Hey. I agree. I want LA to tear down some freeways and get rid of parking requirements and the Embarcadero Freeway was a horrible addition to the city. However, if you read what I suggested, I proposed tearing down 4 sections of freeway in the city, and building almost all the new construction underground. This also opens up the possibility of narrowing literally every SF street with more than 2 lanes per direction.
