If you want to know why the Bay Area is so fucked up, look no further than BART stations. During normal services, there are trains every 3-4 minutes between here and downtown San Francisco. Not a few stations away mind you, THE NEXT STOP is Embarcadero Station. If you live here you are SIX MINUTES away from Downtown San Francisco. What is the space used for? Parking. Not housing, not skyscrapers, not even single family homes, parking. This whole area should be gigantic affordable housing projects.
Yes. In West Oakland. Not a parking lot though. Mandela parkway
