- San Francisco officials hope to bring more housing to the city’s downtown with legislation proposed last month that would eliminate a zoning requirement that large mixed-use projects include a minimum amount of office space in certain areas.
- The proposed legislation is a response to changes in demand for office space and the city’s housing goals, according to a press release. The proposal is co-sponsored by Mayor London Breed and Supervisor Matt Dorsey.
- The neighborhoods that the change would apply to have seen billions of dollars in transit investments over the last decade, making them the “perfect place to add more housing,” Jesse Blout, founding partner of local real estate developer Strada Investment Group, said in a statement.
