construction project, 69 acres at the foot of Potrero Hill, is a really big deal. It’s a big deal for jobs—creating up to 10,000 construction jobs and 12,000 permanent jobs. It’s big deal for housing—providing up to 2,000 units, 30 percent of them below market rate. It’s big piece of history, preserving and recycling the old industrial waterfront, a shipbuilding and ship repair hub since the Gold Rush, where steel was manufactured, and the ships that fought in two World Wars were built.
