Progress on Octavia Boulevard housing?

The Chronicle's John King discusses some of the award winners in the contest to design new housing along Octavia Boulevard.

The structure in the photo at the left is designed to be built in the narrow lot at Market and Octavia, right next to the Octavia Lounge.

Also interesting are the details of the much larger project at Octavia and Oak, which is a full city block.
