[QUOTE=Pedestrian;8265377]Mostly I agree with you but I think that if we built tall in places like Mission Bay, Tenderloin, SOMA and along transit corridors like Geary Blvd, we could leave the historic districts of architecturally significant homes (read "Victorians" and "Edwardians") alone. There's plenty of room in the commercial districts that are not currently of any architectural value or historically important.

I would like to see more height and density not for their own sake so much as that what I love about Manhattan is its true 24 hour nature and to achieve that you need incredible population density. San Francisco, even though already quite dense on a national scale, still rolls up a lot of its sidewalks by 10 PM.[/QUOTE
