That kind of zoning is done with a lot of thought. The zoning limit here is 40 feet, and it’s RH1. The city just found an empty plot, said “Let’s put it here,” and decided to rationalize it later.
Any neighborhood of single family homes-the Mission, Bayview, Sunset, Richmond-would be concerned to plop that down in their midst. We’re talking five stories, 50 feet, 150 units, 150 windows, and a lot of traffic going in and out. Joe Bravo: It’s about the size of the building and intensive use of the area in a neighborhood that’s zoned RH1. So we asked Joe Bravo, an attorney and Forest Hill resident of 22 years who worked on the neighborhood resolution opposing the building, just what’s so bad about the Laguna Honda Senior Apartments.Ĭurbed SF: On Monday you said “this is about saving the hillside.” What does that mean? On Monday, Forest Hill residents gathered to tell the city that they do not support a proposed 150-unit low-income housing project on a hill overlooking Laguna Honda Boulevard, in pretty certain terms.Īt face value, the project should be a sweetheart: The residents would be seniors, the developer is a religious non-profit, and most of the land is empty right now anyway.īut neighbors still say no, and even Forest Hill’s City Hall representative Norman Yee doesn’t like the look of it.
