The problem with tearing down the mission to build huge apt buildings is that it's racist. SoMa was built by razing the houses of black people in the 80s; see Janet Delaney's work at the SFMOMA (https://www.sfmoma.org/artwork/2010.70 https://www.sfmoma.org/artwork/2010.70) to see what it used to look like. If you want to talk about replacing detached houses with condos, then you should include Noe Valley, Hayes Valley, Sunset, and the Richmond. And you need to have a plan for where the displaced families and people of color will go (it's not like you can move them to the burbs like in NYC or LA).
