Four Safeways are closing in SF.

Align is turning Safeways into housing towers.   

Looks like Safeway wants to convert their business from groceries to real estate. Three Safeways are already closed or in the process of closing. They want to add the marina Safeway to the list. This is provably one of the worst site to building a tower. The Marina is sitting on landfill. This is where the houses fell and fires burned during the Loma Prieta earthquake. Fortunately Lurie doesn’t like this plan. What can be done to protect our grocery stores, pharmacies and banks when the land owners want to tear them down?

Arquitectonica architects said the unique design of this Marina District tower will allow it to preserve more “view corridors.”  Whose views are they protecting?

Perhaps we should ask the candidates who are running for office what their plan is for protecting what we need to survive?
