It was a crazy valuation-driven fashionable thing to have high tech offices in a city center. The whole Bay Area went from being a reasonably efficient place for high tech businesses to an irrational "that's how we do things" consequence of funders wanting everything within a stone's throw of Sand Hill Road. Urban revival is good but it was taken waaay too far and made unaffordable. "Affordable" isn't going to come back without a crisis.

Isn't SF kinda far from Sand Hill? And on slow-ass 280?
All the cool people roomed up with friends in the Mission and biked to work. Even the millionaires. That is until they got hitched.
