After a 7-year battle to build 331 new homes right by public transit, another SF housing project killed. But hey! The "community organizations" who murdered it — and could do it again, to any prospective buyers — are... going to bid on the land themselvespic.twitter.com/OD05kTRvRH

assuming this is relevant: i am uncertain about the talking points re new housing bringing down the cost of housing. my impression is the vicinity often becomes upcycled while ownership becomes an bullet on some diversified portfolio.

meanwhile it's not clear what the intention of the purchase is, eg it could be turned into a land trust. I wouldn't call that, nor anything liked that, corruption. at least it would be too soon to tell.

Since one of the "community organizations" that protested the development itself engages in development, and plans to acquire and develop this very property, one wonders if the opposition to the project had more to do w/ unfair competition than actual societal concern.
