im honestly embarrassed this is one of the few threads we can muster for san francisco. has all skyscraper talk been reduced to speculation on when the transbay tower will start construction and replacing the fairmont rez with a HELLer manus cookie cutter piece of crap!?! /end rant

I agree with everything that you stated--rant on whenever you feel like it! Your baby has a together father.
It seems as if some people would prostitute themselves just to get anything built, as long as it is a highrise. We should demand higher standards! Modify the plans for 555 Washington to fit the site and put it up there.
