Cranes over Market
There are an awful lot of cranes over Market Street and the rest of SF these days. Our crazy housing and rental prices, along with the ongoing boom of certain tech sectors in the City, have led to a massive construction boom. Last count I heard, there were over 20 cranes up over SF, many of which were working on future housing. Hopefully these thousands of new units will have enough impact on the supply to bring the prices down a bit, as the majority of residents I know, myself included, would be hard pressed to afford a move within SF today.
That said, with all the sacrifices we make to live in SF, there isn’t anywhere I’d rather be at the moment. I suppose we all have to make our choices and accept the consequences.
