayors you know had influence beyond just San Francisco statewide but when the depreciation came the private money drill down driedup and things happened directing your attention 19 to that added to problems we deal with today, the first was economic downturn and there was this private activity to increase thepnea new deal the federal Housing Authority and the Loan Corporation is lentd money to people and they rated the neighborhood by corresponds from green, blue, yellow and red depending on the desirability the factors into desirability has nothing to do with with ethnic content but mixed use it was viewed as something undesirable so even the least desirable the red areas were good morning, and welcome to the regular meeting of the loans from bank of america via the federal agencies but straurl enough most of the Mission District that was largely housing not zoned at all it had no designation because they felt because there was some industrial use not an area they could get loans so some of the housing that can be having renovated during 19 thirty to 50 was not upgraded because there wasnt any money available and another thing that happened i think shaped the neighborhood in a negative way the building of freeways like the bayshore that was not necessarily desirable for housing and they encourage more industrial use and less housing they saw it as a perfect path for the bayshore freeway between the mission and potrero hill and a plan to put a mission freeway the author said valencia we believe that was guerrero but it was defeated and the bayshore was built those were factors i think influenced the area even today because of those particular governmental actions from the 30s and 1950s we all see the effect of the freeways and the way that neighborhoods have become much more vitally and after the appraise are gone theres not much hope of getting rid of the bayshore freeway but the other thing those issues created was greater proximity of pdr uses and housing uses where you might not expect them to be the encouragement to build industrial and not to renovate or build new hours an interesting book i encourage you to read it the final section im reading right now thank you. Commissioner Vice President richards.
