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, its not possible to build a wall around the mission. Somehow thats going to help whats 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. Ive 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. Its absolutely impossible to build enough units to drive the rents down. Now and then theres a little dip, because markets fluctuate, but thats not a valid argument and should be reje
Thing id like to see, a. And secondly, if you decide to go ahead with this project. It should have a component of Affordable Housing, at least 33 .

We should be building housing in the mission, we should be building housing in every corridor of the city. Im glad we just approved housing in geary, and i think we should be building housing in a district, especially adjacent to b. A. R. T.
