Speak for yourself. I just purchased Mission Bay adjacent property and the neighborhood is fine. The park in particular is pleasant and well-maintained, and that new public library branch is a very nice addition to the city. UCSF is anything but "dangerous": I have no idea where you got that notion from. And retail is just tough in the modern environment. If there's someone to blame for the woes of retail, it's Amazon. Not the developers for catering to the whims of the Planning Commission.
I'm excited to see the new Pier 70 development, and I wouldn't have bought if I didn't think the new development was going to be anything other than a nice way to make the central waterfront accessible again and some sorely needed housing. How could I be a NIMBY when the area doesn't even have a grocery store yet?
You know what isn't a livable neighborhood? The Sunset, with its rows and rows of ticky-tackies with ugly little yards in the back. Give me Mission Bay over that pastel low-rise concrete jungle any day of the week.
- DrScump 9y agoI hope you've obtained earthquake insurance. Mission Bay is on extremely low-quality fill. Also, be prepared for your neighborhood to be overrun on event nights at the new Warriors building and 83+ Giants home games each year. April and May will include both Warriors and Giants games simultaneously at times. Get home early, or stay out late.
