Quotes from SF Business Times Article

A few quotes that I find interesting from the article in this weeks SF Business Times by J.K. Dineen

"The only question is affordability," he (Nat Bosa) said. "For a city like San Francisco and an area like the Bay Area, when you look at how much is under construction, it's not very much. Vancouver would blow it away. More stuff sells in Vancouver in two weekends than here in three months and Vancouver is a hell of a lot smaller city than San Francisco."

"Someday you're going to be driving across that canal and saying, 'why the hell didn't I buy back then?'" said Bosa. "The commercial is going to hum. It's going to be an ideal small city within a city where you can live, work, go to school, play in the park, all within a five minute walk. That is the ideal city of the future. Forget about tracts of houses and commutes."

But even Bosa is hedging his bets -- if only a bit.

"The worst case scenario is we get shut out and piles won't be driven on (Radiance's second phase) for a while," he said. "Why would you keep on climbing Mount Everest if the storm is coming in and it looks terrible? You might take your tent and park yourself on the side for a couple of days."
