I wish they'd pursue the BRT lanes - maybe close off some non-commercial traffic around Union Square and Chinatown/North Beach instead of pursuing more tunnels with a good likelihood of having water table (flooding) problems.

remember, it takes 20 years to get anything approved around here. this project probably made more sense back when they tore down the embarcadero freeway. just like it made more sense 20 years ago to give pat kuleto that 1/3 of the open space for the two new monstrosity restaurants.

Unncessary. By the time this project can be completed, humans will have evolved into a new species capable of telepathic time and space travel. What's the point?

I'm a huge advocate of rail and I think this is the worst rail project in the known universe. They build this thing, you can forget about future rail lines in SF.

I'm guessing it's getting Fed$ because it's supposed to help the new development in the China Basin area and helping the rich get richer is what BushCo is all about, yes?

I'm amazed that the bushies would approve anything so expensive for SF with Fed $ unless they have ulterior motives. Ebola spray from the train air conditioners? Tunnels through quicksand and tar pits?

Pessimism is always rewarded.
