A proposed 446-unit, 22-story condo project on San Francisco's west side has sparked opposition from local residents who fear it will disrupt the suburban character of their neighborhood. The project includes 207 units of affordable senior housing and various market-rate condos. While supporters argue the need for increased density to accommodate housing demand, critics worry about the scale of the development and its potential to inspire further large-scale changes. The tension reflects broader discussions on urban development and affordability in San Francisco's historically single-family home areas.
There's a lot of people that want to live in the west side of the city, but can't necessarily afford a single-family home. So this can provide a new price point.
Residents fear that new large-scale developments will change the suburban character of their neighborhood, which has mostly been single-family homes for over a century.
