my name is ross lewis. i'm the manager of lack bar. we took over the bar in 2016 and we've created a great neighborhood bar in the downtown area which are quite a scarcity these days. we've developed a community spirit in the bar between the people who work in the area and employees that work for future bars that come there and tourists and visitors to san francisco alike. so i hope the project has a smooth transition that we can move to the new building and recreate that atmosphere there and maintain a good neighborhood bar in the downtown area. thank you. >> president melgar: thank you. next speaker, please. okay, with that, public comment is closed on this item. commissioners? >> commissioner richards: it's a great project. i'm happy to see the level of engagement, especially with the lark bar and the cass, et cetera. happy to see a historic building come back to life. i think a hotel is probably a better use for the building, given like one of the speakers said, 9 to 5 populates it's and then it's dead the rest of the time. one que
