While I generally agree with the overarching argument, it also ignores the fact that a SF "tech ghetto" would not be the same as a Miami "banker ghetto". Tech is compromised of mostly liberals, and many of those liberals wants neighborhoods with a sense of culture. They are not people who want to be siloed away in their ivory towers and gated communities. They might want new construction, but they also want new construction next to Duboce or Mission Dolores. New construction don't tend to build those kinds of community amenities. Mission Bay is experiencing a construction boom, but if given a choice, almost everyone I know would rather live in the older areas because Mission Bay is sterile.
