The SF Planning Commission meets Thursday, April 26, 1 p.m., in City Hall, room 400. See agenda here.
- Not GP, but instructive, I think: See item #3. There’s a six-story building going up on Chavez between Mission and South Van Ness (north side). This will be a good test to see what a tall building on a wide street feels like.
