On the whole, i am supportive of this project, and i will turn it over to the director. Thank you, commissioner. I will emphasize this is 25 affordable. It is a pretty su substantial number of affordable. To commissioner johnsons point, it is common in much of the city to have taller buildings at the corners especially in the commercial districts. It is common in the richmond and Pacific Heights with the multiple story buildings with lower rise Single Family or two family between, and because this is on a major transit line, as many of you pointed out, this felt like the right place for this amount of density.
