If you think this is doable you haven’t thought hard enough. What of all the home owners? Imminent domain and reclaim the peninsula?

- frgtpsswrdlame 8y agoI think it's doable, you just have to keep going a bit. Is Tyler Cowen right, then? “Basically SF is ed?” No. San Francisco could be just fine. The thing about San Francisco is that while greenfields have been exhausted in the city, the San Francisco Bay Area is largely undeveloped. We are always arguing over San Francisco, or Palo Alto (ick). Outside of the 47 square miles of San Francisco proper are almost 3200 square miles in San Mateo, Santa Clara, Alameda, and Contra Costa counties. (I’ll leave out the hoity-toity North Bay counties — Marin, Sonoma, Napa — but if it’s Latin-America-style land reform you want, the vines there are ripe for revolution!) Nobody wants new suburban sprawl, thank goodness. But dense development is not sprawl, even when it is greenfield development. http://www.interfluidity.com/v2/6487.html http://www.interfluidity.com/v2/6487.html
