> “What seems to be happening is people really want to ‘stay in San Francisco,’ but they want to exit society,” Low said. “They don’t want to have to deal with the complexity, the differences, the poverty, the needs, the caring for others that was always part of urban culture. They want to escape. They want their own currency, their own culture, their own people. And they wanted it to look like Disneyland.”
>The campus would be created, in part, by gathering residents in adjacent rental properties and individually owned homes, and knocking down walls and fences and conjoining backyards — no small challenge under San Francisco’s notoriously expensive real estate market and byzantine bureaucracy.
What happens if some of these locals say ... no?
Do those locals even all own the property they live in?
Does just anyone get to live there?
As for the other examples listed, they just sound like the typical rental type situations that maybe have more common spaces? Is that all this really is?
It's not even clear to me how many "tech workers" want to do this thing. It's all very vague.
