It’s been a tough year for San Francisco. A homeless crisis, a drug crisis. The new Millennium Tower is leaning, the newer Transbay Center has structural problems and closed down right after it opened up, the traffic is terrible, and Van Ness is a mess. And this used to be the City That Knows How. There’s a lot of gloom and doom out there. An email from an old friend is typical of this view. She hates the new skyline: “giant, congested piles of glass and metal,” she called it.
