There looking towards the bay bridge and so that i think they have done the outstanding job in toning this down and building open space, and building open scaries and really providing an excellent addition to the missing place in the water front and so i urge you to move this forward, thank you.

Other pieces in terms of the residential towers of the hotel and obviously, and in this commission talks about the Traffic Congestion as well. I saw peter here, and that will be one of the key issues that the Commission Wants to address and we dont just own the arena we own the embarcadero, it effects the area and the pressure being put on it and that is not being entered today and it is under the study and i think that it is important for the public to know that what we saw today, was an update on the design and not taking any action, and we are here to make any comments to hear the public and make any comments it is going to go to a full, cac Advisory Committee meeting today and if there is any other gaps that have not been addressed, that the public feels is important, that the design team will take a look a ....

And here here to listen and i was hoping that rick was in the room because i wanted to talk to him and i was hoping to hear from the Advisory Committee because in a lot of ways it is the commission and the conscience and she has been involved in everything but i like to hear from rick, because i think that one of the questions in front f us today is San Francisco ready for primetime are we ready for primetime . Well. When this whole process started it was moving very fast. The commission and the they asked them to slow down and they regroup and i think that elder roosevelt said it best, and have you to do ....

We are still working through the lb out Reach Program and how we will engage with that stake Holder Community and where we are just starting to get going on that as we speak. And definitely, we look forward to hearing ....
Months ago, we accepted it has to be a design worthy of a site in San Francisco and number one to has to be 100 percent privately finance and no general fund money and no new tax dollars that will be allocated to make your project happen. And i guess, you know, number three, you have to embrace, the process, that is San Francisco. What you saw today we are proud of and because the engineers and doing difficult things, the last time that we presented it was the smallest arena in the nba, it took an incredible amount of work to make that smaller to craoe act to the info that we had.
