This just in: woman who has staked her career on a pro-housing political platform announces that market-rate redevelopment is good for everyone.
The question is not “will adding N market-rate units help?” because that’s trivial. Of course it will. The question is: “what if you have to knock down N affordable units to build M market-rate units?” This “simulation” doesn’t even come close to addressing that question.
Like it or not, that’s the situation in San Francisco.
