An abandoned movie theater could determine just how much more affordable housing is coming to a key San Francisco neighborhood.
That idea has triggered lots of opinions from state leaders, city supervisors, and neighbors who walk by the building nearly every day.
Some say to bulldoze the building, others say, it's historic and at least some of it should be saved. "Definitely we do need more housing and there's only limited space in San Francisco," said Tom Chan, San Francisco resident.If the decision is to save the whole building, the developer proposes a dramatically scaled back project with just 10 units total.
Not an acceptable option for Historic Preservation Commissioner Chris Foley who spoke during last week’s regular meeting.Whatever they eventually decide, is all just part of what's often a drawn out and expensive process that slows nearly every effort to build more housing in San Francisco. City supervisors will eventually make the call on whether the 42-year-old abandoned theater is worthy of being saved, partially preserved, or completely razed and how many housing units will be approved to be built there.
