Mission Bay sees rapid growth spurt

Today's Examiner has a piece on the progress of both residential and commercial development in Mission Bay.

"Though market-rate condominiums at Mission Bay are fetching exorbitant prices, affordable housing is part of the mix. The agency requires 28 percent of the units to be affordable to four-person households making between $33,000 and $95,000 a year. Bringing more life sciences jobs to the area will be the next big push."

A second Examiner article discusses the housing being built around the UCSF campus.

"After a long day in the lab at Mission Bay, UCSF graduate student in biophysics Clement Chu no longer has to commute back to the Inner Sunset at 2 a.m. Instead, he can stumble across the street to his $1,030-a-month studio apartment to sleep."
