Like thedufer says, as soon as the real blockers to development get the fuck out of the way, we'll see how well Rent Stabilization and the "Affordable Housing" mandates work in SF. As it stands now, it's next to impossible to build in the city. Frankly, subsidized housing succeeds in many districts. Once SF and -more generally- the SFBA decide to stop lining the pockets of real estate speculators and investment firms and start building housing to meet the current and future demand, we'll see a change in the character of the area for the better.
