We have very Tall Buildings in our district and just east of these buildings we have, you know, increased entitlements up to 600 feet for the paless hotel, a thousand tarot for transbay tower, 700 feet for 181 fremont. I think what is hardest for me is we didnt have any opposition to those increases in height which had significant shadow impacts throughout the city. ~ in chinatown and union square. ~ palace its hard, then, to say not this building. Why the Transit Center [speaker not understood], really across the street from the plan itself. I think given the fact that we are working on mitigation for open space type safety, it doesnt take care of everything, but i think it is certainly significant contribution to the neighborhood.
