Permits, height laws, comment periods where some nimby will block the development. Otherwise they would of done it already because there is a lot of relative cash to be made to the cost of building.
On a relative per capita basis, SF is building a lot less than lets say houston or similar. And the reason why it's a lot slower is because of all of the above.

- oxryly1 12y agoIt's a chicken and egg situation. Developers propose larger than they want because inevitably the negotiations with city and neighbors reduce their plans.
