. >> my name is brad spau. i'm speaking as an individual. i want to address two issues, primarily this accidental zoning. what happened was the height was dropped and when the redevelopment agency went out of business it went back to some underlying zoning. ed hat feld who was part of the redevelopment agency he said one of his greatest regrets was not insisting that planning change the map to reflect the 84 feet. the reason that's important is because this is the site, those 45-foot buildings are the vast majority of the this site and when the heights were raised, the justification was not just that building to the left where we have a marry -- narrow of the 275 -foot building but the zoning around this block area. the fact that it is that way is what got us to this which is they always showed it looking towards the high rises. but time and time again it's looking from the the direction down in the water front. i just want to make one other point as to why it's silly to leave these. >> sf gov. tv. san francisco television on the overhead pr
