Burton threatened to block state funding of UC if UCSF didn't lower the height of the building from 17 stories and 165 feet. So we have 15 stories and 145 feet in the tower.
Of course, 1455 Third Street, the building that will be directly across the street from that tower, was zoned for 165 feet and the actual design calls for 159 feet.
165 feet is the the maximum height allowable within Mission Bay, and that's only in a few selected spots...I believe the general rule is 10% of the area.
