Yes! Mission Bay, cheers!

What if they had built three-story buildings along the western edge to create a standing wave in the wind large enough to "skip" the rest of the development? Also, they could have shaped the whole place to guide and concentrate the wind to banks of wind generators and defrayed some of their energy costs, maybe.

We're so smart but we just don't pay enough attention and think deeply enough, IMO. The folks that made Mission Bay are not dumb, the problem must be something else.
