failed? i don t regret opening it. we needed to try something different. through the tenderloin emergency, 1,000 people get shelter and housing. we reversed the hundreds of overdoses. so it didn t solve the drug crisis or the open-air drug markets. it s part of the reason why it needed to come down. what did it turn into? why did you close it? we heard of a lot of drug use, which we weren t adamantly opposed to, but it needed to lead to something. also, we were struggling because of the legalities of safe consumption sites and the federal and state laws, but more importantly for me, the big issue was the linkage of what was supposed to happen did not happen. do you think the city s policies and practices around drug use in the city are failing? it s not only just failing
